C1 C2 finally a place of their own

The boys have been loving their new room! There is still plenty to do but at least they are able to sleep in "their" room - which means it is only a matter of time before Jason and I will no longer be sleeping in the living room. YES folks, we have had our make shift bedroom in the living room area since day 1 of moving in - that was back in August.

I shared a few of these photos via facebook, Jason building the 2nd floor loft.



Bargain Bedroom: So my style is always SAVE MONEY.  I have been buying things along the way, slowly building their bedroom sytle. I was able to score really great target sheets at Marc's for just 7.99 a set, and the really cute fox pillows are also target threshold, at Marc's for just 4.99 each. Oh, and I scored mattress covers, thanks to target mobile coupons, cartwheel app and red card savings, for the price of one, saving about $28 bucks.

 

 

The best bargain to date for the room has to be the carpet.  Have you heard of ishoptcounty.com ? If you haven't you are missing out!!  I scored a $500 Bear One carpet gift certificate for only $125, we were able to carpet the boys floor & purchase the flooring for the 2nd story loft with that gift certificate!!! 



 

 

Just a sneak peek of the 2nd story loft, still have some things to do before I get up there to snap and share pictures.

 

 

 

 

This is the opposite wall from the boys bed.  As you can see still lots in boxes and disorganization happening....someday it will all come together.

 

 

To Do List

Install Lighting (hence why the lighting in these pictures is so terrible)

Build stairs or ladder to get to 2nd story (we can't decide which to do)

Install some kind of barrier for the loft (so kids don't decide to jump off of it)

Build headboards & small nightstand in between beds

Art (above dresser)

Finishing painting window trim & install wood blinds

Install celing (under loft) have a great idea just need to figure out how to do it cheaper & DIY
