The Big Bedroom Reveal

I've been talking about this for months and I am finally ready to let you all see what we have done. . . yes, it's the big reveal on Aidan's bedroom!!  But, first, let me remind you of where we started. . .



Okay, so there isn't any furniture to speak of in these pictures, but remember we were all Noah's Ark before?  There was a small twin bed with no frame, a bookcase, dresser and a couple of nightstands. 

All of the Noah's Ark stuff was taken down (what a pain that was!!!  No pasted borders for me again!!!)  The paint had to be sanded in a couple of places and then touched up.  Then I put up the new wall paper border (peel and stick this time!) and voila!  The room began to take shape. . .then, new curtains (much more boyish blue panels), new quilts of navy blue and white stars and, of course, the new furniture!!

And here we are:



It's all so much more boyish, isn't it??
And then there is the really cute space motif wallpaper border. . .

And, of course, the planets. . .  We know the planets.  In their order.  From the Sun (which isn't hung yet, but will be) Oh what fun!  You may think it's cheesy.  But, it's really easy.  Let's begin!  First there's Mercurey, then there's Venus. . .

Earth. . .

And Mars. . .


Jupiter. . .

Saturn. . .

And Uranus. . .


Neptune. . .


And Pluto. . .

That's the end. . .Let's do it again!!  : )

Aidan loves his new room.  He is really getting an education by it.  I think we'll venture into the land of telescopes for Christmas. . .
