Noah's Ark Bedroom

Although my son's name is Noah, this never started out to be a Noah's Ark room, it just evolved that way! This room is in the top right corner of the attic and it is rather dark. I may yet change the wallpaper. I love the dark blue stars but I do have the same wallpaper (it is real 1:1 paper) in other lighter colours.

The shabby red shelf started life as a $2 shop non-opening cupboard, as usual I pulled off the doors and added shelves. That cute little chest of drawers came from a second hand shop.

Anne, the lady who helped me with the wiring, asked me what sort of light I wanted in this room and I said a balloon light would be good! So Anne went diving into her boxes of bits and found a round plastic ball to make into the balloon and a little lid to use for the basket. I covered the basket with scrapbooking paper. Elmo came off a cellphone charm.

The Noah's Ark pic on the wall was given to me by a lovely old lady at our club. That cute little golliwog sailor I bought in Melbourne. The toy box I bought from another lady at our club.

I went to a quilt shop to look for fabric to make the bedcovers from and found this Debbie Mumm Noah's Ark miniature print in the bargain bin! The lovely orange teddy bear came from Hanna in Finland.

The chair I made! I had a little bit of this fabric left over from something I made years ago. I had just enough fabric to cover the chair, not a scrap was left!

Hope you enjoyed that little tour!
