We started by moving Bryant and his things into the girls' room. We primed the blue wall and repainted the entire room to a medium green. We think color turned out really nice. From there we moved the office to the newly painted room and then painted Bry's blue accent wall again. He now sleeps on the queen bed and still has room to play. If any of you come to visit you're welcome to boot him out for a decent bed!
The painting didn't stop there. Some of you might recall that we had painted the front room and living room a light tan color. We decided that the color was too light. We found a darker tan color that we thought would look better and proceeded to repaint downstairs. We did a slightly darker accent wall in both of the downstairs rooms. While Heather and the kids were gone to a family reunion (Johansen side) I took on the monumental task of painting the stairwell. It's a good thing I have a Little Giant ladder, otherwise this would have been extremely difficult. Here's a picture of the setup.
Oh, remember the "colorful" couches we inherited for the front room? Don't the slip covers look great?!

Yes, the slip covers look way better. And...you couldn't pay me to climb up that ladder. Holy cow. Congrats on getting your crap done with.
The slip covers look much better. Where did you get them? They look better than some of the covers I have seen. Do you realize that you only have a little over 10 weeks before you have 4 kids?! Crazy...we will have to plan another trip out there to see her!
Slip covers came from JCPenney. They had only a few in the store, so ours were ordered from the catalog.
Yea, Caleb helped me make and rebuild scaffold for the stairwells when I painted or wallpapered. Not a pretty picture when I was 6 mon pregnant! It turned out nice, nesting is getting completed.
