New Bedroom!
Well, not exactly, but it's at least a new color - Beach Glass! This is what the bedroom looked like before the painting...white walls, and a nice little water stain that you probably can't see in this picture:
And here's the after (note, though, that Gina hasn't had a chance to fix the curtains. she didn't want anybody to see them this way, but I'm quick with the camera =) )
This was Gina's first painting experience, and she was very nervous about it. She had never used a roller before, and was convinced that we needed to put newspaper over the *entire* floor (not just by the walls) and also over all the furniture in the room (plan A was to move all of the furniture out of the room....I put the kibash on that one). She was also convinced that she was going to get paint in her hair. I tried to explain to her that the physics of the whole thing made it almost impossible that she would get paint in her hair. Well.....
