A Little Bit of Fun

So now that we are "done" with the living/dining room, we have moved onto the girls room.  See we only have 2 bedrooms upstairs (a choice I will never make again) and so to get James into his own room we had to do a little re-arranging.  Richard and I are moving downstairs, the girls are moving into our old room, and James will get the girls old room.  We already painted the girls room blue when we moved in (lucky choice on our part) so it works perfect for James.  Our room on the other hand was green, a dark, dark green, so it needed a little face lift :).  I can't wait to get it all done (James "NEEDS" his own room).  Luckily there aren't any huge changes being made, and it is mostly just cosmetic.  I did tear out the wasted space above the closet to make a decorative shelf (unbeknown to Richard, who then had to tag along -- hey that is the only way I get exactly what I want).  The room has 3 closets -- well technically two; one big enough walk in closet it could be a bathroom, and one closet that looks like two from the outside, but actually connects inside.  We are going to rip out the wall and door covering the big walk in closet and make it a part of the room.  So again not to many big changes.  Richard wants to build a cool play house for the girls inside the walk in closet space and then as they get older we can take it out and it can be an area for their "homework desks".  I'm so excited about decorating the girls room and have all the colors picked out.  The base wall color will be a really light tan.  Then I will accent with a dark pink, light pink, and dark brown.  I got so excited that I finally came up with an idea for the girls dresser, which has needed to be refinished.  The dresser got me thinking up all sorts of cool ideas for decor and I can't wait to get started , so I didn't!!

I just love it!!!
