James' Room - Makeover

A long time ago in a ranch house far, far away a little boy dreamed of a Star Wars room.  Enter a Grammy (pre-baby trip) and a gander through Home Depot and an idea was born!

Too bad it took the pregnant lady a few months post delivery to make things happen.  But it has all been well worth the wait!  The room turned out better than either I or James imagined.  It is super cool!  

Furniture, but no fun.

The beginnings of something cool!  (The Light Saber Wall!)

He helped me choose what light saber should be which color.

Tape off - now time to edger and finish her off.

This baby looks so much cooler in real life!

After the painting was done - it was time to get decorating!  We had got some Star Wars wall decals FOREVER ago.  Finally James was able to get them out and put them up!  Wyatt and Isabel helped too! 





I painted some ordinary white frames with the red I used for the light sabers.  Then I framed some of James' latest art work.  I am a huge fan of his "Angry Birds Star Wars" drawing!

No wonder James loves his Star Wars bedroom -- those saber lights are AMAZING. What a great Mom you are to do all that work painting and decorating his room so it looks just like something right out of a Star Wars Movie. The Force must have definitely been with you (to fit this in with everything else you do).
