My son's room
Storage, yes! Cozy, yes! Toys, yes! Books, yes! Space to play, yes!
Is it done? No!
We will add more photos to the wall to make wallpaper (48 truck photos so far)...the toys change, the books change, the felt board changes...always more art for display. This room is constantly in motion!
Colour!! KA-POW!

ReplyDeleteits the opposite of calm....that's for sure...there is sooo much stuff! Little boy stuff!
ReplyDeleteLove it all! It's such a happy room.
ReplyDeleteI. LOVE. IT. Just saying.
ReplyDeleteLooking good! Love the truck photos on the wall :) (PS - also lovethat you have a blanket circa '90's from an airline! haha)
ReplyDeleteLove how colourful it is. Also love that it is 100% a kid's room, without being cliche. Amazing job :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks great and I'm sure he loves it! We did the same thing with the Ikea bookcase on its side - isn't it perfect for toy storage and all sorts of displays (it's all about lego here)!
ReplyDeleteLove it. The garlands over the neutral curtains look so festive!
ReplyDeleteIt is very cosy and functional,nice pictures
