Little Man’s big boy room

Spent the last week or so working on Little Man’s new room.  He was in a very small room that we are eventually going to turn into a master bathroom so we figured it was time to get him moved into his new room.  This room used to be the kids playroom and it has been fun trying to convince little man that it is his new big boy room.  Hopefully this transition will help a little with potty training (he still has no interest in it at 2 and a half) as we left his changing table in the old room.  Here are a few pics of the work that I did in there.  It started out with dark wood paneling and it turned into a big boy Lightning McQueen room.   I still need to get some picture printed off of Little Man with Daddy and the race cars to put on the shelves but it is coming together.

I am loving how it turned out and what little boys room wouldn’t be made better with Daddy’s racing trophies??  So far I have less than $100 into his room.  I spent less than $60 on paint and supplies, $15 for the Lightning decal on the wall, $3.50 on the new curtain (on clearance last year), and $0 on the dresser.  Love being able to redo his room and not have it break the bank!!

Bedroom Redo for Squeaker

Thought I would share the redo of Squeakers room with you. Here are a few pics to show you what we did to give her a “grown up” Tinkerbell room.

Her room before minus everything. Lol. She had Dora curtains, bedding and headboard.

Her new curtians

Her headboard redone. I took off the Dora fabric and put on new purple fabric that I picked up on clearance for around $2 a yard.

We turned her bed and moved some other things and she says it feels more “grown up”

Found these decals at Family Dollar for $3 apiece and they add such a nice touch to her room. Whimsical without being actual fairies. She loves them and I love the sentiments on both of them.
