Tony and I had been talking about repainting Megan's room ever since the boys moved down stairs.
We weren't sure if we wanted to go really "girly" or something more neutral. I have always like the color yellow and we even talked about painting the room yellow when we were pregnant with Tyler but decided to keep it blue because it was already blue so that was the easiest.
Tony picked up a bunch of yellow paint samples and we decided on "Vanilla Milkshake." It is a really creamy light yellow and we both really like it.
We picked up a Minnie Mouse wall stickers set from Costco to help decorate her room after we painted it the "Vanilla Milkshake."
Tony painted the room Saturday after doing all the batch work and all the taping. I decided that painting isn't the hard part it is all the prep work that sucks.
On Sunday after the paint was all dry we moved back Megan's bed, dresser, and book shelf. We also put back up the shelves and then started putting up the Minnie stickers. They are so cute and their were so many of them that came in the set. Megan was so excited. She kept saying "Minnie" while we were putting up the stickers. Her and the boys were disappointed that I didn't let them help put up the stickers. I put most the stickers up high enough that the kids can't peel them off.
We are still looking for the right comforter to go on Megan's bed. For now we are using a quilt that my mom made her when she was born and a blanket our neighbor made.
I would still like to repaint the base boards and the doors...and I guess we should probably paint the inside of the blue closet either white or "Vanilla Milkshake." Those projects are for another day.
