Boys' Bedroom Makeover

I transformed my youngest son's "baby room" into a shared "big boy room" for both of my boys. I designed and made headboards, built a toddler bed, painted/glazed furniture, re-covered a thrift store chair, spray painted lamps and added ribbon trim, added stripes to plain white curtain panels, and made art for the walls. Check out the blog post for more info!

    Very nice make over. I especially like the head boards. Did you make them? I tried to find info on your blog to no avail.

    Thanks Becky! Yes, I did make them. I briefly mentioned it in the list of projects I completed for the room, but I'll be posting a more detailed tutorial very soon!
