This is the project my mom and I have been working on during the past week--painting the nursery! It was really fun to have my mom here to share in the excitement. During the first few days of her stay, we had a really hard time choosing what bedding we wanted and eventually decided that Bart and I would rather have an interesting room than just some cheesy animal print bedding, so we went with painting the wall argyle and looking for plain white bedding. All four walls were painted a light gray, and then we chose the two colors in the argyle pattern based on inspiration from this painting we got in Philadelphia (the lighting is a little off and if you can't tell what the painting is, it's a parent holding a child--TENDER!)
And so the taping began...
We need to put in the dotted/dashed line that will cross the diamonds, but we're still trying to figure out how to make a stencil that won't mess up what we've already done. We're pretty excited about the way it turned out so far!
Ok crazies, that looks awesome!!! I cannot believe you tapped all of that. That is why you are crazy. But it looks great. I think you may need to send me that color swatches or the names of the colors you used. I feel some inspiration coming on...
Wow! What a fun room, it looks incredible. I love the colors, it turned out really nice.
Hooray! You posted pictures of your house! I'm so excited. The baby's room looks like a great "pad." And that wall! Wow. It looks FANTASTIC! Way to go... that's a lot of work. He'll love it. :)
That is some serious skill! I can't believe all the hours that must have taken. Hopefully little man doesn't like it so much he adds his own "artwork" to is someday! :)
That's freakin' awesome. I loves me some argyle, but I never woulda thought of painting a wall argyle. Excellent work.
