Our two oldest boys share a room and we’ve been wanting to give it a face lift since they moved in together about 2 years ago! The biggest problem was I couldn’t find any bedding that I both liked and could afford at the same time! lol Don’t forget, there are two beds in this room!
It’s hard to find cute bedding for boys that do not have some kind of character on them, I wanted to avoid that at all possible so the room could grow with them for a few years at least. We finally found this bedding on the cheap at Wal-mart! It’s pretty thin so we also got them a polar fleece blanket to go under it and it works really well. They even wash up nicely!
Their beds are bunk beds that we have apart right now. I like it because they match and it gives us the option of putting it together down the road. The upper bunk has rails that work out perfectly for Middle Man.
So now that we finally had the bedding, we could choose the wall colours and we went with the dark, bright blue and green from the pattern. We chose the opposite walls to put the colours on.
The paint was a nightmare to put on and clearly we didn’t splurge and buy the good paint because it took me about 4 coats to get on! (at least it was alone time! lol)
I was lucky enough to win a couple of Peel Monkey giveaways on some awesome blogs and was able to choose this Spaceman theme. As bad luck would have it, the order got messed up on both wins. One of them got corrected and we realized the other way to late to get it fixed so this is what we were left with as far as wall decals go.
