Colt's Nursery-Part 1

A couple of weeks ago, okay maybe like a month ago, my cousin Val called me up for my mad painting skillz. I don't think she knew what she was getting into. I told her I was living vicariously through her since who knows when we will finally have a baby. She's due with baby # 3 in mid September.

My guess is he'll be here at the end of August and she'll love me for saying that.

Anyway, back to the nursery. She already knew exactly what she wanted to do she just needed help doing it!

Here is the room before-
See? Nice and boring.

Here is the room during-
Wait! I have to pause here and tell you that the very first thing I did was screw up. Imagine that there is a line dividing the room in half horizontally. Well there was an actual line drawn there and I still messed it up. Val wanted yellow on top and blue on bottom. One guess as to who painted that yellow there on the bottom half. Yep, first thing I did. Thank goodness she was talking to/watching me and caught me before I could paint the whole room however I wanted!
It's really more of a golden color and I love it. This is what it's supposed to look like! See? Blue on BOTTOM!
There is a border going where the white line is, separating the colors.

As soon as I can get over there to take pictures of the finished nursery, I'll post the after pictures. I've seen it and it's super cute! Oh and I can take over my "project" I've been working on that's been giving me gray hairs. If you follow me on twitter you've heard all about it.

I can't be creative and be a perfectionist, it's not good for my blood pressure.
