I was going to wait for Silent Sunday to post a photo of this…….but too excited so am going to post my photos on my blog today instead!!
So another milestone in Burton’s life has been reached this weekend – he has moved out of his cot and into a big boys bed. Despite his over exuberance in other areas of the house with regards to chairs, stairs the sofa etc… he never actually tried to climb out of his cot which I was surprised (and relieved!) about. Still, at 22 months of age we felt it was time to make the transition from cot to bed.
Due to his love of all things Toy Story, we decided to not only move him into a bed but decorate his room in this theme too. While looking on line for ideas, the OH came across a Buzz Lightyear Spaceship bed – perfect for all budding space cadets!! With the bed sorted we found other Toy Story decor items and his new room was turned from a room with magnolia coloured walls and ceiling to this:
The ceiling is covered with glow in the dark stars and planets
For all you Toy Story fans you will see that we decorated the walls to look like Andy’s bedroom in Toy Story 2, blue with clouds.
The border is also glow in the dark, and the toys are stickers but they look so real!
It really does look amazing – top marks to my OH for putting it all together.
As you can imagine, when Burton saw his room for the first time I don’t think he could quite believe his eyes! He was excitedly pointing and flapping his arms, and he ‘hugged’ each Toy Story character and kissed them! He likes his bed and happily took a nap
It’s so good in his room, he doesn’t want to leave it now 🙂

That looks amazing, Burton is such a lucky boy! We did a similar thing for Sam when he went into his big boy bed, but it was Teletubbies back in those days!! It’s a great way to move them into a big boy bed, they have no reason not want to stay in it have they!

I LOVE this room! We are hoping to do something similar for our son when he moves to his big boy room and I’ve been searching EVERYWHERE for toy story cloud wallpaper or decals with no luck. Â Did you paint those yourself or are those decals? If you painted them, did you create a stencil? If decals, where did you find them?

Hi we found the stickers (they are not painted on the wall!) Â on e-bay and the glow in the dark freeze was bought on line – red warehouse rings a bell and the clouds i think my OH had made by a printers – again on line. he buys everything on line!Â
i hope this helps x

This room is a.m.a.z.i.n.g! Any Toy Story fan’s dream. The wall stickers really do look real.
My favourite bit is the ceiling (the child in me wants a version of this in my bedroom).
