There were 5 under one roof and now there are 4. One gets a room of his own again, finally! And another gets a room of his own for the first time ever.
But first, rooms have to get dumped, and walls painted...because she wants something different than this blue;
and he wants something different than pink and swirls...
With the possibility of a move in the not so distant future, we have to think about how many times we want to paint. So after a week of various paint samples taped to walls they chose their favorite white! (There are a lot of whites out there and some don't look too white-like in various light.)
My favorite photos...
When all was mostly done and tape was removed there was a little bit of touch up that needed to be done. The teens got out the little paint brushes. I couldn't help but think how awful it would have been to paint the two rooms with such a little brush. The giggles happened. Things are yet to still be finished. This has been a two month process. Purging, emptying and moving. One more room to still paint. It is amazing how much can be unearthed and decluttered when the bedroom shuffle happens! It definitely would have been better timed in the summer. Squeezing in between school and our crazy schedule has been a challenge. Hopefully, we can take some "after" pictures soon.
