A PROUD mum has revealed how she created an incredible Lion King-themed bedroom for her Disney-obsessed son using bargains from eBay and Asda.
Simone Seth, 33, from Coventry, raided Asda, IKEA and the Disney store to make her three-year-old son Declan the bedroom of his dreams – complete with a mural and a personalised sticker of his name above the bed.
Sharing photos of her hard work on the Facebook group DIY On a Budget, the mum-of-two wrote: "My little boys new Lion King bedroom!
"A bit different to the usual grey and white that’s become the in thing…"
Three-year-old Declan has loved Lion King ever since his mum gave him a Simba cuddly toy when he was born prematurely at 29 weeks.
The lucky little boy now has his own Lion King mural in his room complete with all the characters (which his mum bagged for £50 on eBay) and Simba bedding from ASDA.
All the furniture in Declan's Disney dream of a bedroom is from IKEA and his impressive collection of Lion King toys have been picked up from the Disney Store over the years.
Simone also bagged the personalised Lion King-sticker of Declan's name above his bed for just £10 on eBay too.
Speaking to Fabulous Digital about how she created the room, Simone revealed she'd spent £200 on the revamp in total.
She said: "He’s been a lion king fan since being a baby and loved going to Florida last Christmas and meeting the characters.
"Declan was born premature at 29 weeks and he always had the Simba teddy pictures in his incubator next to him."
But the mum hasn't stopped with Declan's Lion King-dom – she's also making her two-year-old son Dawson a Dumbo-themed bedroom too.
She joked: "They're both Disney-mad. Declan absolutely loves it – he tells everyone he meets about his lion king bedroom and his big boy bed!"
Since she shared it on the Facebook group earlier this week, Simone's post has been "liked" by over 1,500 users who were desperate to know how she'd put it all together.
One replied: "Oh my goodness. My son has autism and literally sings The Circle of Life 30 times a day. He would love this room."
Another raved: "I would have LOVED this when I was little (I'm lying, I'd love this now…" Us too.
