Bedroom Painting

After completing painting the kitchen, the next task to complete was painting my bedroom. I have been wanting to repaint it for a while because I did not like the way one of the colors turned out the last time I repainted my room. So, I kept one color (the purple) and changed the other color (the pink) to a cream color. It took my a while to prepare my walls with taking down my pictures and washing my walls. I took everything out of my bedroom a week early so I could do prep work, and ended up sleeping in the living room which I did not mind. I had decided that I wanted to repaint by myself after gaining a new confidence in my painting skills while painting the kitchen. I started earlier this week and started with the purple first and eased my way to the cream color finally finishing on Friday. I was amazed at how well everything turned out and I was pretty proud of myself that I could do that great of a job and I had so much fun doing it. I had set a goal for myself that I wanted to be back in my room for today (Saturday) and met that goal. After finishing Friday I moved half my stuff back in my room that night and I wanted to spend one more night in the living room to give my room a chance to air out. Today my mom helped me hang my pictures back up and move my bed back in.

My two original colors
My two new colors. Much better I think :)
