Luke's Western Room

So it's been awhile but the creative juices are flowing once again! I'm not sure why I ever chose to do an airplane theme for the nursery when I clearly have more ideas (and the desire) for decorating "cowboy" style! So now that my little Kidney Bean is 1 year old, he's finally getting his nursery done! Better late than never, I guess!

Here are some of the ideas I've been working on. I don't think I spent more than $5 on any of them which my hubby really appreciates!

My test run on the stencil I made from a photo I found online. Enlarged the photo to 8x10 size, printed, traced on top of clear scrapbook page covers, cut out, and voila! Tomorrow I will hopefully stencil this around the wall of his room! Yeehaw!

Frame from the dollar store, painted red, cut out pictures from calendar(also dollar store) and glued rope onto each side! Easy-peasy!

Three unfinished boards that I brown-washed (mix a little water with brown paint) , glued two boards together and then screwed the star hooks (Hobby Lobby $2 each)on to create a nice rustic looking plaque. Lastly, the Ranch sign was done with a wood burning kit that I bought long before I had any idea what I'd ever do with it! I plan to connect them with rope before hanging them on the wall.
