Black Wallpaper and My Son's Bedroom
I am so excited to start installing my oldest son’s new bedroom!! He is 10 years old and his room is in desperate need of an update. I have ordered his bed and window treatments and the wall paper will be ordered this week. He has a lot of crazy ideas for what he wants for his room, but the end result is going to be a surprise from me. I told him that I am going to mix his creative personality with my “designer ways” and that he could see it when the room was finished. He was excited about having a reveal!

One of his design requests was black walls which I think is really fun! Although I like the look of black painted walls, I don’t think they would hold up very well in a kids room long term. I don’t know about you, but our kids tend to nick up walls and scuff them pretty easily!! I don’t want the room to look beat up after 6 months so I am putting in vinyl wallpaper with a black back ground, can’t wait to share once it goes up!! I looked through a lot of black wallpaper so I thought I would share some of my favorites. I would put any of these in my house!

I can’t get enough of good wallpaper lately! I hope you had a nice weekend, I am off to California this week with another designer which means Jeff is going solo with the kids. I am so thankful for how he takes care of our boys!
Happy Monday!!
