My son hated change and always wanted the same holiday decor brought out. My grands don't play with many of their toys here, but they don't want me to get rid of them. Oh well. The entire family leaves me with things they don't want to chuck...why not the grands? I do think the box of cars looks especially nice on the shelf.

It's kind of sweet actually but it's hard when they want to keep it all. Using the top bunk for Legos is genius too. And guess what color my son's room is - green of course!JoAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082527065637299273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4159257200454865972.post-61030659734575503232016-03-03T12:57:56.993-05:002016-03-03T12:57:56.993-05:00This looks so familiar to me!

The shelf is awesome and I wish you luck with the neatness.

I absolutely love the idea of the play area above the bunk! How creative and wise using the space so well!<br /><br />I saw the tin letters like K in Hobby Lobby and loved them~it is neat to see someone use them!!!<br />JenniferHumble wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02823200562312609670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4159257200454865972.post-12161140607550192232016-03-03T11:06:03.466-05:002016-03-03T11:06:03.466-05:00What fine interests Kyle has!

Of course, it can also be frustrating that <i>everything</i> has equal value! <br /><br />I just had this conversation with someone yesterday...that children's rooms should be a reflection of who they are and that they should have the freedom to express their loves and style (within reason). I know that you and Kyle will come to some solutions and his room will be great!! Cheryl https://www.blogger.com/profile/00063844335185525553noreply@blogger.com
