Nursery Love.

There is something so exciting about setting up a nursery and dreaming of what's to come. 

I follow Kyree over on Instagram and this week she revealed her baby's room. 

The gender is going to be a surprise so this room can be adapted to either sex. I love the neutral tones, the cosy corners and all of the little details on the shelves.

You can see the full tour and her mood boards over on Kyrees blog here

I've shared a few photos of the nursery below -

Did you find out the sex of your baby while pregnant?
 For our first we kept the surprise and then found out early with our other two.

Saturday Night.

This is how we spent our Saturday night, setting up a train set :)

Simon's parents have sold their home and are moving into a unit near the beach. They are in the process of packing up their house  so we are inheriting lots of toys they bought for the grandkids but will no longer have room for.

Finn used to play with this train set when he was younger and now it's Jasper's turn and then we will pack it away ready for the new baby.

I love the idea of keeping toys in the family. 

(not that it usually happens around here, too many broken toys, missing game pieces)

Do you have a toy/game that has been in the family for a while?

Project Jasper's Room.

 Jasper's room as been a project that I have been wanting to tackle for a few months now.


My inspiration!

My little boy is almost 4 and it is time for a clean out and time to put away those toys that he has lost interest in.Time to say goodbye to Thomas the Tank Engine and all his friends, cuddly stuffed toys (of course the favourites will stay!)

a wall map is a must!

 Some fresh colours and a little reading nook for him to enjoy some quiet time with his beloved books. I also want to use some of my prints (and others) plus Jasper's drawings to create a little gallery wall as well.

love this idea of rain guttering used as book shelves

Ahhh the planning stages are so much fun!

I'm loving the idea of a colour combination of blue and green with a splash of red. Ok, time to order that wall map!

Have a beautiful day

Ps - I can't bear to give/throw away his baby toys so they will be living in a box in the garage, I love the idea of saving some of Jasper's toys for his children. Ahhhh, imagine!
