We already have the bedding for her. It's SO cute. Here's a picture of her blanket.
How hard is it to match the paint with the bedding we already have? We wanted stripes. We wanted a chair rail. We wanted a dark solid color. Did we consult Cindy? Did we get a second opinon? Did we make sure we were not insane? No. We just bought. And painted. And this is what we got...**Cue circus music**
As you can see, Trevor isn't so sure about it...
It isn't done, of course. There's much more. Finishing all the OTHER walls, and putting up the white chair rail in the center, which will have little green leaves painted on it. Then of course filling it with furniture. MAYBE it will be ok. Did we go to dark? Probably. Will it be ok? Ummm...I don't know. All we can do is numbly cry out "Yowzer!" Every time we look at it. What do YOU think? Don't worry, I'll post a finished picture whenever the far off day arrives...

uhm... I am not really sure what to say because I am no expert but I think once you put the chair rail up it might look o.k. It's a little circusy but it might get better with that and furniture.
I don't think it's as bad as you think. I didn't think it was circus-y until you said it. Maybe not do ALL the walls like that and it will soften up what you don't like. But furniture and chair rail WILL make a big difference. I say don't be so hard on yourself...the purple is cute and it does totally match the bedding. :o)
We already talked about my opinion. Next time, call me first girl!
Nah, it's not that bad. If you can tone down the contrast between the white and purple in the stripe to make it more subtle, it'll probably be okay.
If you find Afton can't sleep, I guess you could change it then! LOL!
I love the purple. I had a purple wall once. It is a little dark on the bottom but a lot of it will be covered up by the furniture. Is the color of the furniture light or dark? If you do decide to repaint,I'm pretty certain that doing it now would be easier than doing it later.
Just so you know, Bethany looked at the photos and said "Why did they do that?"
So much for her endorsement. She likes the blanket.
Hi Mrs. Rees. I was looking around on google at pictures of Elk Ridge and it pulled up your blog. I think that the room looks so cute! I am so excited for you and your husband. My cousin says it is all worth it in the end. :D
