Nursery

Before we even knew what we were having, I already envisioned the nursery.  I knew exactly what I wanted for a boy or for a girl. The inspiration for Baby Fowler's room is a throw pillow from Target.  It is champagne with lavender velvet flowers.  I did not choose this pillow from the kid's section, and that's because the nursery will not be your typical baby nursery.  No sleeping teddy bears, no moons, no stars, no butterflies, and most importantly no pastels.  My daughter's room will be classy, chic and sophisticated.  The lavender I speak of is not the pastel purple you see in the kid's section; instead, it is a deep, almost grey lavender that I will pair with eggplant purple.  The curtains I have already purchased look like silk and have both shades of purple in them.
Today, we purchased a gorgeous side table that is distressed antique white.  We also bought some great accessories for the room.  Prior to going shopping today I had a rather affordable crib picked out from JCPenny.  But, I have since found a much more expensive crib that is exactly what I had in mind.  It is distressed antique white, and it screams shabby chic.  Unfortunately, the cost of this newly discovered crib will exceed the cost of the JCPenny crib plus mattress by at least $100.  So what is a girl to do?  Buy the more expensive aka perfect crib of course.
