Mets Decorated Room - Johan Santana and David Wright Fatheads

We redecorated my younger son's bedroom recently.  Since Johan Santana (my son's favorite player) left the Twins to go to the Mets to join David Wright (his second favorite player), my son has been a big Mets fan.  So it was no surprise he wanted a Mets theme to his room.  We painted the walls in Mets colors, and got a couple of Fatheads for the walls.  Here are a couple of pictures after putting up the Fatheads (note the lack of outlet covers, which are now in place).

Another Fathead

I got my Mauer Fathead tonight and my wife helped me put it up. It's definitely a two person job. I put it on the wall adjacent to the Morneau Fathead behind the TV. I really like they way they look and they really grab your attention when you walk in the room.


I am losing valuable wall real estate though, and I'm not sure where I'm going to hang all my framed magazines and pictures. I'd also like to buy another couple display cases but I don't know where they'd go. I doubt I'll have any luck convincing my wife to let my collection out of the basement, so I'll have to get creative.

Fathead

My Justin Morneau Fathead showed up today. It was kind of a pain getting it out of the tube, flattened out and on the wall. My wife helped me so it didn't take too long. It's huge and there's not enough wall space left in the basement where you could see the whole thing, so it's tucked behind the TV a bit.


On the TV you can see the highlights of Mark Buehrle's perfect game being played on the MLB Network. Pretty amazing. I have a few cards signed by Buehrle that he was kind enough to sign through the mail a few years ago. I wonder what his mailbox will look like on Monday.
