Will's Big Boy Room

This post is waaaay overdue, seeing as how Will started sleeping in his big boy bed about 5 months before Meredith was even born.  But there were some odds and ends I've been working on forever that I finally completed, so here it is with all of the finishing touches.  Come on in...

I was excited to reuse a lot of old furniture pieces.  This bed (new mattress of course) came from my great-grandmother.  Mimi recovered the headboard and made the curtains and bed skirt to coordinate with this adorable airplane bedding I found at K-mart of all places.  

This shelf came from Michael's and I just sanded and stained it.  I love his little dress-up hats and wooden cars that were in his nursery.  Will painted the "camo" W in the background at a pottery painting studio.  He was so proud of himself.

This bookshelf started off as a gun cabinet built by Great-Grandpa Kiser.  We removed the doors, added shelves, and painted it red.  The large AF picture to the right is actually a puzzle that Pappy helped us put together.  

The dresser came from Nana's house.  I painted the knobs red for a touch of whimsy.  I also did the airplane paintings on the wall to match his bedding.  I think they turned out pretty cute.

 One of my favorite things is his rocking airplane.  My mom found it at a consignment shop.  So fun!  Will and Meredith both love to play on it.

 And that's the grand tour.

 Thanks for stopping by!
