Our baby boy's due date is getting close!! The countdown is officially on with only one more week to go! We decided not to convert an entire room into a nursery right away so we chose to put the baby furniture pieces in the guest room along with a few decorations. I've been working on a few projects for the gallery wall above his crib, one being the deer silhouette you see pictured below.
I made the pallet sign and then stained it before painting the deer.
I saw the saying "Be strong in the Lord little man" on Pinterest and thought it would be perfect for a nursery gallery wall. When I went back to PA for the baby shower, Mommy had seen the saying when I pinned it and she painted it for shower decor and then gave the canvas to me. I found the frame at Hobby Lobby (the week frames were 50% off - win!!)
The wooden arrow above the sign was another fun Hobby Lobby sale find.
Aunt Jennifer painted this sweet sign for our little guy.
One of the ladies I used to work with painted this amazing slate sign for the baby. Judy is very talented in all things painting/card making/crafts! I learned so much from her in the year we worked together.
The covered space you see on the gallery wall is where a cutout of his first initial is hanging. I hot glued twigs on the letter to add a little finishing touch but I edited it for the picture since we are keeping his name under wraps until his arrival! :)
The antler mount on the wall is from the first whitetail Justin shot two years ago. I will also be hanging a small dream catcher in the empty space on the left between the other arrow and slate sign.
Disclaimer* This is NOT the baby's initial (capital "NOT" for the benefit of certain family members *ahem* Daddy, Hope, Joy...) This is just a picture of the letter off Pinterest where I got the idea! :)
We were given this diaper changing table so it is in the guest room as well.
I got a matching diaper changing cover to match the crib sheet.
Now to just patiently wait a little while longer until our little man arrives!!
