Hello my fellow bloggers,
So recently I did a big thing which I am so happy about. I mean if you can’t tell by the title:
I redid my entire room!
I painted and moved things around.
Okay, okay, I dont know where to start this but I will show you my before pictures so here you go:
For my prep work I:
- moved everything out of my room except for the big things
- spackled the tiny holes in my wall
- cleaned the walls
- taped up the trim and my doors and my window
- got all the paint supplies into my room
And then after prep I:
- painted the walls blue
- painted around the edges of my room
- waited for it to dry for a day
- painted one of my walls white in two coats
- taped up that wall
- painted it blue
- and wah lah
After:
I am so proud of how my room looks. I did it all by myself. I need to do touch ups on my accent wall because of course it bled through but it is expected with a textured wall. I don’t have the best pictures but you know what it is what you all are gonna have to deal with.
I am so happy with my room. For months, I have been wanting a change in my room. My room was always pink which, yes, it is a good color but, I just wanted something more mature and more me. Blue is my favorite color and this color blue is the most perfect blue in the world. The more I look at it and the more I stare at it the more it becomes my favorite color. Anyways I wanted a room more me.
I love minimalism but I also love having a bunch of stuff on my wall. I have a lot of things I need to put onto my walls like my horse ribbons and just some other things I love to have on my walls. I wanted my room to look more mature. I wanted it o look like me but also to still be pleasing to the eye. One thing about my old room was that I felt self conscious about it because it was such a child room. It was way to colorful and nothing matched. I wanted it to start feeling like those Pintrest rooms. I wanted my room to inspire me. I wanted to be able to keep my room clean so I got rid of a lot of things. So I wanted a new room.
And I achieved that. I feel like the blue is really soothing and not distracting. I changed up my room layout. My desk is in a new spot away from the window. When it was in front of my window I got so distracted because of the curtains. They always got stuck in weird positions and it always bugged me so I stopped working and tried to fix it. Obviously, that got me distracted so I wouldn’t work very well. Anyways I changed up all this stuff to make a better room for me.
I am so happy. This room just makes me very happy. I had a great time doing this even though it was a lot of work.
Anyways thank you for reading!
