Zoe has been anxious to re-paint her room for the last couple of months. Since we've been busy with other house projects, hers went on the wait list. She woke up late in the morning after a very long weekend of rehearsal, and asked if we could do it today. We decided to start at 11:00, went to the store to pick out paint, picked up Lacey on the way home, and we went to work!
These girls worked hard. They did all the rolling, and I did all the brush work at the ceiling and baseboards.
She wanted to get rid of the bright stripes, and have one neutral solid. After a long afternoon, the painting was done. We took a break for dinner, and the girls finished up some chemistry homework together, and we started putting the room back together.
She had found a beautiful tapestry online, so we got that up, hung some lights around the border, and she put up a bunch of pictures throughout. It turned out great, and exactly how she wanted it.
It was a long day of work, but by 10pm, we were done!
As she reminded me, this will probably be the last time we re-do her room before she leaves for college...sniff, sniff. I don't even want to think about it! We worked hard, but we actually had a lot of fun and shared a ton of laughs all day! Another project crossed off the list!
