the coziest room...

the coziest room in our house right now just might be miss iz's room - it's quaint and just the right size for her little 8 month old self. with the surprise news of her existence came the surprise news of  "we need another bedroom" ...which screamed budget and "oh crap!" to me ...but i love what we created and it's a creation that we put together with very little money- a family friend, carol, who is an amazing seamstress, helped me create her room before her birth... i have shown bits and pieces of her room in previous posts to show my frugal finds, but a few have asked to see the entire room -- so let's take a little tour

i purchased the mobile at a childrens' resale shop for $6 and

 i made the purple arm cover to have it match the room decor

handmade curtains - i picked out the fabric, carol did the sewing!

love the miracle sign, a gift from my mom - so true in izzy's case!

bird and birdcage - fun little garage sale finds!

my great grandma's dresser waiting to be painted or refinished in my "free time" (year 2020)

and if you've been reading my blog for awhile now, you are tired of seeing this picture -- my $1 garage sale table and my free curbside lamp which i doctored up with some purple spraypaint.

and this little bug that gets to call this room her own, she's just priceless!

(and if you are presently creating a nursery,

be sure to take a look at spearmint baby

which showcases some adorable nurseries)
