The Promised Before and After Pics- My Bedroom

Here are the before and after pictures (finally, right?)! Please let me know what you think!

Before

After I have been trying to post these pictures for a couple of weeks but, as you can see it has not happened until now. Katie and I love sharing a room and have been since I was to big for my crib. I have thoroughly enjoyed our time together! We have had many memories...and sharing sister secrets is one of the many. :D I am so blessed to have such an amazing big sister. I do believe that we would not have been "so" close if we had not had this opportunity. :D Anyway, I am so happy to finally be posting the "after" pictures of our new (well, a month old) bedroom. We painted it July 4th weekend. It was our first painting job without mom and dad's instruction and I am happy to say that it went very smoothly! *woot* Andrew wanted to help us paint around the windows and doors and he did a terrific job at it! We may have a future painter in our family. :D Also, my wonderful Daddy painted the walls. Katie and I worked on painting everything else in between...twice! Yeppers, it was a blast! At first we were not sure if we liked the shade of pink, but it has grown on us and we now can say that we like it! We hope you enjoyed taking a peek at our bedroom! :D

Have a wonderful week everyone!

    Seriously, the room really looks great, Em. I love the way everything goes together! I wonder what would happen if I posted pics of my room, red carpet and all, on my non-existent blog...

  12. Hi Emily,
    I saw your link on the Feelin Feminine site. I too love pink and had to check our your blog! Your room is so pretty. I am planning on painting my laundry room pink. I really like the shade you used. Could you tell me what color/brand of paint you used? I also wanted you to know that your love of Jesus does shine through on your site. Isn't He wonderful!!!

  13. Juliet-

    Thank you so much for stopping by Practically Pink! I am so excited that you liked it! Please feel free to stop by again if you want... :) I'm so sorry for taking such a long time to get back to you! We have been working on getting in "school mode" this week. :P Anyways, the color/ brand is: Delicate Pink Rose by Valspar. It came from Lowes. Thank you again for stopping by and for the sweet comment. I am so blessed with sweet/encouraging blogging friends. I hope one day I can meet some of you! Maybe, the Lord will allow me to meet just one... :) It doesn't hurt to dream a little I guess. I hope you have a splended day and please stop by again. You encouraged me very much. :)

    Love In Christ,

    Emily
