Grey's room

It is done. And Spencer is a magician. To be exact. They told us the horizontal planks wouldn't work because the wall with the window is actually two inches shorter than the wall with the door entrance... gotta love old homes. BUT it was done. And is everything that I pictured in my head at night. Thanks to my main squeeze... and of course my mother and I added a few things.



{Bedding is from Land of Nod.}

  • I got the Peter Pan paintings from a toy store in town...
they were originally in Hudson's room when he was born.
  • The curtains my mother whipped up for me,
  • The material I bought at a discount fabric store
{don't mind that I have an extra 4 yards... I swear my head is in lala land most of the time. When the guy asked how much I needed I said "Oh 9 yards"... ummmm nope Whitney, all you needed was 9 feet. But whatever. I am a little embarrassed.}.

  • Changing Table was Hudson's original.
  • We painted it with Sherwin William's Rushing River and bought new hardware.
  • Hardware is from Anthropologie.
  • The cute paper fans are from Grey's shower.
The Owl Art is something I made.
  • The frame is from Ikea, and then owls are little punched out papers on thick adhesive tape dots. Worked out great.
  • All birds were stenciled and hand painted.
{Don't mind the picture is lop-sided}


  • Light is from Lights Plus
  • Alphabet poster was a gift for reagan, but works out great in Grey's room as well.
Find it here.
  • Horse and Beehive were bought at Home Goods
  • "The Son of a King" was a gift from my ever so talented sister Aarean.
Find her here.


Spencer and I have decided we are probably going to take down the shelf... it is too much for us. Instead I will hang the "Son of a King" by the alphabet poster and figure it all out. I am not sure.



Then there is the best piece... this little love. All cozied up and nestled in bed.

That turned out so cute! The colors are so serene. My favorite is the Owl Art. Then the baby just makes it perfect.
