The Paint

OK, this one is Kristin's room. The color is washed out a little, but you get the idea. The other stuff in the room is is some trim for the window on a table and a drywall tool to lift drywall to the ceiling. That just gives you an idea of the stuff in the room. There is a shadow on the wall from the trim. Kristin is really excited about this color. She will have a white daybed centered on that wall. Her bedspread is a shiney pink with butterflies on it. The other wall color is a light yellow. It is the color of most of the house.
Here is Brent's room. The light wall was supposed to be lighter than this, but the blues ended up not matching, so I added some of the dark to the light and we got lucky that it worked. They match now. The trim will be white and his bed and desk are oak color. He really likes dark colors, so we comprimised with one dark wall and 3 light walls. We really like that the windows are big downstairs, so it doesn't feel like a dark basement.

Here is Tyler's room. The green is washed out a bit. It is really a strong green. But, it matches the green planet in his bedspread perfectly! The bedspread has a black backround with different colored planets on it. His bed and bookcase and table are black. His dresser will be in the closet. So will the other kid's.
Rebekah's room will be upstairs in the boy's current bedroom. I haven't decided what I am going to do in there. She will have the bedspreads that Kristin and she used to have--white with colors like periwinkle, yellow and mint green on it. She has a white bed with a trundle--for visitors! Brent and Kristin will also have trundles. We are still working on Tyler's set up for that. It is all going to be so great when it gets done! The guy who is installing our doors is coming on Monday! Hurray! We still need to order trim. That is the next step and will probably happen this weekend when we pick up the doors. We have to take two trip to fit them in the van, so I am picking some up tomorrow when I take Brent to get a retainer replaced (I love the Orthodonist, but 3 times in a week's time is too much!! the other two times were for Kristin. She got her braces put on on Thursday and there was a wire left too long so we had to go back on Friday. Yeesh!)
Anyway, that is all for now. Coming soon...Kristin's Jean Bag!!

They are on their way

I have pictures on my computer--room colors. Since my arms are so weak, it hurts to type, I will put the time in on another day. This is the commercial to advertise the big show coming soon!
