OT: MGo Decorators

I love Bo, but I'm not sure I'd put his Fathead above a crib.  Your wife is a bigger Michigan fan than I, which is saying a lot...

They'll be the class of 2031 versions of the Talbotts...

...except actual twins.

Don't look for 'stock' stuff that you can find anyhwere.  Create something that is truly special.  

A 'faux painter' is your friend.  Have the painter come in and paint what you want on the wall.  (like a mural)

I'm in the process of having the the locker room be painted on my wall in a corner, in real dimensions, so it looks like a real locker room.  The current plan is to have four lockers, with four jersey's hanging with each of our names on it. (wife and 2 kids)

I also have 'the team, the team, the team' going on a wall along with a couple other sayings..

Team 106

Those who stay will be champions, etc

He is also taking my old white fridge, and painting it into a michigan helmet.

It's more expensive, no doubt, but I think worth it. 

They would have looked a lot better wearing Maize and Blue

paint the walls maize, then have a blue banner at the top and stencil in the quotes in black? Then hang a few Bo pics or Michigan framed pics.

I love Michigan, but can't imagine going that far.  Of course, gotta start 'em young.  Check out a site like http://www.whatisblik.com/ for some ideas.  They can make whatever you want (think of it as a "fathead" type of wall mounting).  She might have to just do a simple "the team, the team, the team".  A picture of Bo could be kinda creepy to a little kid.   The stuff is nice and easily changed if wanted.

Paint the walls Maize and Blue

M Den & Moes for a couple flags and pennants,Michigan Baby stuff

Fathead for a couple things to up big space on the wall

Boom , your set

I think you should have the banner over their cribs

"Go Blue"
"Mommy and Daddy Support You"

I want pics when this is complete.

:)

This is only a half-real suggestion.  Not entirely sure about the mommy and daddy part, but I think it's slighly clever, kind of cute, but maybe too kitchy.

If it were me, I'd probably go with maize-ish and blue-ish stripes on the walls.  But use more muted colors than true Maize and Blue.  Here's the dorky father in me coming out:  Studies say that softer colors tend to promote brain growth (or something like that).  Have her focus on doing whatever it takes to make those little rascals smart enough to blow the socks of the Michigan admissions people 18 years from now.  That way, the family will all get tickets easier!

I recently became a grandfather.  The first piece of clothing my grandson wore was a Michigan cap.  He is now nine months old and wore a maize outfit for every Michigan game this past year.  It is important to raise kids right.

As others have suggested, a faux painter can paint any design you want in any color combination and often without breaking the bank.  You might also check online and see how others have decorated bedrooms using motifs from other universities just to give you some ideas.

A creatively written Hello post to be framed and hung in the room? 

If this scenarion doesn't make a Blockhams comic strip, Im going to be very disappointed.

My sugggestion would be make your own wall paper.

along the lines of some of these suggestions, for instance, LSA had good ideas as did some others.  not that tough.  try a neutral wall color with a maize/blue double strip all arond the top of the room, say a foot from the ceiling.   we hung skins (bear, deer, etc) in the boys' room and have some of my old football helmets as props.   works well.  

make a moblie of winged helmets for each of the lads.

and make sure you buy them 'buckeye' diapers, so they'll know from birth the correct protocol for ohio.
