Connor's Room

Connor's room has transformed very slowly over the past month or so. Once Mylie moved out last fall, he decided that he just wasn't into the little cowboy/cowgirl theme and wanted a sports bedroom. It is finally finished! I was able to do it with very little expense, since we kept the wall color and color scheme the same. Just a few new decor items, and viola--my sporty little guy has his dream bedroom.


This fun gallery was created with a clearance clock ($5), some $2 frames, and Connor's favorite pictures cut from Sports Illustrated.

Connor wanted a trophy shelf, so we just did a simple one and kept his name letters from the room already.
I took his toy box that I had painted red and stenciled cute little cowboy boots and hats onto when he was a baby--stripped it, repainted and used some wallies to turn it into a sports box where he keeps all his sports equipment.

For a final touch, I used my limited sewing skills to sew this fun little window valance.
