Drum roll…Preston’s Bath and Room Revealed!

The original floor plan of our house called for three bedrooms upstairs with a hall bath for the two smaller bedrooms.  Since I have another bedroom on the first floor and Preston’s bed would barely fit into one of the rooms, I decided to have the wall knocked down to give him a large room (larger than mine) with the bathroom in his room. In keeping with the construction theme he had as an infant, I added to make it a transportation room.  Mind you we put all the toys away for the pictures.  He is very very neat, but he usually keeps a few stray trucks and cars on the carpet!

In his nursery he had truck curtain rods.  Naturally Pottery Barn Kids no longer carry them, so the middle window just got a nickel plated rod from Target. 

My grandmother who has passed on made that train rug for my brothers.  I’m so happy that it is now in Preston’s room!

His furniture did not come with a nightstand.  Thankfully Target had a great one (Target had a lot of great stuff-like those pictures hanging too-courtesy of Aunt Marrah’s housewarming gift)!  In the drawer he keeps his “important papers” like his post card from Caty.

My mother bought him that other train rug by the larger dresser!

Close up of the bedding here.  I am so in love with the quilt.

The bathroom is a Yankee inspired theme.  It took forever to find a pinstriped shower curtain.  There is also am amazing website called Everything’s Baseball.  It’s where I found a ton of stuff.

Mel bought Preston that stepstool for his second birthday.  It started the theme idea. I even found baseball knobs for the cabinets.

Paper Mache tissue box cover from Mary Kelley, glass nightlight that Preston picked out and I changed all the light switches to antique baseballs.

Yankee Stadium sign from Grandma and PaPa and a Thomas Kinkade painted old Yankee Stadium which has the Bronx County Courthouse in the back where I used to practice.

Over the toilet we hung the shelf with the mini baseball glove (my favorite), mini Yankee seat and ball and the cutest picture of baby Yankees looking at the All Star Greats!!!  I also have old navy and white towels with a navy waste paper basket.  Preston sure does love his new room and bathroom!!!
