Even though we were nearly done, I could hardly wait to show everyone the new bedroom progress in my last post. All we had left to do was to paint and install the trim and clean everything up. And that was done in two days. We didn't go crazy on the trim like we did in the dungeon, which took 3 coats of stain and then polyurethane to top it off. The bedroom trim wasn't even real wood, was purchased already primed and only needed to be cut and painted twice. But it looks great. I simply love the crispness of the painted wainscoting and the pop of the orange.
Here is what the bedroom looked like on this year's first day of school, back when it was still our school room.
And here is that same corner now as Noah and Samuel's new bedroom!
I wanted to avoid stacking the beds but there wasn't enough room. I found Samuel's quilt on ebay and really like it - it's a safari theme.
Here's a better shot of the orange and white trim. I just love it.
The painted white doors look great too.
One of the last things we needed to complete was to install the closet. Terry decided to buy this closet organizer instead of just a rod. It looks so great. And this way Samuel can still reach his clothes and Noah can keep his treasures up high away from destroyer baby. Terry kept a shelf on the left side and added one on the right side after he covered the old wet bar's plumbing.
Samuel quite enjoys having his big boy bed. And check out those sheets I scored at Herbergers! How appropriate are those little monsters?!
