miracles never cease...

Detail Boy and I had one hour this morning too quickly buzz through Ikea

 in search of ideas for his room,

 and that included a trip to the restaurant for a breakfast of swedish meatballs...yuck!

It was a success, we have a furniture plan and paint color! 

Here are some peeks...

Besta cabinets in black -brown finish above the bed and nightstands flanking the bed

 creating a built in look. (No TV, despite persistent negotiating!)

 He likes the addition of hardware.

Mellby Chair in Eldris Black & White

I had already put these charcoal paint samples up in his room.

One of the displays at Ikea had this wall color with the dark Besta cabinets,

and he liked it!  Woo hoo!

I suggested this rug for some fun texture, but it got nixed because of the 

'friction!' 

We need to decide on bedding, lighting, rug and a few accessories,

 but the fact that we made these decisions in less than an hour is pretty 

miraculous! 

I almost forgot to share his previous choice...I kid you not!

On a serious note, please pray for our state, as you've no doubt heard,

 the fires are causing untold devastation, thousands have been evacuated and

hundreds have lost their homes, resources are limited and the forecast is for

the unseasonably hot weather to continue. 

Despite my joking about miracles, we're in desperate need of one.

Wishing you a safe weekend, my friends!
