When professional DIYer and mural artist Carrie Kline, who runs the Honey Do Honey Home blog, wanted to redecorate her sons' bedroom in their eclectic Monticello, Minnesota home, she didn't take on the project alone. Instead, she enlisted help from two people very close to the project: her sons, 5-year-old Rolly and 3-year-old Ruben.
"There's something so powerful about creating a space with your own ideas and feeling like it really represents you. I get that feeling every time I create a space in my home. I wanted my boys to experience that in their own room," Kline says. "I wanted to celebrate their imaginations and let them know that their ideas are important and valuable."
So, before painting commenced, she asked Rolly and Ruben to create mood boards. "I gave them paper and markers and told them to draw their ideas for the room," Kline shares. And her sons got very into their roles as designers. Soon enough, their pages were filled with dinosaurs, rockets, robots, and even their "stuffed animal puppy riding on a shooting star," which they requested be placed on the ceiling (spoiler alert: it was!).
Kline took all their ideas, and the result is completely spectacular…
