So this week, I had an amazing offer. Some friends of mine offered to come and help me out regarding painting the kids rooms. So today, we tackled Missy's room. Now I don't have a picture of her old room but it was a grey/pink and it had had horribly perverted and nasty things painted on it.
See, the kids haven't been able to sleep in their rooms because of the robbery. They haven't felt safe. So, as a way of helping them to feel safe, I figured that I would paint their rooms, how they have wanted them painted. So I worked with Missy on purging some things and cleaning her room up.
If you know my girl, you know she loves horses. She has a plaque in her room, that reads. "Cowgirl at heart." So, on Wednesday, she and I went to Home Depot to figure out what she wanted. Well, she decided on a western/horse theme so we discussed how that would look. Her thoughts were on a "barn" type look in her room and then decorated with horse accents. So we went to the paint chip and decided on a combination of two different browns to form a "leather" look and feel to the room. So that is what I did today, paint her room in browns to provide a faux leather finish.
And now, decorations can start to be gathered and put up. She comes home on Monday night. I can't wait for her to see. And now Jamie's room is next!
