Baby Room

Hello! With not long to go until Baby Jones arrives, I thought it was time to do a little blog post on the baby room - I'll try my best to credit where items are from.

I have a few more projects ready to put up on the blog in the next month or so, so watch this space!

We wanted quite a simple room that was easy to keep tidy and that didn't require a new paint job! My theme was to use a combination of white, cream, gold and wood - with a few bits of pale pink now that we know we are having a girl.

Kids Paper Projects

I had a few kiddies to entertain the other day, so thought a few projects would fill the time nicely. I hadn't planned to blog this but grabbed a camera just after we started, so here we are! These jars were inspired by this blog I found through Pinterest. We used Mod Podge to stick on tissue paper squares until the jar was covered, and then put a layer of Mod Podge on the top to seal it.

In our second project we used the same materials but we cut letters out of thick cardboard and then covered them the same way. I hear that these letters are on their bedroom doors now. Lots of fun!

Hanging with Lydia

This little one is talented! And confident in her washi tape choosing ability! We sat down the other day to make a card for her Mummy (who is pretty cool). She chose and placed all the washi tape and wanted to stick a balloon in, and put all the pompoms in too....the girl has got style. Check out her answers to the question "what do you love best about your mummy?" I have no idea what sha-ma is but she wouldn't stop saying it until I wrote it down, so it must be something really good.

You bring me joy kid x
