Little Sleep Style


I have been so slack about pulling together a "big boy" room for my littlest.  He is 3.25 years old now and it's time I get rid of the sweet stripes on his walls and the baby framed prints.  He is such a rough and tumble boy and his room right now looks like a nursery still.  Poor baby.  I'm hanging onto to the baby years since he is my last.  
  
I thought I would pull together a little board of what I'm imagining for it.  He loves the beach and has absolutely no fear around water-slightly terrifying but I also want to embrace that for him.  I'm always a fan of blue, white and grey so those are basically the colors I am starting with but will of course throw in some orange and green.  

1-loving these beach/surfer photographs blown up and framed in the big white square frame(unknown source-found on Pinterest)

2-How freaking amazing is this chest from IKEA? Don't need, but l.o.v.e!!!!


4-another amazing IKEA find

5-abstract piece by his momma-Way Way Allen

6-curtain panels turned bedskirt from......wait for it...IKEA

7-All time favorite sheets from Serena and Lily

8-CB2 standing light-perfecto

9-bedskirt from Anthropologie similar to the look we're going for with the curtain panels above.

His room is so tiny I only have room for a single.  I have a really cool headboard for it that I'm thinking of painting but want to wait until the room is painted to see what I think.  It has an asian flare to it with a washy green glaze over it.  I promise to post about it once we get a little further in the process!  So, what do you think?  Do you like the direction his room is headed?

Wrap It or Throw It

What would you do?  I'm torn as to what to do with this awesome piece of fabric I snagged from my mom.  I am absolutely smitten with it and want to make the right decision as to how to "use it best." 



ignore pillows in background...new ones to come

Mom always used it as our dining room table table cloth-redundant much???.   I'm trying to decide if I should a) continue to use it as a tablecloth (although our dining room table is long and rectangular-still could work I suppose), b) upholster my headboard (that I don't have yet) or c) use it as a throw at the end of our bed????  Let me show you a few examples...

Upholstered Headboards


All time favorite above!!!!


You know I love a blue and white print!


Throws


Loving all components of this room above!!!


Blue and White again!


So what's a girl to do???

Now I lay me down to sleep....

Seriously, if I had to do it all over again, this is what I would do.  
Pick one. 
 Any one.

Love the look of the barn door behind the crib.  What a statement piece.

Never thought I would use the word elegant for a baby girl's nursery, but don't you think that's a good word for this one above?

This one reminds me of baby G's nursery, that's why I think I like it.  Lots of ooh's and ahh's over the chevron bumper with the orange ties.


This is baby G's nursery above.


This is sweet and simple. 
 I like.


And for the big boys and girls...

I'm sorry, but how precious is this idea with the twin beds above?  I love the little step leading up to the beds.



Another awesome idea, but how tall would your ceilings have to be?

Love.
Great idea for a beach house bunk room....

Which one is your favorite?
