Before and After: Bedrooms!

Now that Christmas is over (which was amazing by the way)
I can get back to my before and after posts! 
In case you wanted to read the other posts on the house
here is the story of buying the house
and here is the Living area before and after

And now that brings us to the bedroom before and after pictures! 

Here is the master bedroom before 

And After!


Sorry about the doors and boxes and what not. 
We told ourselves we would never make a trip to the house without 
taking something over. 
That way we got a head start on moving which was a life saver.

So the master bedroom used to be two bedrooms. 
The previous owner knocked down the wall to make it into one very long room.
Its kind of a funny shape, but its been nice to have so much space.



We brought a mattress over so once the carpet was done so we could sleep there
 after working late into the night.  
Also beneath that curtain there is a new window that isn't broken :)



So for this room we patched and painted the walls and put in new carpet
When I first started painting the grey on the walls I didn't really like it! I was a little freaked 
out cause we had already bought a ton.
But as it dried and I got more on the walls I started to like it..
and then I started to love it!
Now I'm so glad we went with that color I think its perfect.

The true before and after for this room is yet to come.
I have big plans!! 
I'm super excited about it 
but just getting new flooring and paint in there made a huge difference :)

Now here is Micah's room



His room is hard to get pictures of because it is very small
And just like the rest of the house it still needs trim 

The pictures make the color of the walls look almost the same 
but before it was much more blue. 
Also the ceiling was the same color as the walls which I felt made the room 
feel even smaller and darker. 
Getting the ceiling white made a big difference 



Those words on the wall were actually stickers and if we painted over them you 
could still see an impression so we had to peel them off.
super fun



The paint color is the same grey thats in our room,
Still loving it

Once again, I have big plans for this room!
It's going to be real cute 

Micah has yet to sleep in his room. 
We moved in right before Christmas and so soon after  we moved Matt's mom and sister 
came (Yay! so much fun) So Micah's room has been the guest room since the basement is 
unfinished.  It's worked out great though because our room is so big that Micah 
just stays in there with us.  His crib is being painted anyways, so his pack and play is his bed for now.


So those are the bedrooms we have redone so far.
There are two more in the basement, but besides ripping out carpet 
we haven't done much down there. 
(except for in my laundry room and food storage, super excited about that)

Well, until next time,
hope everyone is having a great Saturday!
