Another part of the playroom finished

Here is another part of the playroom/schoolroom that is finished:

We took the table and chairs we already had, and painted the table ice blue and the chairs cherry red. The shelf was $4 at Ikea that I also painted red, that holds a red pencil sharpener and a pencil holder that is an old seasoning jar. There is a ribbon and I put vintage scrapbook papers on clothespins and the kids can also display their work on the ribbon with clothespins.



I love the colors of the "pencil holder" with the light blue, red and yellow walls. I wish my camera captured the colors better.
I had the boys paint pictures on canvas ($10 for the 2 at Micheals). Here is Nathan's snail with pom pom antenae and button flowers and sun:

Here is Alex and Daddy's castle and button dragon. Todd did the dragon and drew the castle, Alex did the moon button and painted it:

I loved these scrapbook papers! It's the same collection as the banner papers and fits my theme perfectly (vintage bright colors):
