C's new room

C's room is finally done! I painted it an amazing color--white! He wanted so much on his walls that it had to be a neutral color. It was fairly easy to paint because everything got painted the same--doors, trim, baseboards, walls. There are just a few little details that need to be taken care of (we want to put the Derek Jeter trading card in a frame; he needs an updated pix of K beside his bed) and Daddy is going to build him a shelf for his baseball collection--once it's warmer in the garage.

So here are the pictures to prove it is done.
Here his is new dresser and the TV that we hung for him to do school. Behind the TV on the wall are 4 pennants: Colts, Pittsburgh Penguins hockey, Yankees, and Florida State.

Here is the wall of pennants and his school desk is right to the left of the lamp.

Behind his door we hung a bulletin board. I'll use it if I need to hang things for him for school. On the bulletin board, I stuck 5 of the trading pins that we brought back from Disney world. I'm also going to hang some of the AWANA ribbons that he has too.


This is the wall above his bed. Most of the pictures are signed by at least one Colts player. There are 2 signatures on the poster.

Here is my favorite wall. We bought a Fathead--so worth the money! There's no way I could've painted all that and made it look that good. LOVE IT!

All together, I think we only spent $200. That was for the Fathead ($100), paint, supplies, frames, and pennants. The TV and dresser don't count. He needed both and we had planned to buy both with this year's tax return anyway. Not bad.

My SIL is coming to visit in April. She commented that our house is going to look like a different house by the time she gets here. That would be the point. I'm not enjoying the painting, but I am enjoying the results. Check back soon for the living room reveal.
