Bedroom!

So...painting the bedroom. This is what I've been doing for the last month. The reason it took that long is that as usual I wanted something elaborate and detail oriented. BUT. I finished, and I am SO proud of how it looks that I could gag. Tonight I'm touching up the last little details where the stencils pulled up paint edges, and moving my bookshelves in. Or alternately sitting in the completely empty room and grinning.

Obligatory before shot

The smallest wall by the window I did in all flowers.

Bunny and birch trees along my longest wall

This will be where the bookshelves go so I didn't do a lot of detail.

Little details I spent lots of time obsessing over.

Notes:

The room is five sided- like a square with a corner chopped off next to where the windows are. The diagonal wall is the short wall with the flower details.

Interestingly enough the blue (which is a little more turquoisey than these shots) makes the room seem both bigger and brighter, which I always thought was what white was supposed to do, but the white room maybe just makes things blander and therefore fades to a middle ground. I was worried it might be dark after I painted, but I think it reflects more light. If that's possible?

Moral: Anything I didn't do last month that I should have...this is why.
