Not sure if this is the right place for this, but I thought it might fit here.
We are giving our oldest boy who will be 10 this summer, his own bedroom. It is his sisters room and she has left home. The room is a very pretty green, but she never finished the borders of the room, so we are going to paint those a dark green, as I happen to have that on hand.
He has recently become very fascinated with Mass and the Church. I want to either paint a quote up on his wall, or have it made into some artwork and framed and put up on the wall.
So, what would you quote that would be inspirational to a pre-teen boy?
Ideas?
Jill

I recently bought Catholic posters for my boys' room. Posters just seemed more kid friendly than framed artwork..

I got them at catholictothemax.com lots of choices but we mostly went with Saints posters... St. Hubert, St. George, St. Michael

I went ahead and moved this to our homekeeping forum. I think it will better fit with the past discussions there about home decorating.

Thank you for moving it, I was not really sure where to put it...
I will take a look at that website in a bit. I am in a between breather with painting. Almost there.. But I am starving.
