what a difference a day and paint color can make

We pulled it off! While Nikki went to Duluth for the church girls' day out, Michael and I did an Extreme Room Make-over: Nikki's Bedroom. We emptied out the place and threw a lot out (she's so sentimental over EVERYTHING she's ever received!). We did save some things she can go through. On went the paint. The walls went from this blonde-sand color to black and ummmmm some kind of pale cucumber green. The carpet is white and the ceiling is white with shiny specks. The accessory colors are lavendar and white. The place is GORGEOUS! Michael is letting her use his tv. We hung a couple new canvas paintings up and her bulletin board is so cool we made it a major focal point on her 'big wall'. Her art supplies need a place yet. We found some broken glass that she drew on that need to get hung up somewhere...she has a major drawing talent. I will have to get pics up of some of the work she's done. OMGsh. She can take any piece of junk and turn it into something so valuable.
Anyway, she texted us when they were about a half-hour from home. We were booking like crazy trying to finish and then she called and we were done! She was so surprised and thankful. We were so glad she liked it. We weren't too sure because there were dramatic changes and she sometimes does not accept change too easily at first. She really loved it! It was a busy, fun, productive day!
