A Nursery for my Little One

So now that we have moved into a larger apartment, I finally have a dedicated room for my little one's nursery. I can't beging to explain how excited I am about this! The first thing I needed was inspiration. So off I went in search of it. I looked in magazines, books..friends, but no luck. Finally I decided to hit my favorite blogs and found it.  I fell in love with Joni's nursery from Lay Baby Lay. This is actually her daugthers nursery. Isn't it adorable!

I love the dresser. This sent me on a hunt to find a dresser for Mayah's nursery. I love searching Craigslist and lucked out and found this beautiful dresser for $30 dollars...a steal!

Can't wait to sand it and paint it, it's going to be perfect.

A Call to the Creative Maven In You!

Hi I am Madeline, welcome to my blog.

Let me tell you a little about me. I am a single mom, I have beautiful and amazing one year old..well, I may be a tad partial. I have a large Caribbean family that keeps me entertained, a great office job that tends to be very flexible. I have a fairly busy schedule and I am usually on the run, but when I finally do get some “ME” time, I do what I really love to do. Design. I am passionate about all things design.  

Having gone to school for interior design and not being able to do something with it, feels like a total waste to me. Friends and family are always coming to me for advice and help with their home decor, and are always telling me how I should put my skills to good use.  This has inspired me to start this blog. When I am able to turn something that no one seems to want into something amazing, I feel I have achieved my purpose. Some things, just need a second chance.  

So how bout it bloggers, I am sure I am not the only one with the need to create. Do you have a room you have redesigned? Furniture you have made over?  Feel free to post.
