Saela's Room

The Theme: What Happened After Mom had a Mild Anxiety Attack in Target

I was in Target a few days ago rushing around so I could get home and unpack the never ending sea of boxes in our home when I came upon this bedding set. I had noticed it a number of times thinking I should just get that someday. All of a sudden, I panicked thinking my poor daughter is going to go her whole life with nothing on her walls while I wait for "someday." So I cruised through the Target aisles like a mad woman and this is what I came up with:

The wall lettering is hard to see in the picture but it says "Sweet Dreams". The bedding is "Olivia" by Dwell Studio - you can see it more closely on Target's website if you are so inclined. The wall stickers match the bedding.


When you walk in the room the crib is on the same wall as the door just to your left and you are facing the window. The left wall as you are facing the window has the dresser pictured above. The right wall has the closet and the "S" you'll see pictured below.

This "S" was made for us by our friend Jen who lives in the Chicago area. It fits in perfectly!

All in all I don't think it turned out too badly. It's simple and neat - just what I like and there are no nail holes in the walls so we can easily change her to a different room down the road.

Wow, her room looks beautiful...very girlie. Unlike my daughter's room it's very neat and tidy...Just give it some time..hahaha..I just wanted to say that I was sorry that I missed you and your family while you were up here visiting. I was looking forward to meeting my beautiful niece...she is so gorgeous. I was very busy that week. I did get the web address from your mom though and have just started one for Katrina. If you like you can stop by, it's definately not as fancy as yours but I am extremely addicted to it and hopefully it will look better soon. Take care and congratulations on your daughter. Sincerely, Alicia

P.S. I think my blog address is babygirlkkt.blogspot.com but don't quote me cause I am tech. slow hahaha

I love the room! Decorating the nursery has been one of my favorite things.
