I would like to know where to buy some decorations for my DS bedroom. The theme is construction. I already have the bedroom set. I would now like to buy a lamp and things to hand on the wall. Any idea.

His bathroom is Dinosaurs- I only bought the towels.

I live in northern Massachusetts.

Any suggestions would be great. And if you want to drop by to help me decorate- thats would be great too. Just kidding. I am just not very creative.

Ikea!! They may not have dinosaurs and construction per se, but they have really great sturdy basics.

Here are some cute construction-themed items:

Not so much for dinosaurs. Maybe the canvas art?

I have ordered from this company and generally have been happy with them. We have some butterfly shelves similar to the style of the construction shelves. DH had to "work with" them a bit to make everything line up, but they have been in DD's room for 2 1/2 years and still look great!

ETA: Hmm, I guess the links don't work. Just go to www.lillianvernon.com and type "construction" in the search window.

Do you have a Homegoods store near you? If so, I do very well in their children's department.

Ebay. I have found a ton of stuff there for decorating.

Randomly I saw some very cute wall decals at my local dollar store. Super inexpensive and a good selection to chose from.

HomeGoods! I would say 70% of my kids' room decor is from there. Very cute and very reasonably priced. But, you need to be patient and check often.

And I agree w/ previous poster: Ikea for lamps, storage, curtains/ drapes, etc.

Target has some cute truck stuff right now too. I am kicking myself for not getting the little dump truck pillows that were on clearance last time I was there.

Not exactly inexpensive but cute
