Batman Bedroom

So for Nicholas's birthday we redid his room from trains into his favorite... Batman! I didn't want to go overboard with the superhero theme so we decided on a Gotham Cityscape that Mom and I sketched out based on other ideas we had found online. We used glow in the dark paint on the buildings windows and behind the Bat symbol so that at night everything "glows!" It looks very cool and I think that is Nicholas' favorite part! The first weekend he spent in his room he woke us up in the middle of the night because his room was "broken" and it wasn't "glowing" anymore! (The paint only works for a few hours and has to be charged up after awhile.)


Then my mom found this awesome Batman fabric and we made the very cute drapes for his room. I reused Nicholas's old bedspreads and just turned them over to hide the trains. I found a cute fleece Batman blanket at Joanns that I made for him to match the room.

I also found online this huge sticker of Batman (it also came with the little Batman that is ontop of the bridge) that is on the opposite wall by the second twin bed.

On the far wall I have the picture hanger from IKEA that I use in all the kids bedrooms to display their artwork!
