Slice of Heaven

TaDa!

We finally got everything moved into Eric's new room this weekend, and it turned out very nicely. The room is actually very cozy, and even though the walls are a cool gray, the red brings a certain warmth to the room, along with his wood furniture.

Almost everything is the same from his room upstairs, with a few exceptions. We got the bedding on clearance at Bed and Bath, and that was the inspiration behind the whole color scheme. The red book shelves along the bed and behind the desk were ones that Dennis made a long time ago for the boys and used to be green. They work nicely to hold all of those books that he reads in bed. We put one behind his desk to keep clutter off the desk (for pens and such).
The desk wasn't in his room previously, but we've had it stored for awhile, waiting. It used to be mine, and then it was our computer desk for many years until Dennis built the built-in one in our kitchen. The clock was a "room-warming" present that Leah picked out for Eric at Wal-Mart!

Of course the chair-that has already been posted about. Dennis is planning on building a floating shelf on this wall, high up, for Eric to get his trophies off his dresser.

The closet doors were a real challenge, but they are up. I might add that Eric's closet doors are the ONLY ones in the whole house that are actually painted the matching trim white and actually installed. All other closet door are either not hung, or are still that contractor grade off-white color. They look so nice I am inspired to finish the rest of the closet doors in the house now!

And the closet shelving we got from my dad, some leftover he had from organizing his attic.

One project done, another has already begun....next up is Leah's room.
