It’s the official last weekend of summer at our house! Kole starts school on Wednesday and we’re feeling ready and excited. 6th grade and last year of Elementary school for my youngest! I can’t believe it. We took some time this morning to get his room straightened. After a long summer with lots of friends over it was due! The final touch after some clean-up and organizing was adding this beautiful new blue bedding!

It’s part of Walmart’s new Gap Home collection and I couldn’t love it more! Kole’s nursery was all done in Gap bedding.. a long time favorite at our house. :) Aren’t the striped sheets fun!? Lots of cute throw pillows too. I love this set for a boys room! You can see more fun Gap bedding here. They have so many beautiful options – great quality for such a good price if you are ready for a little bedroom re-fresh!

We had some fun space themed bedding on his bed, but he’s getting older {sigh} and this feels a little more grown up and age appropriate for him.

I love the throw pillows in this collection so much I added a few more on his window seat.

They come in multiple colors and are the softest!

A soft spot for a 6th grader (and some “friends”) to land. :)

Kole still loves all things space/moon so we are keeping his art work up until that changes!

I couldn’t resist picking up this beautiful moon phases canvas to add to his collection. :)

Here are a few other items from the new Gap Home collection I’m loving. So many cute things for bathrooms and kitchens too!

Her are a few pics of how I’ve organized his bedroom..

Honestly his books are the hardest thing for me to keep under control. They multiply so quickly and end up everywhere!


More organization details and all sources are in this post if you’re interested! (Also sidenote.. if something you want from Walmart is out of stock always put your e-mail in the “get in stock notification” box. Most of the time they bring items back and will notify you when it’s in!

Bedroom clean.. check! Closet clean.. check! Mudroom locker clean.. check! School supplies ready .. check! Haircut.. check! I think we’re ready for 6th grade. :)

In the meantime to get us through the last few days of summer while his sisters are in school I picked up a few arts and crafts I knew he would like. I’m desperate to keep this child off the iPad all day and this far into summer we are hanging on by a very thin thread! Ha. I love having things like this on hand for rainy days, down time and birthday gifts They always come in handy. Walmart has so many fun craft options for kids! My girls especially loved stuff like this. They would make crafts and jewelry for hours when they were younger!

Kole doesn’t engage with things like this quite as long as my girls did. This should keep him entertained for maybe an hour if I’m lucky.. then only 11 hours to go.
Have I mentioned that I haven’t had all 3 of my kids back in school since March 2020?
VERY excited for next Wednesday.
