One of the first things that I pinned, after I joined pinterest, was this cute alphabet wall. I’ve wanted to make something similar ever since. I didn’t think I could make it work because it would cost a lot to buy all those letters and I have all four of my boys in the same bedroom, ranging in age from nine to two. I didn’t think my nine and seven year olds would appreciate an alphabet wall quite like my six and two year old would. Well, I finally figured out how I was going to make this work for me! I decided that I’m going to decorate right by each bunk, to make each boy feel like they have their own space, although they are all in the same bedroom.
So, this is what my two year old gets by his bed.
This is what I started with. I didn’t bother cleaning up before I took the before picture, although with 4 boys clothes, toys and books all in one room, this really is pretty clean! 🙂 Just keeping it real! Anyway, I plan on decorating on the wall inside both lower bunks and then above the upper bunk.
I used my Cricut and five different cartridges {Boys will be Boys, Lyrical Letters, Doodle Type, Printing Press, Birthday Bash} to cut out all of the letters. I tired to keep it all random, just to add more fun to it, along with the different colors of vinyl i used. It did take a while to cut everything out, and then to decide how I was going to situate it on the wall. I used masking take to tape the letters up and move them if needed, and then started sticking the letters down.
I love that my little guy is excited to go look at the letters by his bed now! I can point to a letter and he will tell me what they are, or I can say, “where is the letter ‘B'” and he will show me. I love it!
I can’t wait to get all of the decor done for this bedroom. They’ve had this bedroom for over 2 years, and I’ve never done much with it, so I hope it all turns out well! {By the way, it’s really hard to get very good pictures underneath a bunk! Who knew?}
So, how would you decorate a bedroom for four boys? I’d love to hear your ideas.

I really like this idea! I think my so would love a wall like this!
Soooo cute!!! What a clever idea to create a “space” for each boy above each of their beds! I love your version o the alphabet wall and it is a much cheaper option!!

That is such a great idea to decorate each space by each bunk! That alphabet wall is so cute! I am sure your two year old will love it for years to come. I know mine would! I am equally impressed you have all 4 boys in the same room. I don’t think my two would sleep!
Darling. I would love to do this in my playroom.
Very cute alphabet wall! Love the website icons as well, glad you could use them! They look good! =)

Cute! My little boy loves the alphabet right now. Thanks!
What a fun idea – so cute! I love how you made the alphabets. I am struggling with decorating my boys room as well. One boys is 14 and the other is 10 and they have very different likes.
I think you did an awesome job…I too have had my eye on those adorable(yet expensive) alphabet walls for some time now! I am just getting started on my boys room..I finally picked out a quilt pattern and now I’m moving on to buying fabric. Hopefully once the quilts are done I will have inspiration for decor:)
This is so cute!! Your newest follower. Love your blog.
I have 4 girls all in one room. They only thing they have in common when it comes to decor is they all love pink. From there, it varies by shade (one hates dark pink, another hates light pink). This is the perfect solution! One of those “why didn’t I think of that?” things! Thanks for sharing!
That’s so cute! Boy rooms are tough.. my son is still in his nursery, but when he eventually moves into big sister’s room and they have to share.. that’s my biggest issue.. making a cute bedroom for a boy and a girl!
Cute, cute, cute!!! 🙂
