Two Houses

inspiration, I think this comes from domino mag (Mark Ruffalo's kids room)

more inspiration

It’s been three years and three months since we moved into this house and the boy’s bedrooms are still not done, they look like they were inspired by a no frills orphanage. Victoria’s room was done within weeks of moving in and she loves it (except for the paint color I forced her to choose…). So I am trying to find some inspiration online but can’t seem to come up with much.  I know that I want some framed vintage posters from Canadian Pacific, like this:

And I know the white Ikea beds and dressers are staying, but that’s all I know.  The boys have asked for their rooms to be painted red and blue, but commiting to a paint color so bold is way too difficult for me so we’ll have to see about that.  Here’s what the boy’s room’s look like now;

Jordy's room

Jack's room

As you can see, the baseboards have been removed so that we could spray foam/insulate to stop the cold air from coming in. We  need to paint before we put up new baseboards (like we did downstairs!!!). Hopefully I will have some after shots soon.
