My amazing husband built our son the most beautiful room!
The process...
His friend Mark came to help on the first day (THANK YOU MARK) and then it was up to Brent to finish on his own. I really wasn't much help in there at all.
You wouldn't know unless you've tried it, putting up bead board is NO SMALL CHORE! Nail guns, caulking, painting, jig saws, rasps, miter saws, small crowbars, sawhorses, and many more tools are necessary. Brent's kept telling himself two bits of wisdom that the Morrissey's gave him. 1) Perfection is the enemy of completion
2) Caulking will be your best friend, it fixes everything
But in the end... it's all worth it!!! His room is truly amazing!Notice the new frame around the window... and our new rocking chair!
His bookcase filled with toys and books and blankets already! And his very own little chair from the Fullmers!
New paint on the walls, bead board, new chair rail and even new base boards!The painting on the wall was a gift from my parent's friend, Allyson who is amazingly talented with watercolor. And the changing table, a wonderful blessing from my grandma June.
His crib! And the letters for his name from Aunt Gena.
More of the detail... frame around the window box, the bead board, new mirrored closet doors, and of course, monkeys!
The picture of Brent and his grandad apparently hung over his grandparents bed for more than 20 years. Now we have it and we thought it only right to put it in Asher's room since Brent loved his grandad so much!
WE ARE READY for you... come now little man!

Awesome nursery! I knew ya'll would create an amazing room for that little guy.
The picture of Brent & Granddad definitely made me smile. Its probably a much more appropriate place for the picture now than it was over their bed for 20 years...haha.
