The Purple Princess Palace

We have been in our house over a year and have finally decided to start the tedious process of painting our white walls! Well, to be totally honest, I should say paint our scuffed, fingerprinted, colored on, food splattered, scrapped-up whitish walls. I thought it would be fun to show some before and after pictures.

To prevent any beheadings from Princess Zany Janie, we decided to start with her room.

Here are some before shots taken shortly after we moved in. Notice how Wacky Zacky tried to be in all the pictures!





It may not be as transforming as Trading Spaces, but to us a little color on the wall makes a huge impact! Especially when you are use to seeing white everywhere! Here are the after shots of the Purple Princess Palace!

The color choice for the dressers were inspired from the two stuffed animals below.
A room can't be complete without something fun and unique from Etsy. A fellow Etsymom, Craftgirlalli, custom made these cute wall pegs for Princess Zany Janie's room.


One room down, several more to go! I'm guessing the next room to decorate will be Wacky Zacky's room. Especially since he's sitting back admiring Zany Janie's room green with envy!

Zany thought of the day: Why does it seem regardless of how careful and steady you hold your hand, it never fails to jerk out of control when you are painting near the ceiling?

Her room looks great! We also have ugly ugly white walls that are very dirty from the last people. We primered the boys rooms and this sunday we will finish painting them :)
