I have slowly been revamping the boys old pirate ship room.
The boys have moved into a new room and this room is going to be our new guest room.
It's actually a pretty special place. Darcy and I are foster parents and often have little people of various sizes and genders staying with us.
I want this room to be warm and welcoming for anyone who may be staying with us. So I am trying to stick with a gender neutral colour scheme and decor. I can't wait to show you the whole shebang!
But first I added a pop of colour to this little lampshade by adding a whole bunch of bright, yellow buttons!
I gathered up every yellow button that I could find and plugged in the hot glue gun.
After watching a few episodes of pvr'd Masterchef, I had covered the lampshade in bright bursts of yellow.
Our completed little lamp.
I am loving how it's turned out so far. Just a few more little knick, knacks and a giant world map and it'll be time for the full reveal.
Thanks for visiting!
Super cute! Love the details of adding the colored buttons. That room is decorated to cute. Have to say that I LOVE the night stand too!
