Gentry's Room

I am just now getting around to posting pictures of Gentry's room because it is FINALLY (almost) finished. It has been at the stage in these pictures since last October. As soon as we found out we were expecting a little boy, the bedding was on order. Then we found furniture we liked and ordered it as well. We then chose a paint color and voila, our guest room became Gentry's nursery. The only thing missing was a shelf/storage system for all of his books, toys and other items he was already accumulating. We found a shelf at Target that we really liked the design of but it was made of a REALLY cheap laminate and did not come in a color to match the furniture we had already chosen. Luckily, my boss at the time, has an incredibly talented father-in-law who actually custom made an exact replica of the cheap Target shelf for Gentry's room. It was stained to match his furniture and it looks amazing! I have yet to take a picture of it but I will post a photo in the next entry I do. The next entry will also include the last finishing detail of little man's room. I wanted to put Gentry's name above his crib but I didn't want to do the expected wooden block letters that you see so often now. Instead, I found a really neat vinyl graphic in "varsity" font to match the sports decor. Brian jumped at the chance to make it since he basically makes stickers for a living! Little did we know how busy he was going to be and how much work this little graphic would be. Needless to say, it is now June and there is still no graphic above his crib! BUT...I finally gave in and ordered it online and it should be here this week! I am beyond thrilled!!! As soon as it arrives and is on the wall I will post photos!
