May the Force be with You

GIVE AWAY!!!

I can't be for sure, because I don't know every six year old boy on the planet, but my Connor has to be the biggest Star Wars fan on the planet.  He lives Star Wars.  He asked me once why I hadn't named him Luke.  If I had only known, I might have.  

Recently I bought him some very cool vintage prints for his room, but after they were hung, I took them down and returned them.  Just because I love vintage, doesn't mean my boy does.  I thought about it, and I kinda felt pretty stupid, Star Wars.  What was wrong with me?  I should have known better. 

So I hunted down some Star Wars art on Etsy, and wasn't disappointed.  I found some awesome prints for his room. 

I made a lot of changes this week in his room, it was time to make it even more Big Boy.
I got him the mirror for over his night stand/dresser.


I bought these from Cutitoutart on Etsy.  The seller was awesome, more than happy to change the back ground color of each picture.  I love how Vader is red, it's such a cool pop of color with the other three in tan.  Connor picked which characters he wanted, I was surprised when he said he wanted Han Solo.


These are hung right next to the character art.  They are blueprints from 1977 of the two of the ships in the movie.  The Millennium Falcon and Luke's Land Speeder.  I bought these from Goblinhut on Etsy, very cool.

Then I found these movie posters at Joneallen, again on Etsy.  They were originally 11x17, but I asked if they could be made into 11x14, and of course they could!  How awesome is that!  I just love the helpful sellers on Etsy and the unique items you can find. 


Not sure if you remember these, but they were originally red, I decided to tone the red in his room and painted them Almond.  I should mention the 5 layers of primer it took to cover the red!  Yikes, red is hard to cover.  Then I took my chalk and wrote "May the Force be with you" on the top one.  The bottom one is a magnet board I made, the magnets are clone trooper, I made them too. How fun!


Thanks for stopping by and checking out his big boy room!  May the Force be with YOU!!
