Hey Friends!

I thought I would take a minute today & share with you an adorable room at my mom’s house. When my sister moved out several years ago, my mom decided she would use Cortney’s room as a nursery/kids room for my boys.

My mom wanted to go with a “vintage toys” theme for the room & it couldn’t have turned out any cuter! Sadly, I don’t have pictures of the room when it was a nursery, but I finally got my rear in gear & took some photos of how it looks today….

Since both of my boys have grown out of the crib stage, my mom & dad recently purchased a queen size bed for this room. Now the boys can share a bed when they come & stay all night. They already had the headboard, so after purchasing the mattress it was time to get some new bedding!

My mom didn’t want to spend a lot of money on the bedding and she wanted to go pretty neutral. There was already so much going on in the room in terms of the accessories, that it was important to keep the bedding pretty plain. She ended up finding the tan comforter at Walmart, the navy blue bedskirt at Goodwill, and then she made all of the pillow shams herself.

There really is SO MUCH to see in this room….so many little details in terms of all the chotskies! I think I will just let the pictures do the talking for the most part & chime in only when I need to!

You can see the theme of “vintage toys” loud in clear in all of the accessories throughout the room. There are litte vignettes everywhere….

Raggedy Ann Dolls and rocking horses….

The little shelves above the windows were built by my dad. You can see by looking at the picture below, that the curtain rod is built into the shelf….so cute!!

More vintage toy decor in this little tricycle….

My mom bought a few of the furniture pieces in this room at yard sales and thrift stores & painted them the red color you see here. The “Rock-a-bye Baby” was a custom order vinyl from Uppercase Living. Griffin made his way into a lot of these photos, because he happened to be playing in the room while I was taking these pictures. I don’t know about you, but I think he makes a nice little photo prop! 🙂

Here is a look at the room from the opposite corner. The red dresser you see in this photo, was one that she had when my sister lived at home. She painted it red to match the rest of the room, then mod podged brown paper to the drawer fronts & stenciled numbers on the front of each one. You can’t really see it in this photo, but the also used an antiquing medium to give the paper an aged look & add a little more character.

These old suitcases were a yard sale find & kinda serve as a nightstand on the side of the bed. I love the way she has them decorated….probably one of my favorite things in the room!

Airplanes…

And toy soldiers….

My mom also made the curtains in this room. She used a navy blue ticking fabric and purchased these adorable star tie-backs.

You can see that the room is totally kid approved….

Well, that pretty much wraps up the tour!

What is your favorite thing about this space?
