Guest Picks: Construction Chic
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}My son is a construction vehicle fiend. If it digs, drags, pushes or destroys, then it's for him. And from what I hear, he's not alone. These mighty machines seem to be adored by little (and big) guys almost universally. In an effort to give the kids what they want, but still maintain a sense of style, I've rounded up 20 finds to help add some industrial chic to your child's space. By Stephanie Morgan for <a href="http://www.houzz.com/">Houzz.com</a> <b>"Lunch Atop a Skyscraper" Mounted Print by Mike Stimpson - $76.00</b> This is such a cool take on the famous 1932 photograph taken by Charles Ebbets, and you can't go wrong with LEGO decor. Do kids ever really outgrow them? <a href="http://www.houzz.com/photos/kitchen">MORE: Browse inspiring kitchen designs</a> (RedBubble)
<b>Personalised Construction Toy Letter Art by Berties - GBP 53.75</b> Monograms are a great way to personalize a kid's space. This 3D construction version is made of a gravel-textured surface with toy diggers, dumper trucks and even workmen. My favorite parts are the muddy tracks leading off the print and onto the mat board — almost like the machines have been busy working while your child slumbered. <a href="http://www.houzz.com">MORE: Browse 220,000+ inspiring home design photos</a> (Not on the High Street)
<b>Bulldozer Tractor Construction Vinyl Wall Decal by DecoMOD Walls - $16.00</b> The large scale and modern lines of this wall decal make for a versatile focal point the kids won't quickly outgrow. Plus it's available in several colors and can be personalized with a child's name or personal message. <a href="http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/827330/list/Guest-Picks--Construction-Chic">MORE: See all 20 products and sources</a> (Etsy)
<b>Crane and Trucks Vinyl Decal Sticker by DecoMOD Walls - $42.00</b> This is another decal from DecoMOD Walls, equally as lovely as the Bulldozer Tractor. Overlapping the machines and crane gives the scene a nice level of dimension. <a href="http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/698745/list/50-Great-Gifts-Under--50">MORE: 50 Great Gifts Under $50</a> (Etsy)
<b>Digger with Dots on Pink Wall Art - $58.00</b> Who says trucks are just for boys? With the photographed digger juxtaposed against a bright pop of pink, this print has something for all your littles — regardless of gender. It's a perfect pick for the playroom. <a href="http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/827330/list/Guest-Picks--Construction-Chic">MORE: See all 20 products and sources</a> (numsi)
