New Project

Today I'm starting a new project - it's called an overhaul of sons room! Since he's away I'm going to really clean it out. I promised him nothing would be thrown out that I knew he would like to keep. It's really funny how he likes to keep everything the same way. I guess because we move around it somehow feels like home if his room is the same no matter where we live - makes since I guess but I'm ready to give him something a little different. His closet has become the catch all between him and my husband so that will be cleaned out. I'd like to rearrange his room and we are going to have to get him a desk. With him starting high school next year he can't continue to do homework on the floor! He had other options but chose to do it on his floor. I've never been to Ikea but I think I'm going to check it out for a desk. I'd like to do something about his baseball trophies and picture wall - he really doesn't want me to change that wall but maybe I can do something different. I'll take pictures before and after - this may take a while. I wish Girlville lived close by!

I bet you will do a great job on his room. I bet you will like Ikea. I've never been to one but everyone seems to like the ideas or the furniture. K does have the talent...her closets are killing me!
