DIY Name Blocks
One of my favorite DIY's in Bella's nursery are her name blocks! I've gotten some request on what supplies I used. So here they are!
Supplies:
~ 2 Kinds of Martha Stewart Paint - Michael's ( I used Ballet Slipper Pink and Rose Gold )
~ Paint Brush
Directions:
I painted three sides pink. Then after it dries, I placed the letter sticker on the middle side. Then I painted the other three sides including the letter side {total of four sides } rose gold. The pink sides were on the right and left side of the letter and the rose gold was on the top, front, bottom and back. After the paint dries, remove the stickers.
Enjoy!!

Lacey White Bump!
In my final weeks of pregnancy, this dress fit perfectly! I loved the cascading lace, open back and it had just enough room for my bump! Any pregnant woman knows, that it's hard to find comfortable clothing in the last few weeks! To top it off, this isn't a maternity dress, so I can wear it many more times! (My baby boy wanted to get in on the photo shoot too! ;))

Bella's Dreamland
It's what I've dreamed of! Designing my baby girls nursery! So my inspiration....a dreamland. I filled the space with stars, unicorns, floating feathers, wings and anything else that had to do with the sky. As a little girl, I was always a dreamer and that part of me still exists. I hope my baby girl never stops being a dreamer.
So here's her dreamland.....

DIY Baby Monthly Age Blocks
Our baby girl is almost here and I just finished the last of my DIY projects last night. I'm in full nesting mode as our due date is tomorrow!! Anyone that's had a baby knows how crazy fast they grow and how special it is to get a photo or a thousand each month! Here's a little DIY tutorial for a monthly age block set!
Or you can purchase them here on my Etsy Shop!
Supplies:
2" Square Unfinished blocks {Michael's}
1 - 2" x 6" Long Square Unfinished Block { Michael's ~ near the wood plaques and other wood supplies.. My husband also cut it a bit shorter with a saw }
1 Pack of Letter & Number Stickers {Michael's}
2 to 3 Colors of Paint ( I used Martha Stewart Wedding Cake White and Rose Gold) {Michael's}
Paint Brushes in varying sizes
Directions:
Once the blocks have dried apply the numbers and letters. On one block I did: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and on the other I did 0, 1, 6, 7, 8, 9. For the longer piece of wood, I did week, weeks, month and months.
After the stickers are attached, paint the blocks again with the same background color. Let dry.
After the blocks are completely dry, the stickers should be stuck on very well. Paint just the number and letters with another color paint of your choosing or your alternating color.
That's it!!
Enjoy!
