My Son's Room

I posted here that I have always been creative and that I have done two great children's rooms...in my opinion, of course. A few of you have asked for pictures...

We moved Evan into a toddler bed yesterday, so I made a point of getting some good pictures of his room.

His room used to be our office...and it was decorated with all of my husband's Earnhardt memorabilia. Donald really wanted a boy so he wouldn't have to totally redo the room...his prayer was answered, hee!

Oh and WARNING: if you're not a Nascar fan, you may see this room as 'redneck'...this is as redneck as we get around here...I think...

These two pics are from the not-quite-finished project before Evan was born.



The border was already in place. My friend Marissa and I painted the walls white and created the checkered wall. I painted red letters for Evan's name and rearranged the rest of the collection around the room, including pennants, models and a Monopoly board. My friend Debbie and I painted a crib black...and it looked sharp. I also had a white glider rocker in one corner...I covered the cushions with black fleece.


Here is what we have today:

I have always loved Evan's room. It's bold. It's 'boy'. And it doesn't have to be changed as he ages, yippie!!


I'll try to get to Ella's room soon. :)
