Howdy all. I wanted to share some pictures of the completed room for my son who is due in a little over 10 weeks.

The challenges:
The border of C's at the top of the room were a bit of a pain. Finding actual wall stickers proved to be extremely difficult. We ended up buying 60 little 2 inch stickers, sticking them to peel off wallpaper, and then cutting them out. This way I get a Flames border and it doesn't wreck the wall.

Our son's name was hand painted and in the case of the Flames logo for his name, hand made. We bought the 'ARTER' from Walmart and grandpa painted them up all nice, and then we gave him a piece of wood a print out of the 'C' the size we wanted and let him work his magic.

The mobile was incredibly difficult to find a place that would actually ship it to Canada... I kid you not. We ended up picking it up off Ebay and it ended up being great, but that wasn't the first place we looked.

Enjoy!
