I did put it on screws that are in the studs, however. Is that London print fun or what? Oversized is the way to go with children’s art- and it’s not too heavy either that it scares me above the bed. We use this as his “back up” bookshelf since his other bookshelf is filled.

His book / toy shelf is versatile in that way. I am hanging on to the stuffed animals for now because I am not ready to let them go! Robbie doesn’t have nearly the same amount of toys he used to. Moms of younger kids- as your kids get older they have a lot less stuff! It DOES get easier in that regard. That book and toy shelf have been shared by two of my kids.

We’ve had them a year now- they are an affordable way to update a space with function. Those affordable wooden hooks are handmade and pretty neat! I didn’t bother putting them into the stud since these just hold his hats. I laughed with my husband because when I told him about my favorite animal posters, he told me about his favorite Jenny McCarthy poster he had up on his wall.įish Poster / Magnetic Wooden Frame / Hooks / Book and Toy Shelf If you click on their Amazon shop you see they make these “collection” posters for everything: seashells, birds, animals, etc. I found that fishing poster AND the magnetic wooden frame AND the wooden hooks off Amazon! Thank you, Prime! I am obsessed with his fish poster, mostly because I used to hang these kinds of posters on my wall as a kid. Those framed nautical flags on the wall above make me happy! A nod to my coastal style but also Robbie’s love for the water. If you like this rug you can see how it looked in our master bedroom, before we moved it up to the kids’ playroom!ĭresser / Nautical Framed Flags / Lamp / Striped Camp Stools That is a great combo- the jute makes the chenille strong and durable, and the chenille makes the jute not scratchy. I get asked if his jute chevron rug is scratchy – it is awesome and actually soft! In fact, I liked it so much I bought a second one. After our dog threw up on it last year, I washed the cover and it came out perfectly- so I can attest to its’ longevity now too. I bought him that modern bean bag chair to read in because I remember loving my bean bag as a kid. Just being truthful, because it does look like they are deep drawers in the photo- trust me, they aren’t! Honest feedback here? Although I love the way his dresser looks in the room – I’m not sure I recommend it.The drawers do not hold that much stuff! My kid wears the same 3 shirts anyways- so we make it work- but I wouldn’t go this route if I were buying again. I like that the white nightstands contrast the black Jenny Lind bed. The drawers roll out smoothly and we are two years in- so far so good. The nightstands were a budget buy that we picked up from Target! They often go on sale and we had them delivered with their two day shipping. And of course, I love that slightly wrinkled look linen has. It doesn’t feel too “nice” for older children. I was able to get it right off with a little Shout Out stain spray. Robbie isn’t supposed to eat up here but he got chocolate on it after Christmas. London Art / Duvet / Please Sleep pillow / Triangle PillowĪs far as bedding for his Jenny Lind bed, we love his blue and white duvet. It looks great against the black of the bed. Robbie’s walls are Sherwin Williams Extra White (which we have all over our home – see this post for more examples of how Extra White looks in my home in different lights). An Etsy search is worth checking out if you want to go the antique route!īed / Duvet / Triangle Mudcloth Pillow / Nightstand / Lamps / Striped Camp Stools / Bean Bag Chair / London Art Other Details In His Room We also considered some of the more affordable beds, and briefly considered buying an antique freshly painted off Etsy. The mattress sagged at the head because the bed was not made with enough slats. I am pretty sure the wood dented just from my kids breathing on it! I have never seen soft wood like that. We bought it years ago because it was cheap.

Our old white bed was from Wayfair and a major bummer. A black Jenny Lind bed sounded just right! Before – The Old Bed We were planning on replacing his bed anyways, but once I saw this I knew we would be picking something dark. Although white is my go to, he has his old white bottom bunk when we moved in, and I didn’t love how it blended in.

It’s no secret that I love a room full of coastal colors, but I wanted a twist in our middle school son Robbie’s room this time. But first, I have “before” pictures to show you what a game changer the bed is in his room. I have 9 Jenny Lind beds, from affordable to high end, rounded up below.Īll of these were beds we considered before we bought our Jenny Lind bed.
