too girly?

Are any of these appropriate for a boys room or should I just ditch the idea and stick to something that is more "boyish"?  The walls will be green:  Think lego green (the color of green legos) or a more primary green than a pastel. 

Option 1

Option 2 (without the owls, that seems way too girly)

Option 3

  • I like 1 and 2, and think the green color sounds cute.  I don't think the owls are girly at all, but I love owls.  We have this one in DS's room

  • #2 WITH owls. IMO, #3 is way more girly.

     

    However, I'm totally diggin' that rocket ship bedding above!

  • I like #2 and agree the owls are not girly.  James has owls in his forest-theme decor and it doesn't look girly.  I love the colors in this one, too.

  • Also, I don't know if you've put up those decals before, but the bigger the pieces the better.  The thinner, smaller sections (like leaves and thin branches) get tricky.  We did a large branch with leaves and had to take the skinnier sections really slowly.  # 3 kinda looks like the trickiest install, IMO.

    Agreed - #2 ...WITH the owls

    I agree. I think 1 and 3 are girly, and won't grow well with him. Two is not girly to me at all!

  • Love #2 and not too girly. It might not last him past 2.5 though.

    FYI...we have spent hours this weekend doing Blik decals.  The vinyl things are not as easy as they would like you to think.

  • I like option #2.  Forest animals would be so cute!

    Yes! Poor DH had to put up all 60-some leaves on the tree on Anna's wall one at a time. Looks awesome but is no quick job!

  • i like options 2 and 3 for a boy.


  • Yeah looking at it again I'm thinking what a PITA for all those leaves....what was I thinking? 
    I'll have to see if I can convince DH to help me with this project or if he'll tell me I'm crazy pants.

    Thanks for all the input!
