My Latest Vision

One of my most favorite things is decorating my home. I think I should have gone to school to be an interior designer, not a PE teacher...anyways. My latest vision is of my baby's bedding. I love Black and White/Cream. So naturally I decided to do his bedding in Black and Cream. Another bonus of this is that we will be sharing a room with our little guy when we move in with Brian's parent's this summer, so his stuff will match a lot of what I already have. But back to the vision. I found this Houndstooth fabric a few weeks ago at JoAnne's Fabric, but our local store didn't have enough of it. So my sweet friend Tara found it for me in Spokane (75 miles North of where we live). The small Damask I had another friend, Shannon, pick up for me in Clarkston (30 miles South of where we live). So when these two fabrics come together the Houndstooth will be the bumper pad, and the Damask will be the bed skirt. I am so excited....I will most definitely post the finished project.

Talented and ambitious! I love the material you chose. I can't wait to find out what we are having so I can start designing a baby and sibling room (depending on what the baby is boy/girl). I love blogging too. Kris is so fun she lived across the street from me and it was funny when we made the connection that we both knew you.

Seriously, I wish I had that knack. I am terrible at decorating. If you're ever in Utah, Spanish Fork area, let me know and you can come give me a few pointers. I need all the help I can get. I love damask stuff! Are you getting a black crib?? I think that would be way cute.

Keep us posted on Baby Boy Rupp.
