Today hubby got up and went to work as usual; me and “Lydia” slept in. I didn’t get up until 9 and she got up at 8:30. We met hubby for lunch and then headed to the house. We actually got a lot done for such a late start.
When we got to the house, guy one had already put polyurethane on the kitchen and master bedroom.
I have decided that bedroom number one (the smaller of the two is going to be stripped in two different colors of pink like the Victoria’s Secret bag. (Princess pink and fairytale pink). J Spare bedroom number 2 is going to be the Harley room (Orange and grey with diamond plated chair rail).

We got started on spare bedroom number one. We put the base coat on it and it was VERY Pink! Pepto pink!
I decided to use that as a secondary color and pick out a liter pink to paint the other stripes. We were going to get started on the Harley room but I also changed my mind about the color in there. I was planning on using the grey we used in the man cave but decided it wasn’t dark enough so we headed to Lowes to have them dye the paint for yet a third time!
When we got to Lowes, I picked out a lighter shade of pink for bedroom number 1 also. We got our two gallons of paint and headed back to the house.
We got both bedrooms painted. It was a task to get both of them painted in one day. Especially since we didn’t start until after lunch and the ceilings in the Harley room are 15 foot high.
Hubby got there just in time to help us cut in the paint in the Harley room. We finished painting the Harley room and headed home to mother n laws for THE BEST chili I have EVER had! WOW! It was awesome!
“Lydia” is headed back home to Dothan, Al. She was a great help this weekend! We got so much done; so much that I would not have been able to do myself. Not to mention I got to have some girl time also.
I am tired, very tired. Tomorrow the guys will sand the floors and put a second coat of poly on them. The house is all coming together so nicely!
I have to say, I am so very proud of my hubby! Not only has he trusted me to decorate our home the way I wanted, but he has also agreed to let me try to create a “girlie” room and a Harley room. He is THE hardest working man I have ever met in my life! Working the marina from early morning until right before the sun goes down and then heading to the house to complete our home. He is the best! I cannot wait till we get our babies out of the kennel, get our furniture moved in and turn this house into a home!
It looks great!!! You are going to have to make the VS room a workout room cause I don't ever see a man sleeping in that room unless it has VS posters up...LOL
ReplyDeletelol that color was suppose to be the lighter stripes but when I put it on the wall, I was like "OH NO!" lol Had to go to Lowes to get a light color lol I told Stacey that everything is coming together so well and that I have come a long way from sheets over the windows lol
