Recently
we purchased a bunk bed set for my younger son so that he would have a big boy
bed to move on to when it came time to transition out of his crib. Problems
arose and the bed took A LOT longer to arrive than we originally anticipated…
yada yada yada {I could write a whole post about my bed purchasing experience},
and then when the bed finally came we set it up and decided that we did not
like it in my son’s room. They boys needed to switch rooms.
So
after some serious furniture moving help from my in-laws {Thanks Wendy &
Shawn} the boy’s rooms were switched. Now the old nursery is my oldest son’s
room and he has decided that he is too big for Dr. Seuss. He wants his room to
be pirate themed. So we picked out some pretty cool sea life pictures and
framed them and we ordered a huge map to go on his wall {hello future corkboard
project}. I am on the lookout for some fun pirate paraphernalia as well as used
sails to turn into curtains, but I have not had much luck.
I don’t
want his room to be too childish that he outgrows it in another year or two, so
I am trying to go more nautical and less swords and eye patches. I am kind of
stuck as to what I should display above his bed. I am thinking a globe and
chest and maybe framed photos and books. I would love to hear your thoughts…
What I should do for a vignette above the bed?
