My gosh, it seems to have been ages since I've posted anything! So much happening this time of year. I always think I have so much more time that I actually do. Well, first things first. Remember that room I was redecorating for my boys? It's finished!!
Here is the before picture. I had actually started clearing things out and taking bedding off of the beds and just making a huge mess when I suddenly realized - uh-oh...I didn't take any before pictures. So, the room is a huge mess in this picture! Oh well, such is life. You can get a basic idea of what it looked like.
And here is the after picture! We went with a travel/safari theme. The boys have a large giraffe that was our inspiration piece and they already had airplanes hanging from the ceiling so we went with that.
I have a cute old luggage rack that I had painted white as well as an old metal suitcase on hand so I placed the suitcase on top of the luggage rack and voila - an instant side table with a travel theme twist. I also painted a vintage dresser black and decoupaged some girrafe print tissue paper onto the drawer pull plates. The drawer pulls themselves were painted red.

then, I found an adorable picture of two giraffes

here are the kids existing airplanes
