The Bedroom Redo Redo

While I was in Michigan, my husband was a handy guy and painted our bedroom.  He is a super great husband because this is actually the second time that he's painted the same room.

When we first moved in the back wall was a really, really dark brown.  It looked nice with the previous owner's decor, but it really was not our style.


Mr. Paws was wishing we would paint in there.


So Michael did paint the room.  We both agreed on the color of blue, and then I left for the weekend while he painted. 


It was definitely an improvement from the brown, but it was just a little too blue.  You can't see it in the pictures but the ceiling was also painted blue.  It felt very closed in a lot of the time, especially later in the day.  And the color, as pretty as it is, didn't quite jive with the rest of the house.  It was supposed to feel serene and peaceful, and instead it felt like living in an aquarium.   


I was really happy with the new curtains, though.  So that was a step forward. 


So, Michael painted the bedroom again and I LOVE IT!  He did the walls the same color as our daughter's nursery and painted the back a wall a more slate grey blue.


It is so refreshing.  I'm so happy (finally) with the way it looks.  What a good husband to give it a second go.


Now I just need to hang some fun things on the wall and make a new quilt for the bed. Yay for the bedroom redo redo.
