Five Comforters Later . . .

Yes, you read that correctly. I bought and brought home five different comforters for Z's room before I found one I liked. I was trying to spend the least amount of money as possible, but at the same time, find something that would match his walls and baby quilt. I did not want to repaint. The other four comforters are now returned to their stores. We already had his dresser, bookcase, and a bench in his room that matched and wanted a bed that matched, too. We had to some serious bed shopping. So here's Z's big boy bed.

Proud boy

The pillow mom and I made. I used the fabric from his quilt for the sails. I did the sailboat, mom sewed it together.

I can't click on the picture to make it bigger. Wow. Five. I don't take stuff home unless I'm sure. Never know if I'll make it back to the store.

That looks great!
I am really impressed.
Ever thought about auditioning to host one of those design shows?
(Now that I have flattered you, do you wanna help me paint my bedroom?*WINK*)
I really DO love his big boy bed and room!

I painted the Scripture on the wall. I drew straight lines and had a printout to look at, but it was freehand. It was more centered when the crib was in there. I wish I could move it over a few inches without having to repaint.
