well i got an itch today to paint the playroom. We have a room under the stairs that is designated to toys only. It is the one room i do not care about. the kids can play and leave a mess and i do not care. I simply shut the door and do not have to see it. The first time i painted this room i did not have kids yet, i was pregnant and did not know the sex of the baby yet. So i painted it with a house and grass and flowers!!! Then i found out i had was going to have a boy. Still never changed it. Had another boy and contemplated changing it, since it was a little girly. So today was the day. I headed to Home Depot bright and early , hoping to have it all done before Roy got home from work tonight. Thankfully he does not get off work till 9 pm. I asked Cassi for some suggestions. I told her i wanted to paint stripes in boy colors. She suggested green. I thought to myself, I never thought about green. Good idea!! so we got all the supplies and away we went, Ryland and I that is. We did primer.... ok now ready for the first coat of the lighter green. WOW thats bright!!! The darker green will tone it down , right? Well i finally finished at about 5 pm. My mother-n-law walks in and her only words were WOW!!! I like it!! ( i think) well i am puling tape off and finishing up when i hear her say," Ryland your playroom looks like the guys shirt from Blues Clues!!" i stopped in my tracks and started laughing Hysterically.... Mary came in and asked what i was laughing about.. All i could say, "at least Ryland likes Blues Clues!!!" so i am finally finished and over the fact of what it resembles, just can't wait for Roy to see it. he has no idea i did it!!!!

It really does look cute, a play room should be bright and fun.
Looks like a lot of work, but turned out soooo cute!
