When it comes to decorating rooms for young girls, most people think of pink and princesses. The only princess on Redditor carpenter75’s mind was Princess Peach. Carpenter75 invested 60 hours of painting time and a whole lot of ingenuity into creating a Mario-themed room for a daughter who requested it.
The room’s blue walls are covered in bricks, Mario and Bowser vinyl decals, Mario throw pillows, and 3D question-mark boxes. The high score on the wall is the 13-year-old’s birthday.
The daughter doesn’t actually play a wide variety of video games, but she does have a special love for Super Mario on NES. “I think she, like me, likes the simplicity of the old games,” writes carpenter75.

Carpenter75 estimates that the whole project cost around $700, including the paint, tons of masking tape, decals, and Mario-themed bedding.
