I was really surprised how cleanly cut and intricate they all were. He does heaps of flowers and trees etc that he doesn't have listed. He sent me a PDF of them and they are gorgeous. I'm going to order some more.

So I'm still here... and managed to have a productive morning.
Here's a pic of the photoboard I made for the nursery (excuse all the belly pics... I look forward to replacing them with pics of bubs when he or she finally arrives!).
And here's a pic of the other side of the room with the cot all made up. My friend made the amazing Incy Wincy Spider quilt. The set of three canvases are some I painted quite early on this pregnancy. The wall to the right is where I've now put up the photoboard. Oh yeah, and as our surname is 'Cammell' (pronounced cam-ELL) we picked a camel mobile for baby Cammell

Wow Kristy, it just looks so fabulous. I love all the colours!
Jealous of the lovely set of drawers you have. We don't have any drawers, and not really any room, so I am using one of those plastic sets from the Warehouse! Not classy....
Is your cot a Touchwood?

That's a beautiful cot. So you don't know what you're having? The colours you've gone for would be great for either.

Thanks  Nope, still don't know - and I'm REALLY dying to find out now!! Either way I figured bright was good - I like my bright colours as you can see
Yep, the cot is a touchwood Laurie. My parents got it for us so we feel quite spoilt as we couldn't have afforded a new one otherwise The drawers came from Trademe for $90 - we're really stoked with how perfectly they match!

I like brights as well. I was going to do a soft pastel room but did a bit of research and bright colours are fantastic for stimulating little minds. Funny that they say the best colours for a newborns room is strong black and white contrast.

Thanks BooBoo. Yep - they're actually pegs my SIL bought for a game at my baby shower, I think they were just home brand or basics. They came in mixed packs of white, pink, blue and green. I originally thought I'd need to buy some little pegs to make it work, but was very pleased to find that the regular sized ones were perfect
Dagster - I think we put the cot up when I was about 30wks along... it was actually great to use for storage of baby things while I was sorting the room. I only made it up with sheets/quilts last week. So if you feel like putting yours up now, then I say go for it!

I had Alis room made up since I was 20wks preg. I had to do SOMETHING to make the time go a bit quicker. And it looked so cute!
Although now that DH put her cot in next to our bed, Aliana's bedroom has turned into a storage area again 
I think im now inspired enough from reading all your posts to clean it out and do something about it!

We have the cot up and it is full of nappies and teddys lol. DH says I cant put the sheets on because they will just need washing again and its a waste of time at the moment  .
If I put the nappies in the nappy bag now they will still be fine when bubs is born right?? I mean they dont need to stay in the huggies wrapper do they?

the nappies will be fine! and we put the duvet in her cot because another 20wks is a long time to look at a bare mattress and it only takes a min to wash them closer to the time.  Even if she is going in a bassinet first
