Before #3 we used this room as our school room.
I loved the green we had painted it so when we found out that #3 was going to be a boy I just wanted to add a few things to it.
We (ok…I had nothing to do with it) added the bead board and I painted the dots all over the walls.
I just used different size plates and bowls as templates and painted them in with chocolate browns, whites and sage.
I love the mix of the greens and the chocolate browns.
I really wanted shutters for his windows because his room is southern facing and the morning light is so bright.
We priced different shutters out and we ended up just getting some at JC Penney that were really affordable and they look great.
I wouldn't use these in the living room etc. but they are perfect for a bedroom.
While I was pregnant with our little boy I painted this for him.
I had been looking for something similar but everything I saw was a few hundred.
I love that this room will grow with him until he has his own tastes.
The best part is that he loves his room and spends so many hours driving cars around, building train tracks and playing barn in here.

i LOVE this room!!!!! my son was able to pick any color he wanted for his room…and he picked a very similar color green (let’s not even discuss the BRIGHT pink my daughter picked for her room!) it looks soooo great!
What a perfect room! I love the little activity center (great rocket, by the way!) and the book rack!!! I have a bead board backed plate rack in storage that I’ve been meaning to turn into a rack like that for my kitchen/parlor.

Loving this room! I also wanted to let you know that I was tickled pink to see you were over to visit my little place today ~ thank you!

The room really does look straight out of a magazine…everything was just WONDERFUL!!! And what a neat color too…I just LOVE your shop too…thank you for stopping by my blog too and your wonderfully nice comment…I really enjoyed looking at more posts of your blog…those raspberries from the post before I just wanted to eat out of the picture!

What a fabulous room for your boy, Jeanne. Love it!
such a sweet room.
p.s. are you not using his name anymore?
Love that green! It works for older boys too, so hopefully you won’t be painting and painting as they get older.
Love seeing the inside of the blog buds’ homes. So fun.
oh jeanne – his room is awesome. i love the colors!! and the dots on his wall are a great accent. what a great room for the little guy.
What a delightful & fun room:) No wonder your little boy spends so much time in it!
girlie…that looks like something right of a catalog or magazine….
perfectly charming
& perfectly all boy!!
ps–if they sell out of my size, can i borrow your boots?
What an adorable room I wish I had an eye for tying all the colors together and themeing things better. We are sort of hodge podge at home but four boys will do that to you I guess. Super super cute!
I love teh room and colors. And thanks for showing some of your craft projects. I already have ideas going in my head for future gifts for newphews and a niece. And I’d even have fun in there if it was a craft room!
That could not be more perfect! Love it, Jeanne!
GORGEOUS! lucky kid 🙂
Where did you get the magazine rack that has his books in it? I’ve only found them at Pottery Barn and I’m not in love with it. HELP ME!
What a great room….I especially love all the books. You did a great job, now show the others. Have a blessed day.
I love the green and brown combination. This is a fabulous little boy’s room!
Jeanne I love this room- the colors are great. You really have a great decorating touch! it looks like a picture out of my favorite catalog!
I love it! Is it wrong that I want it for my bedroom? 🙂 Well, maybe minus the boy stuff, but I’ll take the walls and dresser. 🙂
Hello, you have the most fabulously wonderful site here and I had to leave this comment for you ! Your posts are beautifully written, creative and original too, and you have interesting pictures.
It’s all perfect !
Thank you for sharing your site and best wishes…. ‘Happy September’….
Adorable. I love how serene the colors are, a perfect background for playing and imagining!
Loving this room! That green is the exact green (or darn close to it) that I’ve been dreaming of for our little guy’s room.
Jeanne, his room is adorable, I love the color, the chocolate browns, his little bed (I still have mine in a crib) and that he loves it, that is the best part! thank you for sharing…!
P.S. Good for your for home schooling and including your husband and allowing him to help…sometimes we have to let go of the control! 🙂 only sometimes…hehe!
The dots add such a cute little touch of whimsy!
