Bedroom redo is done!

I told you last week that I was taking a few vacation days and was working on repainting our bedroom. It's done and here are the pictures to show you the before and after.

This is what things looked like before,  I forgot to take a picture until I had taken down the pictures and the window toppers, but you can see the green paint, lovely border and the comforter.

 

It was not an easy task taking down that border.  As you can see, it came off in little pieces.  I hear wallpaper is coming back into style, but I sure hope I don't succumb to it again.  I always have a terrible time taking it off.

 

Ready to paint - border is down, walls are washed and the furniture is moved.

I certainly would never make it as a professional painter.  I don't have the patience for it.  Heather was nice and helped me out!

 

 

Here is the finished room.  The wall behind the bed is painted a light brown, and the other walls are blue.  I got a new comforter set, blinds and curtains.  I still have some things to hang on the walls and I need to find something to put on the wall over the bed.

And here's the other corner.  Bob is working on a mirror to hang over the dresser.  It looks and feels fresh and updated - and I'm glad it's done!
