Master Progress

This was the day we moved in.  I immediately had Stephen rip out the closet so we could shove our bed in there and have a place to sleep. Nice faux wood paneling on the window wall, huh?

So, here we are now.  These are the decorations I already had but need much re-vamping.  Not into the dark anymore. The sconces will be painted white, the lights will be painted white and the frames will be black with a pearl-y shimmer glaze over the brown  But will definitely be keeping the plaque I hand painted above the bed that says "All because two people fell in love"

Here's Luella's bed I built for her. She's only 7 months and still nurses at night. We couldn't fit our Arm's Reach Co-Sleeper next to the bed, so I built one myself.

And of course, I build Hubby's side (with accompaning iPad), that still needs some paint touch up.

So, next cheap project will be to paint it all dreamy... that's cheap... and maybe next month, when I have more money... I will actually have to build walls around the closet I built and put a door on the bathroom.
And print out the pictures of the black and white pictures of the kids sleeping to replace our wedding pictures that don't match anything.
