A Bedroom Fit for Two Princesses


The room before:

Dark green walls...and "popcorn" ceiling texture (Mark's personal pet peeve):


First, Mark pulled off the old border and scrapped the loose paper.


He had a lot of great help!


Next, the old popcorn came down!

Then he primed the walls twice:


Then he skimmed the walls with drywall mud twice:


Again, he had good help!

New ceiling texture!

Then it was time to sand the walls:

He is a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to this step!

O.K., ready to paint!



Now for the border:



Mark hung some shelves for Maya's "special things".

Maya and I made some names to hang above their beds:

Viola! A beautiful room fit for two princesses!!
