This is the kiddo's room.
And I bet you can't guess what he likes.... hummmmm....
Legos.
Legos.
Legos... and STAR WARS!
This is kiddo {the short one} with one of his good friends.
We have interesting guests in the Double-Wide in the Sky.
I don't know what it is about us.
Kiddo's room serves as the Guest Bedroom. This is one of the many things that changed when we moved to the Double-Wide. We went from a 4 bedroom to a 2 bedroom. But, it still works out quite nicely. The guests have their own bathroom {which is connected to the room}. For now, kiddo is small enough that he sleeps on the couch.
We actually can make other arrangements for guests {or kiddo - when he is older}... we are connected to a hotel.... so we get a great rate on hotel rooms :0)
Bedding - PB Teen
Lamps - Pottery Barn Kid and HomeGoods
Throw Pillows - West Elm, Etsy and HomeGoods
Couch - Online
This is Mr. Ott {The Stars Otter} and Too Big. Too Big has been in our family now for over 5 years. I picked him up at Walgreens after Valentine's Day at 90% off. He was only $2!!!! Little did I know that this "stuffed animal" would become kiddo's FAVORITE and one of those that you keep forever and E-V-E-R! Kiddo came up with the name... because the stuffed animal was TOO BIG for his crib!
That just makes my heart smile.
Ottomans - The Dump
Rug - CB2
Corner Desk - Pottery Barn
Chair - online
Black Dresser - revamped {was hubby's dresser when he was a kiddo}.
Kiddo wants to be a Movie Director when he grows up. Steven Spielberg is his favorite director.... hence the Indiana Jones... Star Wars... E.T., etc!
I have a source {in all my years connected to Antique Markets} for authentic --- original --- movie posters. You have to view these as ART! Because you PAY for originals... as ART!
The Indiana Jones poster..... a copy purchase on eBay.... for like $4.
The Star Wars Episode 1 Poster... an original.... NOT $4.
The Empire Strikes Back New York Subway Poster... an AWESOME original.
Kiddo LOVES his desk. He does everything on it. From school, to games, to writing film story boards... etc.... etc.
That painting was lovingly given to kiddo by our contractor.... who is also an AMAZING artist!
Kiddo loves his room.
Guests love his room.
I love his room.
It's cozy... but VERY B-O-Y!
I have not yet included this post as "A Double-Wide in the Sky" House Tour.
The tabs are located on the right side bar of the page.... but, if you're interested in browsing further I have included the links below.
And since I had a special project going on.... I have new shots of all the rooms. So, if you have even visited the tour before, there are all new photos to see. So, enjoy!

Oh my gosh! That room is decorating so cute (in a boy way ;)! And I love the color on the wall :)
ReplyDeleteHow cool that you guys are connected to the hotel so you get good rates! I'm sure downgrading from a 4 bedroom to a 2 bedroom was difficult at first, but it's also nice to simplify. My husband and I downgraded from a 3 bedroom house with a little basement to a 1 bedroom apt. Talk about lack of storage space, lol!
Great job on Kiddo's room!

Thanks, Lisha!
DeleteAnd yes.... talk about a lack of storage space... I can only imagine ;)

Ok, my TEEN would love that room! That's pretty awesome! We are so not in the downgrading stage LOL When hubby was in grad school, we were in a SINGLE WIDE. Honest to goodness. It sucked rocks. Then, we moved up to an awful midcentury ranch house. I detest midcentury ranch houses. Now, we're in a turn of the century craftsman. I can't imagine leaving this house! Of course, I still don't have storage space LOL Or a guest room :P
ReplyDeleteCraftsmans are SERIOUSLY my favorite styled home -- architectually --. I would LOVE that!

Love the bright colors in this room! You have such an eye for design! Okay....and those little ottomans.....ADORABLE!
ReplyDeleteblessings,
karianne
THanks SO much, Karianne!
DeleteAnd those ottomans: I seriously *ran* across the warehouse when I spotted them. I didn't want anyone else to pick them up. Especially, when I saw there were only 2. I got there and another brilliant lady asked... are you getting those? I said YES before I even looked at the price. Thankfully... I scored BIG time. Real leather, well made, and a STEAL ;)

Found you from the Rooster and the Hen. We have a Star Wars Room too!! Love what you did! Awesome job.
ReplyDeleteJen @ Noting Grace
Well, WELCOME.... Jen!
DeleteStar Wars.... gotta LOVE it ;)
Thanks for stopping in and hope you come back some more!

I found your blog through your feature on the 36th Avenue's blog and I am in LOVE! If we have a boy, this room is the perfect mix of everything I want - posters, sports, kid items, and cool accessories. Love the vintage posters, they are definitely art. We used to live where the kids' rooms became guest rooms when necessary but luckily all of our family lived pretty close! :) But wow, I'm just loving this room!! And now I'm off to check out the rest of your place.
