Christmas Goodies
What are you getting your little ones for Christmas?
We bought Arden this adorable little red piano from Schoenhut.
It’s actually on sale for only $55 on Gilt right now too. If you’re still not a member here’s an invite link! *Update: Reader Sumi pointed out that Amazon sells the same one for a similar price as well!*
We also got her the most adorable red Tartan kilt and red wool jacket from Papo D’Anjo to wear on Christmas.
Big Buys This Week
Wow, I was a big spender this week! Have you guys checked out my sidebar lately?
I treated myself to a cashmere sweater from Haute Look, got the Mr a sweater, dress shirt and cast iron grill pan from Rue La La, bought Arden soft bamboo blankies from Gilt and got the casa the most stuff of all:
Bamboo towels, a faux fur throw, wicker trunks from the Foundary, rock on.
But my most favorite score of the week??? A new headboard from Joss & Main!
I figured we’d been living with a Cal King Bed and Queen-sized headboard for long enough. I actually just sold the queen headboard a couple of days ago. Boy did we miss having it though, I just love having a soft padded headboard to lean against when reading playing on the iPad before bedtime. The Mr and I were considering some headboards from HSN or Sears and even a DIY version. But what did my eyes see this morning when doing the rounds on my favorite daily sample sales sites? Yep, that’s right headboards galore and even in the right size: Cal King. Fate I tell you 🙂
We ended up going with the Glitz Notched Headboard, a great shape and covered in a metallic linen. How glam does that sound? All for the low price of $350. Needless to say I’m pretty excited to get our new headboard, hopefully it doesn’t take too long to ship! Our master bedroom needs some help, it’s been going through some major transitions lately. I think I need to come up with a CCC room design for it 😉
Oh and the one that got away? This gorgeous baby quilt from John Robshaw on One Kings Lane…sigh. Isn’t it adorable? It would have fit perfectly in Arden’s nursery and it was only $60. It’s the perfect amount of vintage and cuteness without being too matchy-matchy with everything else in the nursery. Oh well, I wish One Kings Lane had a wait list function like Gilt :
CCC Nursery | Bedding Update
I received the custom nursery bedding a couple of weeks ago and I’ve meaning to take pictures for you guys. I FINALLY got around to it. I absolutely love how it turned out! For those of you who are interested in your own custom sewn bedding, I used Etsy seller Noeske Notions. They did a fabulous job interpreting exactly what I wanted! The Vintage Plumes fabric is just gorgeous on the crib skirt, don’t you think? And for those of you familiar with Erika’s (Urban Grace) nursery for her little girl Sloan, you’ll definitely recognize the influence on the style of my crib bedding 😉
Here’s a little teaser for you:
 |
| Here’s an overall crib shot with the new skirt and bumper, you can even see a peak of the flokati rug I ordered from Gilt. |
 |
| A close-up of the bumper! The Sleep Sheep & Jelly Cat were presents from the baby shower! The crib sheet is just a plain white crib sheet, easy peasy. |
 |
| Detailed shot of the bumper ties. And I had to show you the adorable Burberry dress I just had to have when I spotted it at the Nordstrom Rack this weekend! Isn’t it just ADORABLE? |
 |
| And last but not least, the floor length crib skirt allows for plenty of storage underneath the crib. |
I had originally planned to paint the crib a peacock teal color, but the Mr. and I have been waffling back and forth on that. The white doesn’t look bad at all and the Mr would love to not have to paint the thing 😉 I’m still debating though…I need your input. What do you guys think? Would it be too much teal if we painted the crib?
(For those of you interested in previous nursery posts you can visit the “Baby B” label on the right sidebar!)
***Crib & Bumper Pad Disclaimer***
Thanks in advance for all of your concern with Baby B’s safety! I just wanted to assure you that I’m aware of the dangers of using crib bumpers like this. I plan to replace them with breathables once it becomes an issue. As for the crib, yes, it’s a drop-sided crib and yes we do have the kit to fix it. We haven’t gotten around to putting it on yet, but we definitely will before Baby B starts using it!
Thanks again!
Blog Update | Recent Press and Latest Purchases
I made a couple of changes to the blog this morning! Nothing too major, but I figured I’d give you guys a heads up!
I moved the “Recent Press” feature from a side bar feature to having its own separate page. You can find the link for it up on the top left of the blog.
And to replace the Recent Press feature on the sidebar, I’ve added “Latest Purchases”. This is where I’ll list my latest buys from my favorite daily deal websites:

CCC Nursery | Gilty Purchases
I had to show you some of the things I’ve found for Baby B’s nursery on Gilt lately!

And some other purchases I’ve made recently…
 |
| Organic Socks from Kee-Ka = $15 They were only $10 on Gilt. |
And last but not least! Too add a bit of fun & whimsy to the nursery, not to mention a soft place to play…
 |
|

The custom crib bedding is finally all here! The Dwell fabrics look fabulous 🙂 Can’t wait to you show you guys! Pics will be coming soon!
CCC Nursery | Update
I figured it was about time for a little nursery update! If you’ve missed previous post about the nursery click here to catch up! The Mr. & I did a lot of work and organizing over the holidays. We still have a ways to go, but it’s definitely looking more put together 🙂 There are still some things on the shopping list (changing pad, crib mattress, floor lamp…to name a few). We also need to add some more playful touches so it looks less like an adult’s room and more like a baby’s room.
The chaise will be perfect for napping & sleeping during those late night feedings. The white peacock painting has found the perfect home in this corner (Thanks again Terri!!!)
After a couple of mishaps, we finally found the perfect dresser for the room. Thank you Craigslist! I absolutely adore it. The grain in the antique oak is just so gorgeous, they really don’t make ’em like they used too. And the wavy front adds just the right amount of “girlieness” 🙂 It will double as a changing table once we get a changing pad for the top.
The unicorn poster was mine when I was a little girl. My Mom gave it to me for my 10th birthday and now our little girl gets to enjoy it too! It still needs to be hung…
Oh and how do you guys like the custom trophy cup? Most babies get a silver sippee cup or a spoon, mine gets a silver horse trophy cup 😉
This side of the room has become a catch all for now 😉 I finally decided on this shelf is from Target. I’m going to be lining the back panel with fabric, but haven’t decided which fabric to use yet…oh and I still want to get some storage bins or baskets for the bottom shelf. Don’t you just love the vintage wool coat? I found it at a vintage store for $19. It’s from the 50’s and in perfect condition. The collar and cuffs are suede! I LOVE it.
The crib makes a great storage area 😉 Oh and the bedding should be coming in later this week, can’t wait! Of course we’re still needing the mattress, lol.
This faux bamboo end table was a steal for only $30 at a sample sale. It was halfway painted white when I bought it. The Mr. did a great job painting it a glossy black. Sooo much better.
A handy iPod dock for some soothing music for baby. And a cute peacock blue tealight holder also a gift from Terri @ La Dolfina!
I bought the chandelier from Pottery Barn Teen and it was exactly what I was searching for. It was a breeze to install and adds the perfect amount of sparkle to the room with out being too stuffy.
I couldn’t resist this little guy when I saw him on Gilt…He’s the perfect mini-version of Cristof! He has little wheels in his hooves and makes a cute (and surprisingly not annoying) neighing sound when you squeeze his ear.
