First room is done.

Andrew's Bedroom





Well the first room of the house is done. Andrew's bedroom.  When we found out we were moving and weren't going to have a guest bedroom anymore I offered the queen bed we had to him.  We decided to go ahead and have him pick a new comforter.  The only stipulation was that it had to be something he would like for awhile and not out grow too soon.
He decided to go with black and gray.  I didn't want to paint the walls black so I said why don't we pick an accent color you will like for curtains and pillows.  We made a trip to the fabric store while we were living in Knoxville and Drew chose this bright electric royal blue.
We picked up enough fabric for long curtains and a few throw pillows.
We decided to paint 3 walls gray and paint one wall to match the accent color on the fabric.  I also painted these nice big shelves for him.  Currently they have all of his trophies and the stuffed animals he isn't willing to part with yet.
I went ahead and made the curtains, I also sewed black fabric to the back so he could have blackout curtains to make his room really dark.  I also made two throw pillows to match.
As you can see he just had to hang up his Black Ops & Modern Warfare posters to make it more to his liking.  I think the room came out great and hopefully Drew won't want it changed for quite awhile
