In june last year we were asked by our beautiful friend and neighbour Kristie if we would create a shabby nursery for her baby girl who was due in september.We were so excited we jumped straight on ebay in search of vintage nursery pieces.We were fortunate in finding a lovely old children's wardrobe as well as a pretty little side cupboard.All we had to do was add some precious embellishments, a fresh coat of mill flour paint, finished off with glass knobs.After a futile search for dainty fabrics for some custom bunting flags, pretty window coverings etc we ended up mostly using bits and pieces of our own collection.Starting with a completely empty room we began by painting the room to picture rail height in a lovely colour called
"Old Rose".
Beautiful bow embellishments found on ebay USA
Every little girl needs a chandelier in her room
Found soft shabby linens at baby bunting, along with new comforter from ebay
Nearly completed just need the new wood flooring laid
A gorgeous shabby nursery fit for a princess!!!!

Hmmm I'm going to have to ship you both here on the back of a truck, with your paint and bits and bots and creativity wrapped up in a bundle.... You girls created such a lovely space... Lucky Kristie and Evie Olive xx Ava
