Bit by bit

I couldn't find a "before" picture of our former office,



but the walls were blue and it was a little dark for a basement room.






Here it is with a fresh new coat of paint!



(A big thanks to all of my family



who came over to help paint!!!)








These photos are a little dark, but you can see that all of Julia's furniture is now in her new room.







Ethan will sleep in here for then next few days until his room is ready.






We decided to put bunk beds in Julia's room and a full size bed in Ethan's room



so when we have guests they can sleep in Ethan's room



and Ethan can sleep in one of the bunk beds in Julia's room.






We'll see how it works out.




We have a lot of stuff that still needs to be moved, but we're getting close!

Update:

Here is Ethan's room. I still want to organize his shelves, but for now it's working out great.

I love the new set-up! Where did you get the bunk beds? I think that was a great idea for friends/guests (like us! hehe....). Cool how the beds fit so nicely right in that little nook. Can't wait to see the upstairs rooms too!

It looks so good! I'm sure the kids love sleeping downstairs now. I bet it makes them feel all grown up. How fun for them to be able to share a room for a little bit too!
