Lake was more than excited to see his "new" bedroom! It screams "I am from Minnesota!" He loved the slate gray on his walls and ceiling. I am so happy we did the ceiling the same color as the walls, it's very cozy. My hubby made this great magnetic board above Lake's desk with sheet metal and added a hockey stick frame. We will be selling these in our new shop!
I added several vintage hockey pins to Lake's lampshade. They came from Lake's dad, grandpa and uncles.
Yes, you do see a beta in a glass pitcher. Lake wanted his new room to be hockey, fishing and hunting. So I thought he should have a fish to take care of, his name is Lightning.
We took his pucks and medals and made them into magnets. We used Gorilla glue, everyone should own some!
Minnow bucket for the crayons.
His dad's old hockey stick clothing rack.
Lake adores these horns, they still have the velvet on them.
My hubby found this vintage kayak paddle. It's very used, you can see the natural bend in the wood from all the years of paddling in the water.
A vintage fishing pole makes for a nice curtain rod, I was going to use a hockey stick, but this was much cuter.
Zamboni banks....thanks Kyle!
All boy.
My dad framed a picture of our family cabin with logs to hang in Lake's room. It's his favorite weekend destination.
I have always love this old paddle.
Perfect stool from my attic for his little bum. Lake's room is so simple and it will grow with him for years to come.
This post is backwards, these are the before photos. Pink, Pink and more PINK!!!
Wow, did she outgrow this room or what!? Her makeover is coming soon!

I love it! Definitely a "boys" room!
It turned out awesome!!! I love the magnetic board with the hockey sticks! Wat cool!
Lake's room is fabulous!(and what a great name you chose.) I really like the vintage minnow pail and the neat stool. You certainly put a lot of thought into it. Our boys both have hockey /farm /fishing rooms too. Our basement guest suite and tv room have this feel also. Definitely what our kids enjoy and it grows well with them. Thanks for sharing your space.
Great job...so boy! I just love the use of vintage in decorating and in how you repurposed each element. It rocks! (no pun intended)

You're right Becky!! I changed my post title!!! LOL!
What a fantastic idea to use a fishing rod as a curtain rod...genius! This is a brilliant room. What a lucky kid!
Best wishes,
Natasha.

What a great boys room! Lots of creative details! Lucky boy!
I don't know anything about hunting, fishing, or hockey--but even I think this room is great!

Wow! I wish this was my room when I was a boy. (Err... LIttle boy as opposed to they big boy I am today)
Super cool! I think there are plenty of Minnesotans who would love this room!
I have three boys (7, 5 and 2), and all of them would love this room! Congrats on a great makeover (that WAS pink!!)
Gold will not buy everything. ....................................................
That looks great! Nice transformation!
Such a cute room. Love the metal board with the hockey stick frame and the fishing pole curtain rod is so out of the box. Great job.
Love this room! I am from Minnesota too! SMALL WORLD! I love all the hunting, fishing and hockey stuff! You cannot live in MN and not LOVE hockey! :)
Great jon!
Thank you for linking up this adorable room!
What a great looking boy's room! Never any doubt Lake would love it.
I hope you'll swing by AtticMag and tour my home; Alabama Stone Cottage Tour.
I can see that you really paid a lot of attention to detail. And now i have a few things on my list that I want including that wire milk basket (with the jars) and the hockey stick hanger is so fun!
Thanks for linking to our party!
{{{SWOON}}} I so want to someday have a little boy who is into the outdoors like yours! (do you think my pup would appreciate a room like this? no? ok.. :)
This room is to die for and I LOVE the minnow bucket... L.O.V.E it!

I adore this room. Well done.
I hope you will stop by my blog and enter my giveaway.
This room looks great. Cohesively boy without being too cute. I am in the middle of redoing outdated kids rooms too. I can't wait to see what you do with your daughter's space. Thanks for the inspiration.
What a great little boys room! It will definitely grow with him. Thank you bunches for sharing it at the POPP.
love it! My sister-in-law is from Minnesota..Robinsons. I owe both my boys make overs too.
super cool room! I love the idea of the pins on the lamp shade. My daughter is a figure skater and they do the pin exchange at competitions, so she's got a ton. What a great way to display them.
thanks for sharing.
What a GREAT makeover! I love everything and how you incorporated so many awesome details in one room. I bet it will continue growing for ages :D
I love the magnetic board with the hockey sticks! Wat cool!
