We finally wrapped up Eleanor's room. Since starting her room our living room got a bit of a makeover, we renovated our bathroom, worked on an nursery and welcomed a brand new baby boy. Needless to say, I have left you all hanging.

Pottery Barn Inspired Baskets
I have a thing for numbers in home decor. I am instantly drawn to them. Dressers with numbers on drawers, stools with painted numbers or baskets with numbers.

This included a spur of the moment mini road trip to IKEA. Which, by the way, is now the land mark in which Quinn judges all things. Quinn, "Is that bigger than ...
