Nursery

Many of you have been asking how the Narnian Nursery is shaping up. Thanks to many wonderful people, it's looking gorgeous! Mom and Dad painted the walls in various shades of spring green to start.

The room is oddly shaped, and opens into a little nook.
Walking through the door is like going through the wardrobe into the forest with the lampost burning softly. The trees are a rub-on transfer called Tatouage. Due to the roughness of the walls, they didn't quite go on smoothly, so Aunt Patti used her painting skills to touch them up to perfection!


Continuing around past the nook, we have the changing table and window. The built-in dresser is to the left behind the crib. The butterflies on the wall were made by myself and Grandma Pearl years ago. The mermaid wall hanging was made by one of my co-workers.


Here's the crib and the other tree. An assortment of Narnian animals,
including Aslan, Jewel the Unicorn, Mr. Beaver, Fledge the winged horse and Eustace as a dragon watch over the crib. The quilt was made by my best friend Jamie, and is embroidered with lions, crowns and swords with
"Princess Anya" on the reverse side.
