The boys did come first... before all the pink princess stuff. Joe's nursery was in primary colors and transportation themed. We were very happy with how it turned out with all our thrifty finds and generous gifts from Grandma. Matthew's nursery was softer and farm-themed with the sweetest rug! When it was time for Brooke to arrive, the two boys moved in together. And they share this space. With another boy on the way, and my "Nesting" bug... I am determined to get their mural done... It has been a work in progress a little too long. The mural was inspired by artist, Jessie Hartland.

Thomasville dresser- free from Craigslist, we painted it navy
table and chairs- from Grandma, w/new spray paint on chairs (WalMart's generic spray paint are perfect for PBK look-alikes)
tab top curtains- Pottery Barn Kids
Pottery Barn rug- on clearance and was $175
airplanes on ceiling- from HomeGoods
Hot air balloon- made by Authentic Models
Camp dresser- $180 each from Pottery Barn Kids outlet in Memphis (totally worth the trip)
we painted the ceiling, just like we originally did in Joe's nursery, but without the details... I would really like to put fiber optic lighting into the ceiling and it might be on my to do list still.
