Never have I had so much fun transforming a room as I have now.

Never have I had so much fun transforming a room as I have now.
I am not sure if it was all my Gramps positive energy floating around,
or that I just truly have fun decorating.
I know for sure it is BOTH!~
Let's start with the curtains. Painters tarps, painted and stenciled. I will give a tutorial soon.
Mike thought I was crazy...this is his old red wagon, that has been sitting in our garage for years...what a perfect time to dig it out.It is about 40 years old. And it is serving a purpose...LEGOS!
Now this was fun. Once a pine toy chest turned FUNKAY! I bought the trespassing sign and just sanded the heck crap out of it, I wish things could rust overnight, but they can't to my knowledge.
Tutorial on the chest coming soon.
And yes some rust too!
I forgot to show you a few other things...
These are my Granfathers gloves from when he was a child..I think this must have been an ashtray, it's missing the center piece.
THINGS I did for this room makeover:
The bedside light
The burlap curtains
The chest
Brought in the wagon, that was my husbands when he was Jack's age.
Brought out old time memories and keepsakes of my Dear Grandfather

It looks amazing! I love that engine and the hands. :) Jack peeking in is priceless!
Nice work! Perfect boys room
I love it all, the curtains, trunk and the wagon. I used to put CC's wagon under the Christmas tree with gifts in it. That wagon is a treasure as are the hands.
Debbie you keep amazing us.. This is so nice and I'm sure your son loves it... you are quite decorator. love it...

Love all the changes! What a great way to use an old wagon. Love the trespassing sign, too. I always love seeing drop cloth projects. Can't wait for the tutorial.

Very creative!! Glad he liked it. I love the no trespassing sign on the the box. Very cute!
Very cute! I really like the curtains! They are such a great idea. I need to get some of that painters tarp and do something. I didn't know it looked like that!
Wow!!! What a transformation! That is truly a unique room! I can't tell what my favorite part is! You have outdone yourself!
I love the curtains. I have one of those red wagons in my garage. I never thought of bringing it in to deal with the Lego situation.
Sooo sweet I love it!! Looks like the perfect room for a boy!!
Wild applause from the front row here! Debbie! So awesome. I LOVE the vintage touches and how cool that most of them have deep meaning. The lego wagon is the coolest. And yeah.. sanding that sign? You went all out, girl!
Extremely well done. :)

Wow, that looks amazing! I'm loving that lamp:) How cute that little man took inventory when he got home, had to make sure mom hadn't discarded anything:)
Love it. Great window treatments and paint jobs. Love the old wagon holding his leggos. Yes, you have channeled Donna well.
Debbie, what a great job, I love that your son is looking to make sure all is there. I think you meant these are my grandfathers gloves not hands YEWWW LOL!

I need to learn about this copycat challenge thing. The room is very cute, and I keep reading about the copycat challenge throughout blogland......
Love it Debbie! It looks great and so vintage.
Great job, Debbie. My favorite part is probably the RadioFlyer wagon. I love it...and those hands are amazing. I immediately thought they would look cute cradling an old baseball or something. How wonderful that you even have them. Nice work, kiddo! Hugs-Diana
Wow what an awesome room, I love it. The wagon is a great touch!
WOW!...great look,just perfect for Jack, and using your Grandpa's keepsakes and husbands childhood wagon..PRICELESS!

I'm feeling all "swoony" looking at that room. I'm supposed to be heading to work right now but found your blog and am having a difficult time tearing myself away. Just love that room and your house tour. I'll check back later. Have a great day!
Fabulous and creative all rolled into one!
The room turned out fantastic, Debbie! It also has a soothing feel to it..
Oh Debbie what an amazing transformation! I love how you incorporated the wagon in his room....priceless! Thanks for sharing and your inspiration on anything goes!
Enjoy this wonderful day,
Gail
What a neat room, any boy would just love it Debbie...love how you took your grandfather's objects and used them as a part of Jack's room. The curtains are unbelieveable, I bet Pottery Barn is zoning in on them!
Rondell
Debbie I love the use of the wagon, just fabulous and I can't wait to hear about the curtains. I love em!
I'll bet your son loves it all!

Debbie, You have truly inspired me to tackle my sons rooms!!!
Wow...the rest of the room looks great too! LOVE the idea to put the Legos in the wagon, very clever! We have a "few" Legos at our house too :) Laurel
Hello! This is a great transformation. The red wagon is such a nice touch, and how sweet that you have your Gramps' gloves! Love it all. Thanks again also for hosting the Newbie Party!
Kelly
It looks great, Debbie! I think Granfather's gloves might just be my favorite part. We've all seen bronzed baby shoes, but those gloves are very special!
Hope you have a happy Valentine's Day!

Hi lovely lady.
I need to know the Vitamin you are taking I NEED SOME !!! Your Bedroom makeover for your son is Great Debbie ~~~ Thanks so much for your lovely comments on my Valentine's Day Tablescape xxoo
Diane
Thank you everyone for your kind words. Jack does love his room, he really feels like a big kid now. Of course his older brother wants these tarps too...so I have to get busy and figure out what I will do for big bros room. Thanks again...XO
Definitely a fun makeover, Debbie. Love the idea of pulling in the vintage red wagon. ~ Sarah
I love it - especially the wagon! I know your little guy is proud to have his friends over to that cool space!
The room looks awesome Debbie! Im sure he love it......I may just copy this drop cloth idea. I need something creative over my closet door. Thanks for the inspiration!....Bonnie
Boy, what a fun room for Jack! Love all the little touches like the lamp, the chest, the curtains... Thinking outside the box can be a thought provoking challenge but you succeeded. :-) Love the bronzed gloves!
Yet another gem! I linked it to my FB as my friend Vera Loves it too. Now get to work on the other room as warm days are ahead and you will want to be out on that water soon! Plus I am excited to see more.
LOVE it! Can't wait to see how you did the curtains. Your creativity should be in pill form...I'd love a few.
xo
