Nic's Room: Take 2

Oh lordy - he did it AGAIN. Maybe we call him Britney Jr? Nic cannot make up his mind about his room (who can blame him, though? When you're five, everything is cool!).

So I decided to take matters into my own hands. And after watching an episode of Junk Gypsies on HGTV, I was inspired by their Boy Scout room.

I want Nic to be a boy scout - in all definitions of the term. He is so curious, loves everything having to do with the outdoors - so I am going to encourage that.

Nic is moving into Isabel's old room... which was Swiss Cheese at its finest. We were up all night last night filling holes and painting. Oddly, the paint color I chose, Cabo by Behr, looks pretty similar to to the original builder color, it has a more gray undertone. And BONUS, now it's WASHABLE and not flat.

I am working on a new moodboard, but in the mean time I wanted to share some before and after pics of the paint.



The walls went from a lilac purple to a khaki beige... The beige will set the tone for Nic's new room! We will be pulling in some fun outdoorsy-type stuff, including some cool rocks we found on our "vacation."

Here are the four corners of Nic's room, a little tug at my heart strings:


More to come...
