I think this wall has been decorated and redecorated more than any other in my 50+ year old home.
When envisioning the kids' room before they were born (yep, back two years ago), the image included black and white newborn photos. An old friend was just taking her photography to the professional level when Michael and Sophie were born and captured some remarkable images of my little buds. I made and ordered a photo book and various prints here and there, and even included a couple close-ups of the babies' feet in the scrapbook page frames I did hang on the wall. But that really wasn't what I had in mind when I stared at those nursery walls with my belly out to there. I admittedly have an addiction to redecorating in small ways, but when I look at this arrangement I sigh, finally satisfied by its simplicity and the appropriate display of a couple of my favorite photos.

I was happy to find frames in the same antiqued bronze finish of the dresser knobs for a good price over Thanksgiving weekend. They look darker in these pics.
The box shelves and scrapbook frames that were previously above the dresser will reappear in the playroom in the coming days. I do love those.
Love, love, love it!
ReplyDeleteI know where you're coming from too. There are so many spaces in our house that just aren't the vision that's in my head. Some re-do (or in some cases "do") is much needed.
