Whoa …. how are we already through May? And how is it that I am supposed to have a baby in 5 weeks? It blows my mind! Well – before we get too far into into June I thought I would wrap up my favorites from the past month - both here and from around the web!
DIY and Crafty Goodness
Since we are in the home stretch for getting the Lil Man here I worked on a lot of projects for the nursery! For starters – I made some custom name art for his room. And yep I did two versions – one for the blog and one with his real name. Because I am crazy like that!
Next I made a custom crib skirt for our crib. I love the bright colors we have going on in the nursery!
Finally – we got our dresser refinished! I still can’t believe the before and after on this one! I am so in love with with new hardware!
Inspirational Ideas
I shared some great ideas with you guys on how to make sure you won’t miss out on decorating up for your ceiling. I love this idea for using a little molding on the ceiling.
From Around the Web
I love this monogram pillow tutorial from Jen @ Scissors and Spatulas! No fancy cutting machines here – just a little old fashioned freezer paper! You are going to love this one!

This was too cool – “paint” your own vintage blue mason jars! I have one of the vintage ones and I am always on the look out for more while I am thrifting. But these are a great way to reproduce the look for a fraction of the price and with out all the hunting! Celeste @ My Greenbrae Cottage was responsible for coming up with this great idea!
