We decided to go pretty simple in our nursery decoration.  Firstly, because we didn’t want it to be too “baby” and have to redecorate the room in 2 years.  Second, because we’re on a budget, so we picked the stuff that would give us the biggest bang for our buck.

I chose a tree wall decal from KinkyWall on Etsy.  They were great to work with, and the decal shipped really quickly!

I started by cutting out all the separate pieces of the vinyl, and then Adam and I taped everything up to see how it would look. 

Once we figured out how high to place the sticker, it was all a matter of peeling, sticking, rubbing, and peeling again.  A tedious process for sure, but well worth it!

We had to match the branches to the trunk, and then hang the picture line across the crib.  Here’s the finished project:

See all those leaves? We had to stick each and every one on individually.  So it’s a little more sparse than the image on etsy, because I was just too tired to keep sticking leaves!

I have to find some pictures to put in those ‘frames’ – I think it will be great for baby to see the faces of her loved ones every day, even it they’re not around!
