Today we did the final cleaning upstairs in the rooms that are getting new windows. Tomorrow is the day that they come! Sooo excited!
I took down those ugly green flowered valances in my bathroom that have been up for over seven years!! I have wanted to take those down since the day we moved and never had a good excuse or really anything to replace them with! Today, they came down!! And no, I don't really have something to replace them with! The curtains and valances were already down in my bedroom.
The playroom is almost empty. It is ready for a new window and a new coat of paint. This room actually had some pretty valances, but those came down along with the very broken shades. I think I am just going to get some nice curtains for this room. This will be Christian's room and I think some blackout curtains will be fine.
The valances came down in Christian's room and I have an idea on how to use them again. I don't think I am going to put them back up because I am taking the shades down in his room and those are not going back up! This is going to be the baby's room, so I think I am just going to go buy some curtains from Target to cover the entire windows. I think this will be cheap and easy!
As for my room and the five different windows, I really want to get blinds that go inside the windows, but I know that may cost a little bit. Somebody also mentioned making/ buying curtains. I will have to do some more research before I decide which way to go here. I also want a fresh coat of paint on my bedroom walls.
Megan and Courtney's room is not getting new windows, but I think we can change it up a bit. I think they can get their room painted and rearranged. I think they are going to be stuck together for awhile. :)
The bathroom also has a new shower curtain and new rugs. We took down these lovely valances today too. :) Hip hip hooray!!! I would like this room painted and some new curtains or shades. I haven't quite decided yet.
I found somebody who will paint our walls for $25 an hour, which I don't think is bad! I think we are going to hire him to paint one and room and see how he does before he does anymore. I am so anxious to get a new look upstairs AND to start getting ready for this baby's arrival!
