The Babies Room

Anyone reading this, has probably already figured out, that projects in our house don't get done in one weekend. They take many weekends to complete. This weekend, I had a goal, to finish the painting in the Baby's Room.

I started Saturday morning with getting the tape on the wall for the stripe pattern. I drew up all sorts of patterns, and this is the one we landed on, a little more simple than I originally thought it would be, but it worked out pretty good, and I think we are both happy with it. Once the tape was on, it was time to start painting. And I am incredibly slow at painting.


But many hours later, the first coat of both colors was on the walls.


Today started much like Saturday did, with a paint brush in my hand. But, after a few more hours of painting, I had the second and final coat on the walls for both colors, and the blue tape could come down. We are happy with the results. I need to let it dry for a few days, then go back and touch up a few spots on the white. Then the painting portion of the project will be over, and I can start to work on the shelves and the closet.
