Painting Lauren's Room

Lauren has been bugging us for months to paint her room. Finally I told her that if she could keep her room cleaned up for a month, we'd paint over Christmas break. Unfortunately, she did a good job, so we painted today. The color choice was a battle between Dad and Lauren, but finally they both gave a little and compromised on "early green tomato." Believe it or not, Lauren wanted it even brighter/darker. We didn't paint the ceiling or trim, so it isn't completely overwhelming. Here are the results: (notice the cute peace sign bedding she got for Christmas.)Before: Prepped for painting:Lauren did about 50% of the painting. She did a great job and worked hard.After:We haven't hung the curtains or finished putting up her "decor," but the main stuff is in there. I think it turned out cute and she loves it.

I look forward to the day that my girls can have freedom of choice in their bedroom colors. Good for Lauren in having such great taste.

Now that I see the whole bedroom done, I really like it. It looks cute with her bed set.
