Avery's Room

Okay so before I went back to work we did strip the wallpaper in Avery's room, and we did paint the top layer of paint and also the ceiling. But that's where we're still at... I packed up her closet...a lot of stuff in there. Not all bought by us, Grandparents, Great Grandparents, cousins, Aunts & Uncles, and friends have also contributed to the amount of things she has in her closet. I had to pack up her clothes, and put a drop cloth in the front of her closet so nothing would be damaged in the transformation.

Painting her room was liberating!!! Another day of progress. We plan on putting wainscoting on the bottom of the wall, in a light green. Then we are going to stripe her walls in a light pink (the color is called tutu-how appropriate), and light green, and the off white color that is already on there with a thin brown stripe also. We are still fooling with the widths of the stripes. We've been at a little bit of a stand still since I've been back to work, plus our weekends have been filled up with different events lately.

So below are some pictures of the start of Avery's room...we'll post more when we make a little more progress.

Take care & love to all,
