When we built our house 6 years ago (wow, has it been that long already?), we had Lauryn's room painted lime green. It sounded cute at the time, when she was only 6 years old! But I still remember the first day we walked in after the painting was done & I about died! It was LIME GREEN bright! So for 6 years, we have been talking about re-doing her room. Well, we finally got to it! What a project this has been (a good months worth). It started by pulling out some furniture she no longer wanted, cleaning closets, throwing 2-3 garbage bags full of junk, giving clothes & toys away, packing up keepsakes, & finally painting. I have to say I was surprised when Lauryn chose purple as her new color. She went through a stage where purple & pink were not cool. But here we are today, with a beautiful bedroom!
Here's the start of our process, moving everything away from the walls to paint
Going through all her stuff & making piles to throw, give away, pack up, keep...
One wall finished
Another wall finished
And finally just this week I finished painting the bay window area. No more lime green!!!
