Boy's Superhero Bedroom

I finally finished the boy's superhero bedroom. They wanted a superhero theme, and I really didn't want to get tacky with spiderman curtains and such. I wanted some kind of classy superhero look. I found the perfect model on the pottery barn website and we copied their idea to create the most awesome superhero room!

We got brick wallpaper from an online store and I wallpapered just the far wall and around the closet door. So it looks kinda like a city wall. Then all around the other walls we painted 3 feet of navy with a cartoon like city scape on top. I found whole body pictures of different superheros in all different places. The wall decals are so very expensive, so instead, some of these superheros came off of gift bags, party centerpieces from the party store, and even from a couple superhero books. We have ironman, superman, spiderman, batman, and Buzz Lightyear. You'd never know the difference!! The rug we ordered from Sansung Rugs where we got a great deal on a shaggy 3 inch navy rug. And the futon we got so we could have extra sleeping space for visitors and a cozy place to read books and scriptures together before bed.

Nate's sister, Melissa, has her own Cricut machine that cuts vinyl lettering. She let me borrow it and I put this phrase on the wall. If you couldn't tell, its a spin off of Buzz Lightyear's most famous line in Toy Story. Thanks Melissa!

The builder's built these bunkbeds into the wall. It was part of our overall plan and they did a wonderful job! The boys enjoy pretending to be on a pirate ship looking out through their telescopes up on the top. We already had navy blue painted letters for their names from our previous house. I let the boys paint red over top of the navy and then we hot glued them to the wall!!

Jaxton is beginning to learn how to tell time, so we had to add a clock in the room too...

This dresser we also found on Craigslist. It was very old and light oak in color. We painted it with the same paint we used for Kaylee's furniture and the solid piece turned out great! I completed the room with photos of the boys, baby pictures, and brothers pictures, even a superhero shot to go with our theme! I followed the advice I heard at the last general conference to have a picture of a temple in every bedroom. That is the center focus when you first walk into the room. Its often the very first thing you see. The boys love their room, and I had a whole lot of fun putting it together. Its fun to finally know we are not moving again for a while and we can make our house a home!!
