Braden's Big Boy Room

I've had a few people ask me if I plan to keep the jungle theme in Braden's room. In light of his love of Thomas, I have decided to mainly do a Thomas room for him. I found the toddler bed on Kijiji a long time ago and snarfed it up because it was only $50, mattress included. My mom's friend bought him Thomas toddler bedding in the States for $30, that kind of thing is unheard of and unavailable in Canada - so I'm very thankful for friends of friends who travel to the States!

Today Braden was very excited to see that I had Thomas "steekers" (decals) for his walls above around his bed! So he helped me with that and really enjoyed it!

I just ordered 2 Thomas valances off of Etsy, but instead of doing all Thomas, I'm doing a "mutt" room for him. I'm keeping his jungle decals on the wall and I will keep an "ode to his nursery" on that side of the room. Other than that, all my Zoofari nursery items will be gone! I ordered these prints off Etsy:
And even though Braden doesn't know of Star Wars yet, you have to start them young and how could I resist getting him these ADORABLE prints, also from Etsy? I've been coveting them for over a year!
I would have loved to get all 8, but I chose 4 because of the price. I chose Luke, Chewie, Yoda, & R2! I'm trying to find some Thomas prints, but it's just not really working out for me! The ones on Etsy are too expensive, maybe I'll have to just print some and frame them myself? But maybe the decals are enough? His room just seems so BIG without his crib in in, we have 10' walls so I feel the need to FILL his room....but maybe less is more? Once I take down the wooden animals off his wall it's going to seem so bare! The only thing I can think of his hanging this from the ceiling and putting his stuffies in it:
What do you think? I'm not sure...can't decide! Anywho here's a few more pictures from today of my "big boy".
