Just to give you an idea of the size of our rooms, Collin has a bunk bed, a playhouse, a big couch-like chair, an end table, a big dresser and TONS of big toys in his room with more area still to play! Our room is even bigger than his. Wow!
Anyway... I had the idea when I was first preggers that I wanted to do a Peacock theme for her (even though I we didn't know yet that she was a she), so I started keeping my eye open for peacock stuff. I had the hardest time finding any crib sets that were peacock feather pattern. I was frustrated, but I didn't let it get me down! I decided to piece stuff together instead.
What actually ended up happening was that I integrated butterflies and bird-type stuff into the room decor as well. It is even better than expected and I am in love with it. I can't wait until we do move and Evy has her own room because it will be spectacular.
The color scheme is the same: Peacock themed colors (blues, greens, purples, blacks). It has a Victorian feel to it without it being too formal.
| Shelf above crib. Shelf was .50 at a garage sale. It was blue and broken. I fixed it up and painted it black. |
| This was a splurge..sorta. Target for $10. I had to have it! |
| The big picture! Evyn's sticker was also a splurge. Vinyl sticker store in St. George mall ($30 OUCH!) |
| Cutest pillows. Buy one, get one free at World Market. Had coupon, so paid $10 for both! Regularly $20 EACH! |
| Crib flat sheet. All the colors I have used. Funny thing is that I just got this! It came way after the decor. |
| Ikea dresser $99. We got one for Evy and Collin. Collin's old dresser was picked up on side of road and I had planned on refinishing it, but it was a piece of crap. No salvaging it. |
| Another great piece I already had. It was packed away. Why? I don't know because it's a great piece of decor. I LOVE hanging lamps. It's just so pretty. |
| Got these (two) hanging wall decorations from a yard sale for .50 for both! They were gold (ew!), so I spray painted them black. |

| First item I bought once I decided to bring butterflies into the scheme. It's a Peacock Butterfly, too. :) Ebay for $9. Ebay is the best for finding pinned and framed butterflies and bugs. |
| Another closer pic of the whole shelf. |
Hope you enjoyed Evyn's room! I am always adding things I find. Once we move and we can paint, I am going to go crazy. So many ideas!
