From Nursery to Big Boy Room

We recently moved our boys into the same room together.  Since the room was previously our youngest son's nursery it needed to be updated to a big boy's room.  I thought I would share what made this job so easy.  I saw on Pinterest a couple years ago that you could embroidery hoops for a wall decoration.  That is what we did in the nursery.
                              We chose a cute animal and polka dot printed fabric for the nursery.

So no one would see the excess fabric I cut the fabric to size and hot glued it into place. 



Easy? I thought you might think so.  ;)

It is just as easy to remove the fabric and replace with something new.  That is exactly what we did when our five-year-old son requested a superhero theme!  

We are a Marvel family so we chose Marvel's Avengers. 

 Avengers Logo 
 Ironman 
 Captain America
 Spiderman
 Thor
 The Hulk 
Finished! 

Want to know the best part? 

 This makeover was totally free! 

 You could use a themed fabric which would be fairly inexpensive since so little fabric is needed. You could simply look at some images and draw them onto white fabric you already have at home.   I used some off white fabric I had been given, a pencil, sharpie fine point marker and Crayola markers. All things I already had around the house. (I recommend fabric markers if you have them but the Crayolas are a great compromise if you don't have any!)  

This was a fun, quick and easy makeover!  Looking forward to seeing what you do!  

Happy Creating!
