I don’t know about you, but I saw this and immediatly felt the need to paint my bedroom.

Nicole from Making It Lovely recently posted a detailed guide to DIY painting. And I’ve been thinking that it’s time to step up my DIY efforts…so this might be a good place to start! (By the way – did you read the caption? I can only aspire to that level of DIY expertise…)

We moved into our house three and a half years ago, right before my twins were born. While we were able to get most of the rooms painted (via professionals this time – I mean, give us a break – with an 17 month old running around and twins ready to be born at any minute, we needed help!)

The master bedroom didn’t quite make the cut. So I have been looking at dreary bone white walls for years now.

I think a complete bedroom makeover may be in order. And the first project will be updating a couple of boring white lamps and repairing and painting the rickety side tables. But painting the walls is high on my list of musts, so I’m holding onto this article.

I totally think I can do it myself. We’ll see…
