M's New Room

With the latest move M got to have his own room. Which has been working out great! J is an early bird and so is N, so having them share a room has been working out as well. I think J likes being the big brother in the room and N likes to share his room with J. N has also been transitioned to the daybed version of his crib and has been sleeping great at night, naps are a different story ;)

But back to M. We went with a more mature airplane theme, most of the stuff I used was stuff I already had, or stuff I have picked up cheap on clearance. We did get him a new bookcase and console from Ikea so that he can have his books in his room. At some point, probably the next move, we will need to get him a new bed frame, but the loft bed is allowing him to have some more play space in this tiny little room.

New Ikea bookcase with his lofted Ikea bed. I picked up the plane wall decals on super clearance at Target for under $4 and it just filled in all the white space on the wall where we didn't want pictures on the wall.
Curtains were actually hung, he complained that on the weekends he would like to sleep in and that the sun kept waking him up...or it could be the other two boys in the house ;)

More decals mixed with metal planes I have picked up over the years. The propeller I have had since 2003 bought in Grapevine Texas at a Target...yes I remember weird things like this ;)
The three prints I thought were pretty cool. They say, "Dare to be Unique", "Stand a Little Taller", "Set Your Course and Soar"...little motivational prints that just look cool IMO.

Looking in from the doorway. The media console doubles as desk, storage in the drawers for his tractor collection, and place for the keyboard to go. The 2 little chairs were a find on clearance and complete the space nicely and gives him a spot to read as well.
I have been thinking about getting him a beanbag chair of some sort to go under the loft bed as another place to chill and read...since it seems like he is reading all the time...including at night when he suppose to be sleeping.

So most of the furnishing came from Ikea, HomeGoods, Ross, Target, and the Bx...it is always fun to shop ;)

J and N will be having a space room, still pulling things together... trying not to spend too much on items takes time and a lot of trips to stores...but that is half the fun ;) So far I have the bedding and a couple of little prints, still trying to find something that makes you go "Wow!" Let me know if you spot anything out there ;)
