Otherwise titled “My P Man is Growing Up”. 

I mean, really, when did my baby get so dang big? He’s old enough to pick out his OWN room decor?? This seems so incredibly wrong to me.

Thankfully, he trusts his momma’s decorating skills and only had one {actually two} requests when it was time to update his room to “big boy” style…

…A CHALKBOARD WALL AND A 42″ FLAT SCREEN TV. 

Small demands from a five year old, wouldn’t-cha say?

The chalkboard wall was quite easy. And cheap too.

The 42″ flat screen?

Who does this kid think he is!

I didn’t have a 42″ flat screen tv in my bedroom until 3 years ago.

I’m hoping his next request isn’t a pony because I clearly can’t follow through on that one.

Ahem.

For now I am hoping the Mr. Stiltz {the giraffe} is good enough.

I adore this picture {taken by KPP} hanging on the left as you enter his room. It captures his personality to a tee!

His bedding is Dwell Studio Transportation.

I really like that it’s modern and boyish at the same time without being superhero-y.

I’m not hating on superheros. Or maybe I am.

My dad helped me create this wall art {inspired by Pinterest of course}.

One of my favorite parts of his room is his school desk. This past year they tore down my old high school to build a new one. They decided to auction off EVERYTHING inside and this little desk is a gem I got at the auction {for like $15}.

Now hopefully I will be able to get him to do his homework at it.

This piece of wall art is another DIY canvas project by me. Similar to my first canvas tutorial, but this time I used a fun transportation stencil! You can find the FULL tutorial here.

I forgot to mention that the cute cubby thing {holding all my son’s “friends”}…also made by my dad.

We painted it white, but trimmed it out in a light colored wood. Love the contrast!

I found this wall stencil on Etsy by searching growth chart wall decal. You can find the exact one here.

This chair has been a save-all! I ordered it from PBK and my son uses it EVERY single day.

Mainly to watch his lovely 42″ flat screen. 🙂

I really need to update this picture of P when he was one grabbing his fat belly, but I just can’t bring myself to do it yet. I’m waiting for him to insist that I take it down…but until then…it shall remain up!

There you have it! P’s bedroom re-do…big boy style!

What do you think? Any suggestions on what I can add?
