The bed is the Kura Bed from Ikea, we painted it blue and I painted the side panels with chalkboard paint. I also "mod-podged" the bedding fabric onto the front panel! Because it was a loft bed, I had decided to turn the bottom into every little boy's dream...a fort! I used felt and clear vinyl and hung it with a tension rod! When it was finished I was In Love! I could see the start of my vision coming to life!!
The reading corner was a Pinterest discovery! I took rain gutters and cut them into 24" measurements, painted them and hung them on the wall! They are sturdy and can hold a TON of books! Definitely my most creative aspect of the room =)
The Robot vinyl on the wall is from This Store on Etsy! The dresser was a $5 garage sale find that we painted using Annie Sloan paints and bought These knobs from Olive Kids! Loved how it came to life when it was removed from its old wood + brass handles suffering! ;-))
Finally, the accents were all fun to do...the rug, the buckets of art supplies in the "art corner", the bunting on the wall!
I am so happy with it and can't wait to bring my sweet boy home and show him his amazing room!
And the husband got his one wish.
I didn't paint the walls turquoise. ;-)
