Chickie's Nursery (Part 7)

I originally wanted to have a Winnie the Pooh themed nursery for Chickie, but when I actually went to start looking for various items, the quality of the products I was finding just wasn't as cute as I had envisioned. I have a few Pooh bear stuffed animals, and the beautiful Winnie the Pooh quote to display behind Chickie's crib, but that's about it, at least for the time being. One of my favorite craft websites is etsy, and while I was looking for cute Winnie the Pooh stuff, I actually came across a lot of really cute owl decor - not that I want the theme of Chickie's nursery to be exclusively owls, but at least it's a starting point. The chains on the ceiling fan in the room are all broken and beat up, so I placed an order for two new owl chains. In an effort to remain gender neutral, both owls will have green wings (not pink) and dark brown heart-shaped feather on their bellies. I decided to keep the heads blue because we have a blue couch in the nursery anyway, plus I happen to LOVE the color blue, so I'm thinkin' it will work well for a boy or a girl. I also ordered this hedgehog woodland light switch cover. I think it will tie in nicely with the bedding I found, which also happens to have an owl and a hedgehog on it. I'm still in the process of searching for some cute prints to add a little excitement to the walls, but I don't want to overdo it on the owls, so we'll see what else etsy has to offer!
