Finally!! After being gone in Chicago last week and taking a few days off from chores in general, I got the guest bedroom painted! Yay!!
Now when I started on this room, I figured it would be super simple. Get a bucket of paint and start painting away!! Right?!
WRONG!
First off the trim was all dark. This meant I needed to sand it all and prime it, the I had to put not 1, not 2, not 3.......but FOUR coats of paint on the trim.
For the trim I used Olympic Semi Gloss in Crumb Cookie from Lowes.
Now after all the trim was done I started on the wall. I knew that I wanted to do two different tones. So I grabbed some tan paint from upstairs (also Olympic) and was about to start painting away. Until I noticed that the previous owners did not do a good job of tearing off the previous wall paper.
GOODIE!!! :)
Needless to say, this took a lot longer than I initially anticipated.
But I am happy with how it came out and can NOT wait to get this room done.
So here is the room before:
and After:
Here is the bed. I am looking at different options for bedding!! :)
And again the wonderful closet doors. I promise I will finally paint them but they are just so hard to do!! Actually they are just too time consuming! :)
And yes, that is an ancient desk top computer!!! I told Robbie I wanted to move it out of this room and put it upstairs but he wants it in there.
Cant wait to show you the end table for the bed!
