It’s All in the Details: Adding personality to my youngest’s room

March 5, 2022 in Decor, DIY's

Last year I updated my youngest room.  It took almost 2 months! I had to repair wall damage after removing warped wood wall boards.  I scraped the  popcorn ceiling,  added all new baseboards, vertical shiplap and more!  All the details on how I updated his room can be found HERE.

After two long months, by the time I was done I had run out of energy before I could add the finishing touches and personality to the space.

The room before I added the character.

His rooms theme is ocean/underwater inspired.  I just never found the right pieces to complete the space. That is until I was shopping on Beddy’s website and found an accessory bundle that had the color of his walls and ceiling and is shark themed!! The bundle included a digital art print, pillows, pillow inserts and a blanket. I also added new bedding from Beddy’s in a new spring print called Aiden.

Anytime I plan to update or make changes to a space, big or small, I create a mood board. I am very visual and like to SEE how items will coordinate together. This helps me to make final choices and hopefully less returns later. This is the mood board I created for my youngest’s room.

The Mood board I made for his room makeover.

These were just the items I needed to bring his room to life!!! I also found some great shark curtains, wall decals, and a sign to complete the space. 

First, I rearranged his room for a better flow and allow him more room to play. I turned his bed and put it into the corner and than added a nightstand. 

I planned out where the shark decals would go… and decided I wanted to add one more detail to pull the room together… so I built a surfboard!!! I painted it in a striped pattern using colors that would coordinate with his room and new bedding. I have all the details on how I built surfboard HERE. 

I hung the new curtains. 

The new curtains.

Put up the wall decals.

The wall decals are repositionable and removable.

Installed the surfboard.

Added the new bedding and pillows and blanket.

And his room was complete!!! 

I also added a nightlight (like his brothers) that protects the moon and stars onto the ceiling. 

The nightlight projects the moon and stars beautifully on the ceiling.

He loves his room and is so excited about it. Every time he walks in I see his eyes light up!

You CAN update your home on a budget and make it beautiful. When we moved in the kitchen needed lots of updates to make it a space that was functional for my family and one we loved to be in. Slowly -one project at a time and MANY years later- it is a space I love to be in, cook in and make memories in. ❤️

I kept the same footprint..same flooring- even the same cabinets (I built new upper doors). Some of the updates include: added an island, kept the same countertops - they are painted with an epoxy countertop paint, new lighting, painted the cabinets and walls, tile backsplash, new hardware, new sink and faucet and new appliances.
