Emory's New Room



One of Emory's requests for his birthday was that we redecorate his bedroom.  It was time for the space pictures loving painted by Ga and little space man border that we put up when he was three to go.  So sad but he was definitely right.

Below are the Before pictures of what his room has looked like since we moved into this house...
With so many legos, storage was a major problem.  Emory also needed a desk where he could get his homework done and just hang out.
And now for the After pictures...
We picked out a darker blue paint and added a two foot wide orange stripe all the way around the room.  It really made the whole room come together once it was up.
Emory's favorite part is his new loft bed and desk.  It has really opened up the room and created so much more space on the floor.
There are still just as many legos but now there are shelves on the desk and bookcase to house all of them.
Emory's original idea for his room was to go all Gator colors....royal blue and bright orange.  The colors that he chose in the end were a nice compromise but he still got a big Gator head to go over his door.
We really like the way it turned out and hope that Emory will enjoy this room for many years to come.
