The Star Wars Room

Oscar’s room is going to have a Star Wars theme.  He is mad for Star Wars at the moment, having recently discovered the cartoon of Clone Wars.  We have also just finished watching the original trilogy (episodes 4 – 6) with him.

He wants a black room (not happening – but possibly black curtains), a light saber as a light, and pictures on the walls.  It’s taken a while, and a lot of internet surfing, but I finally have all I need.

I found removable wall stickers from Stuck Up Kids:

a doona with both the original and new Star Wars characters on eBay:

and a light saber light on Amazon:

We are still working on the wall colour (for the feature wall), so far today it has been red, blue and now green.  I like the green.

Frame Stage Complete

Well, that was quick!  The frame and roof trusses are up.  Its amazing how our perception of the size of this house changes with each stage.  Today, walking through all the rooms, some seemed bigger and others seemed smaller than when we walked through the pencil mark ups.

The house is also so much taller than our neighbours’ houses.  Something that is hard to gauge when looking at the Harkaway display homes as they are not in a suburban setting.  But I wouldn’t change anything, I love my high ceilings already!
