this room is starting to bug...















we wanted to re-do bryson's room/guest room as both kid-friendly and guest friendly. after tearing down the wallpaper, which also matched the curtains, which also matched the bedspread...we painted the walls my favorite color - they are different shades, but that doesn't show up too well in pictures...
this room has been my procrastinating nightmare. i have so many projects still unfinsihed, but tend to complete them piecemeal on weekends like these where i had some free time. it took me 2 weeks to do the curtains and then another month for the pillows and things are slowly getting done, although i am not sure if i will ever get to painting the dresser now that the paints are who knows where. i planned on covering bryson's chair (formerly a thomas the engine chair from devon and ruthie that has seen better days) but my first attempt happened around 12:00 a.m. one late night and after spending an hour trying to piece and sew it together it was a disaster. i still think it turned out awfully sloppy, but after 3 attempts to fix it - i am living with it and bryson LOVES it so that is what matters right?
