First we hit up the Cheap Thrills Warehouse sale
I had been looking for some vintage signage letters & i scored 3! yeah!
We got this a couple of years ago & i LOVE anything vintage & my husband loves cars....so naturally for the boys room theme it's- vintage license plates & some route 66 pieces. this is kind of my inspiration for the room..

my V is a basic wood V from Hobby Lobby. primed it, painted it yellow & roughed it up with some sand paper.

the E is a fiberglass E from Hobby Lobby (seeing a trend at all?) it was a nasty gold color, so i sanded it down, primed it and painted it the royal blue. and then i roughed it up to look vintage-esque too.

That corner of the room is so different now! i love it! the colors are pulled from the license plate colors & really work on that short wall. Something different. Very much my style! I still have a lot of road signs & some other fun pieces to to hang up, but I am waiting on the husband to hang 4 shelves for me so i can get. it. done.
Anxious...can you tell????
