Sean's new room

Indiana Jones room - still border to be added and a few things to be finished -

deciding where his next adventure will be......

We still have some ideas for this room. Maybe painting a bottom wall border of grass and creating two bolder type rocks or beanbags chairs maybe covered in gray fabric made to look like boulders to sit on either side of the dormer window that he has up there. Also maybe a fake tree plant and a large type elephant or zebra or some type animal hiding in the corner to make it look African/safari. At the dormer I am also thinking of putting some netting coming halfway across as a sort of hideaway for him. We put the pictures up today and they really made the room some alive some more. We have a "movie set" looking chair that has been in our family for a few years and it matches so it sits in the corner with the hat and a satchel I made for him.
Thanks for letting me bore you with the details of my boys room. He loves it.........:)

You sure do get lots of comments. I used to get lots of them on my old blog when I did lots of poems, and scenic photo's

Has Sean seen the movies? Ricky wouldn't watch them-too scary for him.

What a great project to have behind you as you begin the new year! We sorely need to repaint and rework our boys bedroom, as well as several other rooms. My hubby absolutely hates to paint now, so I'm trying to find the right time to approach the subject. But I am ready to get going! I hope the rest of your efforts turn out as well as this one!

Really great idea and you pulled it off. I wish I was good at decorating.
