Caleb's Room Before and After

I have been wanting to redecorate the kids's room for a while now and am getting around to it these last few weeks.  I got some free furniture from my grandmother that I wanted to refinish with plans to give Caleb Savannah's old furniture (which was kind of boyish anyway).  When Caleb was on the way, I was in such a rush to get his room together because we moved into our house just a couple of months before he was born and there never had been much in there.  So now was the perfect time to make some updates.  I am not great at putting something together from scratch, but I know what I like when I see it.  Now-a-days there are so many online resources for inspiration.  I used a blog called Lay Baby Lay for Caleb's room update.  I pretty much copied the whole design template.  I wanted something that could grow with him; nothing to babyish.  The theme is "Fit for a King" and here it is!  Enjoy!

 Caleb's room before; not bad, but there wasn't much going on...I wanted something more than the typical letters above the crib. (although I did make the letters!)

 Caleb's room after!  Much more manly.

 Curtains from Carousel Designs.  Most of the framed prints are from All Posters.

I will eventually put something else on this wall, but love the antique map.  We had it mounted on board, because it was going to be over $300 to frame!  Yikes!  It turned out better that I expected.
