This probably isn't too exciting to you guys, but I am so happy the painting is done! Can you tell I don't procrastinate?? Haha.
I didn't do this all yesterday....I had half the room done - my dad and Justin built the shelf around the room about 1.5 months ago, and I painted it white and the bottom half of the room white. Since then we were just waiting to find out boy/girl!
I did the blue yesterday, and the glaze stripes (WHAT A PAIN). And then I painted the 'Sweet Dreams' above the crib. I love that.
We get the rest of the furniture on the 26th! I can't wait!

It looks great Cara! We did royal blue with the glaze stripes in our bedroom- and you're right, they are a pain. But they look awesome!

I LOVE painting, but those stipes are awful, just measuring over and over and getting them level, etc. UGH. And talk about wasting tape!!
I did a leather look in our dining room - it's my favorite room...and it was so much easier than stripes even though it doesn't look like it!

BTW - I love your new pic - you look gorgeous!!
That shelf - my dad built one for me when I was a little girl, in my room...and I LOVED it because I could put all my little collections on it and pictures and stuff. It only sticks out from the wall about 3 inches, and it's all sanded in a neat design around the edges (can't really tell from the picture).
Anyways, I love it! Thanks for the compliment!

The stripes are so cool---and what beautiful colors!
Did you use the same color, just in different sheens? Or is it 2 different colors? My neice is wanting to do this in her room, and she doesn't know how.
