Crib Skirt

So I made the crib skirt!  It didn't take very long at all, once I stopped being OCD about measuring and  went ahead and hemmed it.

I used upholstery tacks leftover from redoing this coffee table to pin up the crib skirt pieces into the cardboard that is under the mattress.  When we set up the crib, the instructions said putting the cardboard under the mattress would lengthen the life of the mattress because it was protection from the iron springs. Or whatever is under there.

So it's now serving a double purpose to hold up the crib skirt, which made it nice and easy for me.

With the crib skirt done and the mattress pad and sheet on, I'm declaring the crib done!  Huzzah.

Oh and there are a few little lovey blankets ready and waiting for the little babe. :)
