XP: Dr Seuss nursery in progress...

in Nurseries and Baby Gear
The work in the nursery has (finally) begun. With the help of my classroom overhead projector, we traced a scene from The Lorax and then DH and FIL (who do decorative painting for a living) are filling in the colors and doing the outlining. They say the black outlines will be the most difficult - so I may leave the house during that time! I'm just so excited to see the finished product, but I also wanted to share some of the work that's going into it.

    Ok...so I don't know how to add words AND do PIP...so...

    We used my classroom overhead projector to project a scene from The Lorax on the wall (the cribs will go on this wall) and then DH and FIL have started the painting. ?I'm pretty much banned from painting - especially if the drop cloth doesn't cover where I'm standing! :) ?

    We're planning to put a quote in the cloud...but I haven't picked one yet. ?I'm definitely open to suggestions though! ??

    "Today you are you, That is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you." I can't remember which book it's from. But it's dr Seuss!

    Looks awesome so far!

     DITTO!  I love that quote. It's from Happy Birthday to You. 

    The wall is amazing!  Can't wait to see the rest.

    We got the Dr. Seuss sheets - totally where I go the Dr. Seuss idea from.  I saw the sheets in the store and it jsut clicked!  I wanted breathable bumpers...so that was out.  I'm making seersucker dust ruffles for the cribs to kind of keep the PB feel (they had stripes and plaid with the sheets). 

    Thanks for the kind words!  Hopefully it will be done this weekend!!!

    Wow! That is SO cool. I love it.

    Here are some quotes I found..

    Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.?

    A person's a person, no matter how small.

    Adults are just obsolete children and the hell with them. (Just KIdding, lol)

    I'll bet that "Oh the places you will go" has some good ones too.
