I'm painting my room today. I'm painting it white, because I bought this bedding: my love Then I'll go back later & do something with black...not 100% sure what though.
i'm so excited to get the awful bright blue // green combo off my walls!! i'm waiting for my padre to get home so we can get started!!!
i'll post before/during/after pictures later.

I just finished taping everything. That was fun....I guess. Coldplay's Viva La Vida album got me through it.
And then I went to the paint store. Benjamin Moore Ice White. It has blue undertones which my paint friend tells me will complement the blue in my bedding. It's perty.
Off to do a coat of primer to cover up the atrocious bright blue.

how exciting! for the black, maybe you could do like, 3 really thin stripes around the top of your wall. i've always thought that looks so classy.

It's rather difficult to take pictures of a plain white wall. I can't take the tape off yet because its still drying.

Love that bedding! :) It's going to look really cute. :) Wal*Mart used to have some really cute black chandeliers that you could just hang from a corner of your bedroom, you might check there! :) It looked similiar to this one by the brilliant Rachel Denbow! :) Love how she used Hambly to make it.
