We started this room years ago in this theme — there’s something about the classic red, white and blue that just says little boys to me, I love it! Although it’s a small space, it carries a big punch with a mix of fun patterns to differentiate this room from the rest of our neutral home. Overall, I had really hoped to create a fun and cozy space for my two boys to share.

The lower half of the walls are treated with Allen and Roth beadboard paint-able wallpaper, which was really easy to put up and has held up pretty well over the years.

I’ve had to utilize several bins and baskets for organization as this is such a small space. In fact, Cayden’s bed is on risers to provide extra storage space under his bed.

DIY projects in this space include: the Cricut paper mobile, covered canvas wall art, pillows, monogram wall art, crib skirt, bed skirt, painted dresser, “Let’s hear it for the boys” sign and the art work gallery.
