Painting a bedroom, or Dear God, I think I’m going to die

September 9, 2012

I’ve spent all weekend prepping and painting Tomcat’s bedroom. We’ve lived here three years now and we’ve painted Tadpole’s room and Cricket and Thumper’s room (they share), but we hadn’t done Tomcat’s. We haven’t painted our room yet, either, but it’s gonna wait a while longer yet. Anyway, his room is gonna rock when it’s done. Meanwhile, I forgot how much painting sucked. We ran out of paint, so while we’re waiting for the first coat to dry, Seymour took Tomcat and Tadpole to town to buy supplies and I put Cricket and Thumper down for naps. Time to relax!

P.S. Stay tuned – Friday’s photo post will feature the before and after pictures. 🙂

Blue and white hopefully. They’re the only colours that suit a bedroom. Or is that just me?

  No, actually his room is going to be blue! White for the ceiling, but the walls are a deep blue. It’s his favorite color and it goes well with his Star Wars nightlight.
