Down on the Farm

We are most of the way through decorating our daughter's room. Several months into the pregnancy, we decided on a theme for her room, regardless of whether she was a girl or a boy. We liked a particular website: www.whatisblik.com. Particularly, we were smitten with a farm theme from the company's "Wee Gallery." It seemed to make sense, since Scott comes from strong agrarian roots. I come from a line of coal miners, but lumps of coal on the wall seemed inappropriate for our little one. Plus, no artist was creative enough to think of that one yet. I'll have to write to the company with the suggestion.

The wall decor is actually "stik-on" decals, which can be removed and "re-stuk" elsewhere, if you ever need to change the decor. So, what you see on the walls below is our creative license (using the website as our example) for our daughter's walls.

Please forgive the crib filled with all sorts of baby things. It's kind of our storage spot right now until we get an actual mattress for our daughter to sleep on.

I'm not exactly Vanna White, but I still think I'm displaying our new wall quite proudly!

Scott stands on the other side of the room holding her piggy bank and showcasing the other farm scenario.

Don't you just feel like throwing on your overalls and baling some hay?
