Special Edition of CRIBZ

Today, we provide an insider view of little baby Evie's nursery, where the magic happens! Marc and his brother Wally built a wall in the middle of the master bedroom and created a whole new room (keeping the guest room available for visitors!). Marc painted the room in the "Winding River" color and even included a door so that Evie can have her privacy when needed!


The theme of the room is based on Dr. Seuss' "Oh, the Places You'll Go" book (one of Katrina's favorite Dr. Seuss tomes, who by the way attended Marc's alma mater, Dartmouth). Note the stenciling above the crib (Katrina's first attempt), artwork from the book, and funky Ikea lamps.

Marc likes to rock Evie to sleep after a night-time feeding in her little rocker. Note the extensive book collection, and thanks to everyone who contributed their favorite books to the library! Although she was a much more captive audience when Marc would read her a story every night before she was born, Evie will certainly be an avid reader in the years ahead.

Here is the decoupage bench masterpiece created by Evie's unofficial aunties, Mel and Lillian, showing off their Martha Stewart skills. What a wonderful piece that Evie can treasure forever!
