Superhero Room

I think I'm calling it good on Parker's Superhero room. It all started with Parker's superhero pillows I made for his bed and grew from there. I like to keep the main items in the room basic and then accessorize with fun items. P's bedding is from Target, a solid navy blue quilt, that is reversible with a lighter blue color. His curtains are also from Target, navy blue blackout curtains, attached with clips.

In addition to the pillows, I made six superhero canvases, a Super Parker side table, a superhero brothers print and a superhero lamp. I converted his train table to a multipurpose play table and painted his dresser bright yellow. I accessorized with a few framed pictures, a white wooden P and some superhero figurines. His toys are somewhat organized in red bins under his play table and in clear plastic bins in his closet.
