It has taken me far too long to finish Sterling Henry's room. And now that it is done I am not sure how I feel about it. I LOVE the theme but there is one wall that is driving me crazy.
Since we named Sterling Henry after his dad and my grandpa David Henry, we decided to hang some old photos of my grandpa in the room. My grandpa is the coolest guy around. He has lived such an amazing life. He is one of the most humble people that I know, considering all he has done is his life! He is a real cowboy and I have always loved that about him. I got this pictures from my aunt Suzanne(thank you!!). I LOVE how they turned out!
This leather thing was my grandpa's brand from his ranch. My grandparents gave us all one of these when I was super young. All the Hawkins cousins will recognize this. While I was home for Christmas I found mine and had to bring it back to hang in Sterling's room!
Then of course there is this beautiful quilt that my mom made! And another picture of my grandpa.
What do you think? The spacing on one of the walls is what is bugging me, I am sure I will figure it out!

I'm loving every minute of this baby room. I'm a sucker for family names/heirlooms and those pictures are SO FUN! Also, your mom is an AMAZING quilt maker -- so beautiful!
Cute room for a darling little boy! :) Way to go!
I LOVE it!! All the cowboy photos of your grandpa are amazing. I would kill for decorations like that!
So sweet. I absolutely love the theme and what a nice way to honor your grandpa. I've already forgotten what the rest of it looks like though so I would love to see pics of the whole room!
Or--I just had an idea! I'll come over. ;)
awesome. our gramps is the best!
I love the room and I agree with Marcus that our grandpa is the best.
way to go. that looks awesome. how fun for Sterling to be able to look up to so many of his ancestors - literally! Love the brand. We have my grandpa's brand in our house practically everywhere - hats, clothes, bags, bandanas. But the frame one is a nice touch! You have inspired me.
oh i LOVE the room!! can you come do my kids room???? that is too perfect- grandpa is seriously the best.
I love it, little boys and Cowboys goes just perfectly.
It's very cute! I have my leather brand in my hope chest. I want to see pictures of the crib and the rest of the room.
I have always wanted to do a room like this with the quilts from family, Grandpa Hawkins' stuff and pics and everything... but apparently "wanting" doesn't get the job done.
