Girls' Bedrooms -- Before & After

I need to get ready for my library class today, but in the meantime, I thought I would quickly post some before & after photos of my girls' bedrooms. Whew! Painting is exhausting. The prep work takes so long! I know why people hire painters! Anyway, I'm glad their rooms are done, and they LOVE them!

Here's some before and after shots of Emily's room.





In the photo above, you can see the desk that my husband made for Emily. Very cool!
Here are some shots of Jessica's room.




I'll try to get some photos posted tomorrow of their rooms with ALL of their furniture in there. They are totally in love with their new spaces, AND their rooms were rearranged, and they love that too! I just love my girls, and it's so fun to see them so excited about their bedrooms! Love it!
Have a great day, and thanks for stopping by!

I love those colors!! Great job in painting! I agree with the hiring of painters. I want my living room re-painted but the pain it took for me to paint my Emily's room.....I will definitely hire someone.

Such pretty colours. I hear you on the prep work. I used to paint a LOT. It's tiring work. You got fabulous results though! How fun for your girls! Can't wait to see the furniture photos, :0)
