So you know I LOVE change.
Maybe too much change? My husband LOVES it too...um...not so much!
I am working on our bedroom yet, once again. It really wasn't terrible to start with...
(You can see where I started to paint the armoir turquoise and then realized I wanted a before shot.)
These pictures were taken...oh, I would say...last summer??? Maybe August of 2012??
Black and white...kind of done with that.

This paint job is what started the whole room mess makeover.
Our bedding didn't match (you know my husband pointed that out of course...kidding!)

So, it evolved into this...my turquoise/cowgirl/hippie kind of room.
I picked out the darkest, deepest chocolate-y grey color for the walls, traded a friend a furniture piece I had for her Pottery Barn bedding (hardly used) and some yard sale finds.
You can read the whole post on my Mini Room Makeover on the Cheap HERE .
So...what am I up to now with this room...well, here is a little teaser

My armoir is now a creamy white (I really can't help myself with paint and a brush)...with the turquoise and black peeking through.
I LOVE it!
I need to FINISH it...today! (Hopefully) I hope to have some after pictures for you next week.
The white bedding is in the washer...I am trying to figure out what color of pillow covers I want to sew to toss on our bed (my husband LOVES the millions of pillows on the bed..haha.)
I hope you have a great day...we are headed to Natalie's Preschool Easter Picnic...so sweet.
Don't forget about the Creative Linky Party going on right now co-hosted by Stacey of and me!! Here is the link for the post with the party...
Love & Junk~
