And Baby Makes FOUR!

Portfolio meetings are one of the perks of my job. It gives me the chance to meet the family, see the nursery-in-progress and basically just be able to witness the amazing time before baby arrives, when there's a lot of love and emotions on overdrive!

I have been especially fortunate when a family invites me to return for baby number two...or three! Then I get to see the family at several stages from bumps to babes and beyond. This is the case with the "C" family of three, about to be four! Months ago they announced that Baby Number Two is on the way and they are ready for a new set of Pottery Barn inspired canvas.

A beautiful choice of baby bedding titled, Cottontail Friends led to this set of five canvases; complete with Daddy Lamb, Mommy Bunny, sibling ducks and chicks. A banner scroll at the top and bottom of the center canvas makes room for baby's name and birthdate information.

The little bundle's grand arrival is expected this month!
Looking very much forward to returning for a delivery visit (in our favourite Canadian town!) and congratulating the growing family of four!

T is for...

...Tractor!

Little J is getting a big tractor today!

The vintage-style machine billows a puff of smoke out the top and idles as it waits for the driver to return to his work. The canvas measures 3x4 feet with a background shade to match the green wall in baby J's big boy bedroom. Charcoal grays, steel blue, creamy yellows and whites keep the colour-palette neutral. Best of all, it keeps with his Pottery Barn bedding theme of construction vehicles.

Baby J's mom who has a great eye for design has also requested a footstool (to help him onto his big boy bed) and pegboard with images from the Pottery Barn bedding; C is for cement truck & B is for bulldozer. Once everything comes together, this little cutie is going to have one cool construction space for sleep and play!
