What's black and white and red all over? The boy's new bedroom! The boys had a tough time deciding on a color scheme for the new room. Their old room was tangerine orange and white, so a fear of color was not the problem. Joe wanted 2 black walls and 2 navy blue walls. Steve wanted 2 black walls and 2 orange walls. They also wanted a black ceiling. It took two coats of primer and two coats of paint. Boy, are my arms sore!
I didn't want two bedrooms that were cave-like. We compromised on white trim, windows, and ceiling with black and red walls. I plan to use white blinds on the windows and gray carpeting on the floors. Here are the before and after painting photos.
Room's original state:
Smelly carpet removed and walls have received the first coat of primer:
The final coats of paint are being put on the walls!
Other painting projects completed this weekend were Katie's neon green and black bedroom, a white hallway, and a white bathroom. There needed to be some rooms that weren't a blast of color on the second floor!

That's a cute bedroom, though I'm not sure about the red. However, it goes very well with that black and white combo. Many thanks.
