Twins room

We started off the new year redecorating the twins bedroom-to-be. They are currently still in the nursery but wanted to move them to the biggest bedroom since they will be sharing a room. I usually count on a painting project like this to take all week....2 days to tape and 3 to paint. Well Rod was home and helped and we did this in one day!! it took Rod 15 minutes to tape! And we just painted one wall so that didn't take long. I'm happy with the color, I'm so indecisive when it comes to picking colors. I was tired of blue and wanted to pick some other color. So i went with Red. Rod didn't want anything Bold and most reds are..so i picked a calmer red, hoping it wouldn't look pink!! i'm happy with it. It sure gives the room a different look. The twins are proud and happy with the airplane theme. We haven't moved them in yet, but will sometime in the near future.
Before: After: Still have a valance and little extras to add, but the main part is done....
Above each of their beds is an airplane wall sticker with their name on it. In case they forget which bed is theirs!And we also did other airplane and cloud stickers above their beds.

Nice to get that marked off the "before baby" list!!! Other items on the list are..... *Eye Doctor *Defrost freezer *Stock up at Sharp Shopper *Get twins circumsized (long story) *paint baby's room *wash windows (this takes me forever!)...etc......kinda a random list but i'd like to get that all done before the baby arrives (which isn't supposed to be until April so there's time).

Happy New Year!
