Thanks! Those are from Ikea. They can be hung in a traditional L shape or in the V.

what did you use for the cover for the chair? I need to re-do mine as well...I looked online and couldn't find any places that sold covers for under like 200$ and I dont' really want to spend that much...

I made the covers. I had actually bought the brown fabric to make shades but decided to buy shades instead b/c it's a PITA to make roman shades and I was running out of energy. It worked out since I wasn't expecting the glider until a couple of weeks ago when my sister realized she had a glider in one of her spare rooms and offered it to us.

Wow, I love this!!! We were thinking of doing an aqua or green color for our nursery and this just seals the deal. Congrats - it is beautiful. Where did you get your crib?

It's a hand-me-down from my sister. A lifetime crib made by Baby's Dream. We actually left the drop gate off the front for now since you can't use the "drop" mechanism once you have converted the crib to a toddler or double bed (which my sister had done) and I'm a little on the short side. Once he's no longer a newborn, we'll add the stationary piece back to the front.
