Love this! I also love that everything's not perfectly put away!

These are adorable! I bought a few sets on Amazon last year and gave them as Christmas gifts. I found these robot measuring cups and will be giving them to my bachelor brother this year

Anyone know a supplier for light boxes? Those are so cool!

How about painting the short wall and slanted ceiling one color, then a contrasting color on the other walls. This would draw attention away from the short wall and give it a wrap-around effect. I hope this makes sense...

This theme is close to my heart-we did a woodland theme for my son's first b'day and his nursery is also in this theme! I'm curious about the Cricut-I've been wanting to buy something like that, but I've noticed different brands out there-do you like yours? The shirt is adorable!

I think this is my favorite nursery ever on Ohdeedoh! The crib bedding is perfect!

What a brave color combo! Orange curtains would look great, too-toning down the contrast and making the green chair pop. Great nursery!

That just looks like one of those Aerobeds with a military-issued blanket on top. It looks so cold! A colorful rug and some better furniture would add a lot to this room! I agree-it's sad.

There are always crazy days, but some "loose structure" has really helped us-especially with morning and night routines (I'm not a SAHM)

...or be inspired by "Logan's Colorful Dinosaur Room" (posted earlier today) and recreate the image on the wall-I'd totally go for that one!

How about this rug? You could try your bleach technique or if the pile is short enough, perhaps fabric paint?

This would be cool for a party or at school, but I would be disappointed if I got it in my treat bag!

I agree-every family is unique in regards to what they are comfortable with. My son (now 2.5) has always been a light sleeper and needed to be in his own room with white noise and no distractions. The first few weeks we slept in the guest room (next door to his nursery) and used a bassinet. After a few weeks we transitioned him to his crib and we stayed in the guest room for awhile just to be near (the master bedroom is across the house). So really, we are the ones that did most of the transitioning to new environments. It worked for us! Now he's in a twin bed with rails and is doing great!

This is so cute and original! I love the felt masks and how you designed the party around her specific preferences!

Could you use them as a "headboard" and place two twins under them, since it's going to be a shared space?

I say continue them to the floor and paint them out!

When we left my childhood home I put a letter with a self-addressed stamped envelope into a small hole in the wall left by the lock banging into the sheetrock. I guess one day someone will find it when they tear down the house!

I made a "wallpaper border" with our dot matrix printer-it had Kiefer Sutherlands' full name: Kiefer William Frederick Dempsey George Rufus Sutherland-see I was designing even back then!
