You could do a rotating gallery of their creations...either with floating frames or black frames that you switch out over several weeks? Love the room and what you've done so far. It's hard to know what to do with such a big wall! I have that problem, too!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11073784142254610233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576659341448084882.post-6679284070686143942009-09-09T05:59:16.169-07:002009-09-09T05:59:16.169-07:00Hi!

Love the fun red letters and the hot air balloons. A friend of mine recently did her little boys nursery in a subtle "around the world in 80 days" theme with maps and vintage-looking hot air balloons it looks great. I like the map suggestion someone else gave, but I think it would look cool to cut up a huge map in and hang it in a diagonal series mirroring the shape of the staircase. Sorta like this:<br />http://www.centsationalgirl.com/2009/07/the-staircase-reveal-part-one/<br />Your frames would have to be much larger to be in the same scale or they'll look like they're just floating around up there. Actually, maybe just several large maps instead of cutting one up?<br />Anyway, hope this helps!Pam @ bibbidi-bobbidi-beautifulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07665004943835477442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576659341448084882.post-53012686270155794922009-09-09T04:56:03.778-07:002009-09-09T04:56:03.778-07:00Lucky lady to have such a sweet bonus room!

Thanks! :)<br /><br />The cute cute hot air balloons reminded me of travel, which made me wonder if you could frame or have a mural painted of a United States map??<br /><br />I also LOVE the idea that someone else had of doing something with the alphabet. That would be fun and educational, and something you could easily change out as the children grow.<br /><br />Beautiful room! :)Amanda @ Serenity Nowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483017563206007698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576659341448084882.post-20949022771516705262009-09-04T19:06:11.433-07:002009-09-04T19:06:11.433-07:00You could do BIG caricatures of your kids on that ...You could do BIG caricatures of your kids on that wall...especially since it's their playroom.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576659341448084882.post-77144838773744201552009-09-03T09:01:49.958-07:002009-09-03T09:01:49.958-07:00I am an administrator for a Get this Look for Less...I am an administrator for a Get this Look for Less segment on a design web site and my plan for next months feature includes a large wall behind a couch. The designer filled the space with framed antique prints of birds. Although you may not want to use antique prints of birds in your room (which, by the way, is lovely!) the design layout may work for you. Visit my blog and click on the link for Design Style Guide. The feature with this look should be up sometime in the next few weeks.Karenhttp://www.elsieeleanor.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576659341448084882.post-63100117513673761042009-09-02T22:00:41.234-07:002009-09-02T22:00:41.234-07:00Oh how I would LOVE a playroom ;) We just have toy...Oh how I would LOVE a playroom ;) We just have toys out all the time!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09733549676962782650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576659341448084882.post-66904953322143556532009-09-02T20:32:27.159-07:002009-09-02T20:32:27.159-07:00I love love love these rooms. my son has a play ro...I love love love these rooms. my son has a play room too but it's certainly not this cute!!Lacie @ Creative Attemptshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11101179226388312136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576659341448084882.post-63952255457439274492009-09-02T14:24:31.476-07:002009-09-02T14:24:31.476-07:00How about doing a family photo wall?

Love your playroom, so jealous that you have 2 bonus rooms--awesome! A couple of things came to mind for suggestions for your wall. First, maybe an alphabet assemblage of sorts. I just saw one on another blog today (lizeaton.typepad.com). Or, maybe a grouping of flashcards (I love the Melissa Sweet illustrated ones from eeBoo) hung in Dollar Store frames spray painted to your color(s) of choice. Good luck, I'm sure you'll come up with something great!
