KJ's Big Boy Room
I finally finished KJ's big boy room and he could not be more excited. We kept the same wall color, dresser, and rug, but everything else has been reworked and added. The bookshelf was once in our room, the mirror is freshly painted, the shade was once our old Pottery Barn duvet cover. I found the bed at a local antique shop and painted it Benjamin Moore Hale Blue. The frame behind the bed may be my favorite piece. It was made by Kiwi Wood Works and Design and I am smitten. I am now deciding whether to add a photo or design a special print. The last image has the fabric that I am thinking about making the pillow out of. It has a touch of every color and my son loves it.
Bedding: Ikea
Rug: Pottery Barn Kids
Basket under bed: Home Goods
Gallery Wall: more info here.
Chair, bed, dresser, side table: Vintage
white frames: ikea Ribba
Frame behind bed: Kiwi Wood Works and Design
From here on out for the next two weeks everything had been guest blogged or pre-posted. I am hoping to still enjoy all your blogs daily but commenting may just not happen right now. Kellen has been my editor and he can not possibly edit every comment I have till I am fully off the meds. Hope you all understand. I am one loopy lady lately.

There are so many beautiful things to look at in this room! How fun! I love the valance, the pillow fabric, the bed (we just found one like this for Liam's room), the colors....so nice! I'm sure he loves it. Hope you are well.
Looks great. Love the photo frames on the wall, and the colours look great too.
You've done such a wonderful job with this space! I really admire your sense of style.
Take all the time you need for recovery...blogland buddies will wait patiently and send you lots of get-well-soon wishes!

I love KJ's room! I LOVE the frame over his bed and I'm so glad it worked so well for you! That is one of my favorite frames, too. :) So glad it's a part of his big boy room!
It's perfect Paula!
I am currently working on refreshing my 5 year old's bedroom.
I love all the sweet touches, and the colors on KJ's bedroom.

Great job Paula!! It amazes me how you accomplish so much. I hope you're resting comfortably and being pampered like nobody's business :) You deserve it!
Just wanted to let you know I bought a similar spindle bed for my sons's room a few weeks ago and have been trying to find the right dark blue to paint it. I was hesitant to go through with it because I didn't know exactly what it would look like - but after seeing your bed I think I am off to the hardware store today to grab the perfect shade :)
Thanks AGAIN for the inspiration.
Loving the paint color (and everything else) what the name and who's it by?
Get better soon!
It's wonderful... perfect for a boy! I hope you get to feeling better soon!
The bed is divine!!!! Fell better soon. xo
You did a great job - I'm sure he's very proud of his room. I love the green glass lamp in there. Hope you rest up and feel better soon.
Wow... love it.... like enough to copy it to a T.... great job. You are so talented. Hope you are feeling better! Praying for you!

Love it! My son's nursery was pale blue and brown ... as he's getting older and I'm transitioning him into a big boy room, I'm bringing in orange and navy, so I love your color choices!
Very, very cute bedroom. Love that bed.
Paula, the bed turned out great, love the color! And the fabric you chose for the pillow is too Cute!
Hope your feeling better soon. What kind of surgery did you have?

Love love love his room, I'm working on a little boys room right now and this is great inspiration!
LOVE it!!!! So mod and perfectly boy without being too typical. You have serious talent. P.S. I just snipped a sample of that same doggie fabric - it's just too adorable in those colors!
Oh wow, I love this! I just showed my sister (she's having a boy in a few weeks) and she loves it too. You're so creative :)
I hope you're on the mend and feeling better.
