Nursery Cornice Boards

The past couple days I have been in sunny Tampa, FL visiting some of my husband's family.  One of his sister's is pregnant and due in May!!! We decided to do some adorable cornice boards in her nursery and they turned out absolutely gorgeous!

We found really cute fabric at our local fabric store Making Ends Meet. The polka dots were perfect for the color of the bedroom and the bedding that she purchased from Pottery Barn Kids

Isn't is cute!!!!!  She had the great idea of buying two extra pillow shams that had the same two birds on them as above. She thought it would be cute to cut them out and put them on the cornice boards!  I thought this was a great idea and a great way to make the boards look very custom!  

She also wanted baby Ella's initial on the cornice boards, so she was able to do an "E" in chocolate brown on the fabric and then have the birds cut out and sewn on either side of the "E"

The fabric came out looking like this

How stinking cute is that!!!!!!  I was blown away how great the fabric turned out!

After doing some work....

and some pinning....

and some more hard work, we got a finished product!

and here is one board hung!

Can't get much cuter than that folks :)  She has ordered two white dupioni silk curtains that have a ruffle down each side of them and we are going to stick them under the cornice board on either side of the window.  Check back to see the final product!
