Hello and Happy Thursday!
Today I'd like to introduce you to my new blog friend Aimee.
Aimee is a self-proclaimed, "do-it-yourself girly-girl with a head full of ideas and fingernails perpetually splattered with paint".
I was so excited when she emailed me about her latest reno project.
She used our reading room as inspiration...
...as inspiration for her recent nursery make over.
Check it out!
Before...
After...
From ripping out the old paneling and ceiling tiles, to installing new windows, to completely re-wiring the room- Aimee really created a beautiful room for her baby-
don't you think?
For the full story, and more before and after shots, head on over to Aimee's blog:
My Pink Life
And Aimee, if you're reading this, way to rock that re-do girl!
Now on to the free stuff!
If you dig the vinyl "wall words" in Aimee's nursery, you will love today's giveaway!
Leen the Graphics Queen
has offered to give one lucky TLC reader a $50 Gift Certificate to use on the graphic(s) of your choice!
All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post between now (Thursday, May 27th, 2010) and Monday (May 31, 2010 at noon CST).
And, yes, she can create custom graphics too.
Remember the number 3 she made for me?
All I had to do was tell her the size and font I wanted, and voila!
Instant vinyl awesomeness!
Good luck!

What a beautiful nursery! And I love the quote she used - just stunning!
I love vinyl! It's amazing how far vinyl has come isn't it? I remember when I first saw it years ago it wasn't even available in your local craft store, only online exclusively. Now it's just everywhere and it's so artisitic! Love the room and your platter too! suzie
What a lovely nursery and such a meaningful phrase! Congrats to them.
Layla, hope your weekend is wonderful and thanks so much for the giveaway...:-)
Andi
What a pretty nursery it is so calming.
I would love to try some vinyl I haven't tried that out yet.
Layla - I LOVE your blog. I am so excited when I see on my reader that you have a new post.
Oooo! I hope I win. I have been coveting something like this for awhile!
Love the nursery! So soft and pretty,without being overly babyish :) The wall letters and the tree are great. I have been longing to put some of those in my home. I was thinking of up the stairs maybe! :)
Ooooh, what an adorable nursery, and what a makeover that was! Thanks for sharing the cuteness.
Also - Love vinyl decals and have been wanting to try one out...so thanks for offering this giveaway!

Beautiful nursery (and divine inspiration!). Congrats to Aimee...I'll definitely check out her blog. Thanks, Layla! (And, if I should happen to win the Leen the Graphics Queen Giveaway, I know exactly what saying I'd like to have her create for me...I might even design a kitchen around it!)

so lovely, so inspiring! thank you for sharing! oh, and i'm in *dire* need of a 'welcome' for my freshly painted (well, soon to be!) front door. Thank you! xo
BEAUTIFUL!! I don't like the commercialized theme rooms either. This room is very calm and peaceful. Definitely what a new baby needs!! Layla and Kevin continue to inspire me as well!! I look forward to reading your adventure stories every morning with my coffee!! :o)
Love the nursery and the vinyl! Man, those wide stripes are SO COOL. I am thinking of doing that to an accent wall in our living room. :)
Thanks for sharing the nursery and of course the giveaway! Fingers crossed....love your blog.
First of all, there are way too many comments to read them all, so I might repeat what someone else has already said. Anyway, I really love your blog! I started reading it after my cousin/friend and I figured out we have similar taste in home decor. Aimee your new nursery is super cute! I hope to have one that looks like it someday. Layla, thanks so much for giving great ideas and pictures in the first place!
Seriously?!?! That nursery and your reading nook are both gonna get ripped off when I get to do my son Noah's room. SO PRETTY and the colors are so peacefull.
Great giveaway as well. Thanks for the opportunity to win. My fingers are SO CROSSED!
Straight up awesome nursery! We are expecting our first baby so I really enjoyed taking a peek at anothers nursery. LOVE the song quote they used too!! Thanks for the giveaway!
Aimee did do a great job on that nursery! So beautiful!!
I'm looking forward to getting some lettering for my bedroom wall. I love the sparrow quote.
I love this candle stick idea! I have been want some floor-sticks forever...what a great idea :D
Very cute nursery. I always love kids rooms with words orwriting incorporated into the design.
The nursery is beautiful and she picked a wonderful room to use as her inspirattion.
I've been wanting to buy some vinyl numbers for my front door!! I hope i'm lucky enough to win!!
Vinyl graphics? Yes please! And that nursery certainly is inspiring!
I am a huge fan of typography in decorating. It's just a fun way to add whimsy to a room. My favorite way to use lettering and numbers is in a random way - such as the #3 on your flea market find!
Thanks for sharing!
Love the nursery and LOVE the wall decals! I want to put some vinyl trees on my daughter's bedroom wall to give it a "garden" feel.
That was an awesome nursery. I would love to be entered.

I also love the tree mural in this nursery.

I just love the way phrases look in room like the nursery. I am especially intrigued by putting words on mirrors!! How nice to be doing a 'give away'!!
