The house has 4 bedrooms, two upstairs and two downstairs. We decided very early on that the girls would have the upstairs bedrooms as that is all the upstairs consists of and it would be like their domain. The walls up here need a fair bit of work, they have taken rather a bashing with what look like kung fu kicks to the walls, not sure what went on up here and don't really want to ponder that too much but there were locks on all of the doors!
The girls get to decide room colour, Rachelle has gone for pink with a darker feature wall, Hayley is still to decide on her colour scheme but is leaning towards pink as well, only not the pink Rachelle has!
So....while Rachelle was away in the Wairarapa for the weekend I threw the first lot of pink up on her wall, it was quite a contrast after being used to the walls being undercoat white! I knew she would love it though and she did :)
The wardrobe door is to replaced, this was one of the original doors, the louvre doors replacing these are still sitting in the garage waiting for me to paint them...haha....might get onto that this weekend....might not...
While we love the pink, it was clear that to do all of the walls in this colour would be a bit much!!! So we threw some of it in with some white paint and painted the rest of the walls. Rachelle is really pleased witht the result and the room looks good, hers so far is the only one done, everyone else is still living with that beautiful undercoat white. Well, except for the spare room (Brents computer room) which hasn't been touched at all apart from ripping up that old worn and ripped carpet that was in there.
So there we have it, all that needs doing in Rachelles room now is the windows painted (and fixed!) and the wardrobe door going on but that is for another day!
