O HAI GUISE! I finally got all the laundry folded and the tape down to get a picture!
EDITED for More Photos

You remember the Rumpus Room Before:
Rumpus Room Before

Rumpus Room Before

And After!


Rumpus Room After

I cleaned the carpet, re-arranged the sofa, bought new throw pillows, primed and painted all the wood paneling blue, painted all the yellow and dishwater walls a shiny cream, installed round paper lanterns over the bright can lights, and added some of my art. John built the light blue media shelves and framed in the glass brick wall.

John framed in the window, I painted it. Yes, I need to fill that hole in the wall.

Oo! It's gorgeous! Looks like it'd actually be a lovely place to, y'know, hang out.

Thanks!

I KNOW! WE WILL!
It'll be so nice in the summer when the rest of the house is hot.


You can see why there was 2 weeks of yelling, "DON'T TOUCH THE WALLS!!" 2 layers of primer and 2 layers of paint, then trim, then touch ups takes awhile :)

Worth every bit of those two weeks, methinks. :)

I would have do it while Mark was here, but he would not let me. He LOVED the wood paneling as it was.
And we were already arguing about enough.
