I had some cube storage made by a local woodworker who had great prices. I was going to have him make the toy storage too, but he's apparently on Alaska time (a common issue around here). Instead of the 2-3 weeks he promised to have my clothes storage made, it actually took him 7 weeks. I didn't want to wait 2 more months (or longer) for the toy storage. I found a great deal on bookcases at the local store for 50% off. The quality isn't awesome (a little better than Wal Mart), but the price was great.
Without further ado, here is the room for my 3 boys (ages 9, 5 and 2), and the playroom for all 4 (soon to be 5) kids
The quilts and sham are from Pottery Barn Kids. I'm still planning to get wall decals with their monogram and full names to use as headboards above their beds (when my budget allows)
Little man got a special Thomas the Tank Engine pillowcases and duvet cover to encourage him to sleep in his own bed (he still sleeps with me half the time)
The train table is a hit with all the kids
The constellation chart is huge. I got it on clearance from PBK
This world map is extra cool because it's also a dry erase, so the kids can mark where Daddy is at when he's deployed or TDY
There's no door to the room. The half wall hides the staircase that leads to the main part of the house. The plane on the wall is the one my husband flies here in AK
I'm loving the cube storage. It easily fits the clothing of all 3 boys
The boys had wanted a bright green room, but I just couldn't do it. I did a green "landing strip" on the half wall instead
Thanks for checking it out! The kids love their new space (and so do I)
P.S. - I just couldn't end this post without a pic of the kids that get to enjoy this room
