Kids Room

After writing about the kids sleeping in my room, I realized that I never even posted the kids room. Crazy!

I already had everything ordered and shipped to the Brooklyn apartment before we even moved into the house. The teepee I bought from Amazon along with the firefly lights. 

The carpet and 'big boy' bed are from Ikea. 

I also got the adorable art work from Etsy. It reminded me of the art in Wes Anderson movies. 

And of course the pin board I made out of sticks. 

It's a total boys room. Full of days of hiding in the tent and jumping on the bed. Ha!

Kids Table and Chairs

Wow! I didn't realize that I haven't posted anything in weeks.... Oops :-/

So I'm gonna do some throwback posts (things I've done awhile ago but never wrote about). 

I'm starting with the kids playroom. 

If anyone was ever at my house where I grew up, you might remember these table and chairs.... They were mine when I was little!!! I think it's crazy that I still had them with all the times I moved. 

So I spray painted them and now they look this this.... 

They are a little beat up now because the boys are, well boys! Hahaha. I just bought a spray paint that was a paint and primer and then just went to town! 

I also painted the TV stand. I got that at a estate sale for practically nothing and it was a real piece of poo when I bought it. 

It looked like there was blood splatter all over it....... 

But that's all gone now ;)

And I loooove the handles!! I just scrubbed and cleaned them and now they look aaaamazing. 

This one was a little more difficult to do, but it was soooo worth it! I sprayed it with a primer first. Then I used regular room paint I had and painted it, about 3 coats. Then I sprayed it with a protective gloss topcoat, that's why it looks so shiny. 

I think it's actually a kitchen cabinet because it has a tin top but it works in the playroom now :)

So in total, I think I spent less than $50 on the furniture and paint in this room.  Yes, it is a playroom and he kids just trash it anyways but I still think it should look kinda cute ;)

Happy Monday everyone!!
