Red, White & Blue Boy’s Room & Happy July 4th

blue-star-boys-bedroom
It’s Independence Day here in the USA and a day when our pride for the stars and stripes is most evident. I spotted this patriotic red, white and blue boy’s bedroom on Project Nursery, loved the look and thought it was perfect for today’s post. The walls painted a navy and pale blue, star rug and stylish storage for toys {below} are my favorite elements.

Brenda of alphamom’s 4th of July Confetti Popper Rockets inspired me to make our own patriotic rocket garland. She has a great step-by-step tutorial, so if you are interested in doing this project, head to her blog.

It was an easy craft that the kids enjoyed. Our rockets however, do not include confetti or “pop” – too messy for this mom! They sure look fun in the window, but we hope to hang them outside if the weather dries up!
