| It’s so much easier when you don’t have to paint around furniture. Oh, well! |
We (and the horses!) are all settled in to our lovely new home so the first item (after the fencing) on our agenda was to paint the bedrooms. I know most people suggest taking care of the main floor first when moving into a fixer-upper. However, I would politely disagree. Painting the bedrooms first creates a sort of oasis in the midst of a home torn apart, dirtied and cluttered with tools while it’s being repaired. Trust me, I’m speaking from experience.

| Getting started by Kilzing it all! |
So, when I asked Evelyn and Claire what color they’d like their room, they simultaneously agreed:
 |
| The finishing touches on the trim! |
There are a lot of pink naysayers in the world and generally, I am not too keen on the color splashed across an entire room but you should have seen the look on the girls’ faces when I finished.
 |
| The neutral walls… |
Granted, the pink is a bit toned down and I only did one wall as an accent but I think it gives the room a nice feminine touch without going over the top. And I hid a little pink in the closet too when the doors are open, just for fun.
What do you think? Are you a pink naysayer or are you brave enough to let your children pick their own colors?
