Anden's Bedroom Reveal

As I mentioned a couple weeks ago,

I undertook remaking Anden's bedroom.

And it all started with this.

I found some adorable baskets and storage totes at Home Goods

 in lime green/navy color scheme that I'm loving on right now.

I bought them all.

And then debated for two weeks if I should really redo his room because

of a lousy basket.

Then I decided yes indeed I should!!

We've lived in Anthem almost 5 yrs now.

It's time for him to have a change

and a bigger bed!

So as I mentioned I found a steal of a deal on Craigslist for a bunk bed

then refinished it from pine to espresso.

Then the room painting and decorating began.

I was on a slim budget so

I reused a lot of his decor and just repainted it.

Luckily I had family come into town for Easter.

Because that pushed me to wrap up this makeover quickly!

I'm still undecided on how I'm going to refinish his dresser/nightstands.

(espresso, distressed white, or distressed lime green)

But other than that, I'm done!

So here's the big reveal....!

Before:

After:

I'm now in love with this room

and it makes me smile each time I walk in.

My favorite part of the entire space are the custom designs I made

for the huge white bead board frames.

I scoured the internet and stores looking for the perfect artwork.

But alas I couldn't find anything I loved.

So I decided to make my own in Photoshop.

And yes those silhouettes

are actually my super stud son Anden.

Needless to say his entire body grinned when I showed it to him!

What kid wouldn't want super cool pics of themselves?

Here's the action shots before I edited them.

So now Anden has a big boy room that he can grow with.

Then with each sport/hobby phase, 

I'll just design and swap out new pictures.

I can't believe how fast he's grown up!

I did sniffle when I took down his "anden" sign I made for him when he turned 2 yrs old.

But it's time for a new chapter

and now we're ready for the next exciting phase in his life!

And later I added this little treasure of a nightstand...
