Unlike Sophie who was thrilled with her new room immediately, Michael took a little more time warming up to his. Thankfully, he has also been sleeping pretty well, but it has taken a little more snuggling and storytelling to settle him in.
The beds were Mike's when he was growing up, and his parents were gracious enough to let us paint them navy blue (Royal Navy by Valspar).
Speaking of paint, Michael's room looked pretty feminine when we moved in. I'm glad I didn't give in to the pretty purple walls and delicate windows that suggested it could be a better choice for Sophie. I knew their furniture would fit better the way we have them.
His dresser was part of a set we picked up at a garage sale years ago for $60 (the longer dresser is now our family room TV stand). The lamp is from Ikea and lived in our old basement family room for years.
The airplane and double-decker bus pillows came from Etsy. The quilt sets are from Target. I have a number of ideas for wall art for both kids' rooms including a box of industrial gears from eBay for Michael's. I hope you'll check back in to see those details down the road.
Love everything about this room!
