All Things British

The Royal Family has been making a lot of news with their trip down under. So I thought I'd take a stab at a British-themed room. I think it would be fun to do a British-themed room if mom or dad are from England, or maybe they just had a trip of a life-time there. Or maybe like my LO, yours is obsessed with clocks and buses. It also goes away from the traditional boy room themes which I am all about.

Personally I'd go for a simple bedspread like the one below. You can use it for many years and hand it down to younger kiddos. I like to buy quality bedspreads so they last through all the washes.

A chic print over the bed. Nothing too over the top because I am featuring a wall decal that should be the focus of the room.

A cute little bedside clock. I don't like spending too much on clocks as my son is obsessed with them so there is a good chance they will some how get ruined :) This is a Big Ben clock - perfect!

Collect some old vintage English buses and put them up on a shelf.

This is a fun wall decal I found. Make sure your wall is verrrry clean when you apply these decals. They work best on super flat walls (i.e. if you have a wall with small bumps they do not stick well).

I loved the carpet featured in the wall decal picture, so I found something somewhat similar.

 Vintage luggage as a decoration would also be super fun. I especially love the luggage shown here with the British Flag.
