Lodge Theme Boys Room

When we were decorating our sons room
we were trying to think of something would age well with him as he grew.
My inspiration came from my  inlaws.
They had a lake house decorated similarly.
It felt cozy and warm and more importantly, fun.

The furniture is vintage oak from Haverty's.
We purchased it used from Craigslist.


Fishing Lodge Bedding by Woolrich from Target


Isn't it cute?


Bears are a secondary theme in the room due to his sleeping buddy.

We found this cool woody...
...considered a surfing theme
For now he's hanging out at the lodge too.











Thanks for stopping by the fishing lodge.
Bring your fishing gear next time.

Come see us anytime!

Dr Suess Bathroom- Part II

Back in February I told you about a Dr. Seuss bathroom I was decorating for the youngest children. 
This was the shower curtain I purchased for it.


On a recent shopping trip to Target, I found some items that should be really cute with it.

I bought a set of three, all red, for each child...less fighting later.
I also thought I might have some vinyl lettering, in a cute child's font, made for each item...



...maybe monogram the children's names on their towels.
That's for me...so I know who threw their towel on the floor instead of hanging it up.


I also made some new art to hang on the wall... 

...added coordinating borders around three images...

..and then framed them in a Home Goods frame. 


Oh, I also found three cute little white vases with black lettering.
They were in the dollar section at Target...so that made them only 33 cents each.

I wasn't sure where I would use them at first but I couldn't pass them by.
What a deal!
I took some museum putty and stuck them down on the toilet lid.
I'm hoping that will secure them from the grasp of two small children in the house. 

If you haven't ever tried museum putty, you should.
It feels a lot like Silly Putty. Sticks items to other items to prevent accidental breakage.
Release fairly easy, leaving no residue or damage to either item.
I love this stuff!


I found the flowers in the vases at Hobby Lobby for 50% off.
I have to go back for a yellow flower still...
...I bought a lime green by mistake.
Not sure why...but I thought there was some lime green in the design.

Oh well....that's for another day....
