Kids' Room Re-do

With the boys at my parents for the weekend, it was finally time to give their rooms some serious updates!  Nick is obsessed with Star Wars (as you may have already gathered from reading this blog), so I thought it would be AWESOME to give him a Star Wars room!

Of course I forgot to take the BEFORE pictures of his room!  I thought I had some stored on my computer but they are nowhere to be found.  :(

But... here are the AFTER photos!

Disclaimer:  We moved into our house 3 years ago and still haven't painted the boys' bedrooms.  At this point, I think I am just going to wait for them to be old enough to choose the color they want themselves!





Got these pics on Etsy and framed them



A totally random find at Toys R Us.  Coolest. Chair. Ever.

Reading nook
Lego building table- also a big hit!

Alec inherited several pieces of his brother's old "Transportation" themed room.  Definitely more of a big boy room for my now 2 year old than the Jungle Animals theme that was going on before.  Now we just have to bring the Cars toddler bed up from the basement and he will be all set!







 I am happy to report they both LOVE their newly decorated rooms.  Nick told me his room is AWESOME and he has "always wanted a Star Wars room."  He even thanked me!

I also re-decorated their bathroom from frogs to Ninja Turtles.  That project isn't fully complete though, so no pics!  Plus, do you really want to see pics of my kids' bathroom?  Probably not!

    The rooms look great. I fail at decorating my kids bedrooms. I need to get on it and do better. Thanks for the inspiration.

    I bet they love their new rooms! My son is always asking for room upgrades of some kind. Thank goodness my daughter isn't at that age yet, loL!

    Both rooms look great! I love *PRACTICAL* remodels, that don't include ridiculously priced ideas. I love the reading nook! So glad to see I'm not the only nerdy mom who created something like that in my son's room. :)

      Thank you! I'm not sure how much use that reading nook will get, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!

    They turned out GREAT! We are getting ready to redo our kids rooms too, maybe I should consider posting about them as well. Our sons room is going to be superheroes (comic book style) and the girls room is going to be flowers and butterflies! Cant' wait!

    How fun! I'm sure your boys were thrilled. And to get a thank you from a boy about decorating...that's a home run!! :) Visiting you from the Blogger's Digest.
