Room Changes

PROJECTS...

We have started the process of moving all of the boys to different rooms to prepare for baby girl's arrival.
First, we moved Miles downstairs. The room was already painted green, his favorite color. Allen found a desk and dresser on KSL and painted them black. We just have to find a bed frame at some point and put curtains up.

As I look at this photo, it kind of looks like a shrine...LOL but it's his dresser with his 3 foul balls he got at last years Rockies game.
Didn't get a picture of it, but blew up a picture Allen took of the 3 boys looking up at the Provo Temple. Gotta get the Temple/Jesus pictures up too!!

Then, we started working on Miles' empty room....paint the ceiling, paint the walls grey (our compromise...boys wanted black for the Batcave) and made Porter and Quincy's room a Batman and Robin room!
Was thrilled to find this light cover!
Found a really cool old school comic cover turned poster of Batman and Robin swinging!
(it's rather hard to find Robin stuff) Plus put a few pics of them dressed up in their costumes.
Got navy Thermo curtains and had to make felt ties with the Bat signal and Robin logo on them. I finally got to put up a really cute saying that Aunt Tiffany made us for Christmas...
"Sometimes being a Brother is even better than being a Super Hero!"
The boys love to color and their old room had TONS of pictures covering their walls. Well, with the new paint job we told them NO tape on the walls...
should've known both sides of the door and closet doors would be covered within the hour!
But they did obey...the tape is not on the walls! Might have to buy a cork board for over their cool new desk! (Miles' old one...they are so excited)

2 rooms down....now we move onto the nursery! Phew! Allen has been a champ. I help prep the room, but he has been doing ALL the painting! I think after the nursery is done, Allen will be done with "PROJECTS" for awhile...

The rooms turned out GREAT!!! It's so hard to keep all their pictures and nick nack stuff off the walls, dressers and floor.
I love how you did the curtian tie backs. You are CRAFTY!
