Extreme Makeover '09 - Project #1 (almost complete)

My project for the month of January was to get the girls room all painted and decorated how I want it.  I am really happy with how it turned out, even though there are still a few things that need to get done, i.e. the chair rail needs to be put up, and I need to clean up the paint in a few spots.  Unfortunately these things will probably have to wait until after the baby gets here.  Here are some pictures of what we have so far.  (the picts are a little dark because I took them while Joss was napping so the lights were off... think you can get the idea though)

Here is her glittery name above her crib!  I am hoping to be able to find the same letters for the baby when I know what her name will be for sure!

I finally gave in and bought the dollhouse bookshelf that I have been eyeing for a while.  It will serve as a toy storage place now.

Here is the view from the entry side of the room.  I founds some cute decals to put on the inset of the window.  I think it turned out cute!


Here is a close up of the hanging butterflies!  Don't know why... but I love them!

A little random I know, but I decided to start a collection of piggy banks for Joss.  I just always see really cute ones and thought it would be a fun collection.  Here are the 3 she has so far.  
 
And here is a cute little plaque that my SIL gave me at Joss' baby shower! 
I am REALLY happy with the outcome and can't wait until it is all complete!  As for now... I will be waiting for baby to come before I start on Project #2 - Parker & Ev's room!

So cute!!! I love how it turned out!
Where'd you find the letters for Joss' name? I like those!
I decided to do a vinyl letter plaque with the girls' names on them with I am a child of God over their names. Turned out pretty cute, I think. Just have to hang them now.
So, what names are in the running for baby girl?

My SIL got me the letters from Poppy's when Joss was born. But I have been there a couple of times since then and they still had them. Hopefully they still do! I think her name will be Ali Harper... but I can't say for positive!
