It feels like just yesterday that I was sharing Boone’s Nursery reveal. Aaaaand now he’s an adult- Just kidding, but dang, time is a thief!!
Since I originally shared this blog with ya’ll, Boone has transitioned into “big boy room,” I figured it was time for a little update!
Luckily for us, the transition was fairly simple, thanks to his Milk Street crib. We bought this Milk Street Baby Relic Batten Crib in Fossil, knowing that time would fly and we would soon need a big boy bed. This crib grows with your littles and turns into their big bed when the time is right. Now he has the same style of bed that Leni has in her big girl room! (Neither one of my babies are babies anymore.. It’s fine. I’m fine..



I love how rustic yet classic this bed is. Since the crib transitioned into the bed, we also didn’t have to worry about finding another color to fit the design. The color of the bed is the perfect match for his room, and how adorable is this Mason Bed Set from Beddy’s Bedding?? The green Beddy is natural and subtle but the safari animals add the perfect about of “fun” without being overbearing! Plus making beds with the zippers are a breeeeeze, so kiddos can do it themselves! You can use code EVA for 20% off Beddy’s!!
For the Holidays, I spruced up Boone’s room and incorporated some of Eva & Co.’s very owwwnn home products. The Modern Farmhouse Christmas Pillow Covers look like they were MADE for Boone’s little rustic room, and the Fog Chunky Knit Throw really brings out and shows off the beautiful gray tones in his bed (Classic + SUPER cozy = winnn for Boone’s big boy bed!). While they definitely make his room look a little more “Wintery,” I’m not sure I will want to take these away when the season is over because they just go with the room so dang well!

The modern farmhouse look of his bed pairs great with the wooden accent wall and the Alabaster paint from Sherwin Williams (in the color “Agreeable Grey“) on his other walls!
Speaking of his accent wall. Do you remember this beauty?! For obvious reasons, ya’ll loved it when I originally shared it. This reclaimed wood accent wall from Montana Ghostwood is something I felt set his room apart in the BEST way. I wanted the look of rustic, reclaimed wood, but I didn’t want to commit to the price of the real-deal material/installation, so I found these wall decals for half the price that are reclaimed wood boards, but they stick right onto the wall! It was SO easy to install, and they look awesome. We used the color “Silver City†and painted the wall behind the boards “Tricorn Black†by Sherwin Williams so that we wouldn’t see any wall color through the small gaps in the wood. I also added his name in these galvanized letters to complete the wall.

We have dreamy, rustic flooring from Hallmark Floors (in the color Malibu from the Alta Vista Collection) throughout our entire house and couldn’t be happier with it. I’ve never been a fan of carpet because if something spills/stains it, it’s game over. Plus, I hate the idea of committing to one carpet- ya’ll know I like to switch things up every so often, so adding area rugs makes it easy to swap out as needed! The wood flooring is the perfect color for Boone’s room, adding to the warm, rustic look, aaaand also the perfect shade to hide a little dust and hair, ha!
To go with his bed, all of his other furniture is and has always been from Milk Street! We chose their furniture for the same reason we chose the crib – they’re classic, well-made pieces that will continue to grow with him!
You might remember we had a matching changing table/dresser in his nursery, but now in his big boy room, we have swapped out the shorter dresser for a smaller/taller version. We used to store the majority of his little tiny baby clothes in the dresser, but now that he is getting bigger, we have been using his closet across the room to store his clothes (shout-out to California Closets for making ALL of my organized-closet-dreams come true!). So to make room for his big boy bed, we opted for this dresser instead. I LOVE the different knobs on the drawers that just add to the classic look.



For a little extra storage, we got these small nightstands for both sides of his bed. They really tie the room together and complete the big boy bed look. Plus, they serve as a nice little hide-away for some of Boone’s toys. With Santa heading our way with more toys, you can give me aaalll the hide-away toy storage – am I right, mamas??

I didn’t want a lot of window treatments throughout the house because natural light is LIFE, but some rooms obviously needed them for privacy or darkness so Benchmark Shutters offered sleek roller shades that you barely notice until you close them. They’re also amazing because they have an automatic rod to open and close them, so there aren’t dangerous, unseemly chords hanging everywhere. Besides, who would want to cover these GORGEOUS Pella Windows up?! They’re Energy-Star rated and I can’t recommend them enough as they give off the perfect light for his big boy room.
Whenever it’s warm out, his amaaaazing windmill-like fan really comes in handy. (It used to serve as a little mobile for baby Boone to fall asleep to but let’s not talk about it because this update is already hitting me right in the mama feels!!!) It looks like a rustic windmill that you would see on a farm, and it just goes sooo stinkin’ perfect with the room’s vibe. It’s the 52″ Monte Carlo Prairie II in the color Aged Pewter from Circa Lighting, and you’re definitely gonna wanna add this baby to your cart. We also still have the (faux) fiddle fig tree in my favorite basket in the corner.
Okay, now let’s reminisce when I had a baby boy and a nursery, and not a full-grown teenager with a big boy room.



I’m so happy with how his room has transitioned, and Boone is THRILLED, to say the least. If you’re looking for an easy transition (that will come waayyy sooner than you’d like it to, let me tell ya..) I highly suggest Milk Street Baby, who has allowed his room to grow with him and made this swap a breeeeze.
