My J is growing up. As part of his birthday he wanted us to "redo" his little kid room (of transportation) into something cooler...Like sports. After being sad for a bit, I pulled out my primer and sadly primed over the hand painted race cars I had painted in that room 4 years ago.....I was letting it go. He was growing up.
J and I went out and found "posters" (not my choice!) of teams he wanted in his room. I would have picked all vintage sports stuff, but this was his room, his choice, my money! LOL
He stuck with Chicago teams but wants to add more pendants from places our friends and family live. No sport was left out. Baseball, Football, Basketball and Hockey were the picks. We even tossed in soccer too.
On his birthday, while he was at school I loaded up the room for him. He wanted the load in to be a surprise and I added a few more things too.
Was able to flip his "car" quilt over for a plain blue! Cheap! Love it!
Found that great subway art online and spray painted a frame from his room red to match!
I found the desk chair on the curb..I actually found 4 so I spray painted it red too!
He loves his new room! It is so "him". I spent less than 75.00 on the entire thing, including posters. We are not working on C's room, who WANTS transportation! Stay tuned!
