One more thought on using ideas for decorating your baby's nursery in lavender.
Do you like the look but don't feel like the creative type? That's
okay! Find a friend that relishes this type of decorating and exchange
jobs to help each other out. For example, if you cook, cook her
several freezer meals. If you're an organizing whiz,
organize her closets. Provide child care for her for a weekend or plant
flowers in her garden, all the while she decorates your baby nursery in
lavender and both of you are happy mothers!
