We have spent the last couple of weeks painting, moving, cleaning out, and rearranging the boys' bedrooms. My goal was to have everything done in one week, but by the time we got everything cleaned up and put on the finishing touches it actually took two.
What used to be the office/guest room/Uncle Todd's room is now Zack's room. The new wall color is "hazy skies", a blue-gray. We hung 3 framed posters (Toy Story 3, Manchester United, and Messi), put up a baseball shelf for his sports trophies, and organized all his books on a the bookshelf we made under his loft bed. Nick moved into what was Zack's room/the play room. We also painted it "hazy skies". He got 3 new posters - Mario Kart Wii, Star Wars, and a classic Disney. He organized his Legos in the cubes of the bookshelf that we put horizontally next to his bed. It will be a great room for him as he approaches the teen years. Michael and Luke got what was the room Michael shared. Michael wanted a jungle room, so we painted the bottom half a darker brown ("Toffee Bar") and the top half a tan ("Kenya") and put up removable, repositionable wall decals of jungle animals. We put the full size bed from the guest room under Michael's loft bed. He loves it since he can make a fort under his bed.
I am really happy with the paint colors and overall results. It feels great to have everything decluttered and organized (at least for now). And we needed to get it done before soccer season starts as we will have 3 kids playing on 3 different teams. It was exhausting painting and moving 3 rooms of furniture, but I'm so glad it is done.
they look great!
