Emily Room Extreme Makeover
Sep 7th, 2009 by Tom
My little girl is growing up. She will always be my little sunshine. It has been 2 or more years since Emily has talked about painting her room. Patiently she waited as other projects took priority. Now it was her turn.
After 3 or 4 trips to Home Depot for color swatches, she picked out her 2 colors: lime green and light blue. They matched her new bedspread and would give the room her own unique, young-girl look. We worked together most of the time, from painting to removing the carpet to setting up the new loft bed.

Her brothers helped a bit too and are already thinking about their room makeover…! There are a number of pictures of before and after on our SmugMug site. I’ve also put together a short video as we worked through the stages of the “extreme makeover”.
(The pic on the left of little brother, Josh, peaking in on his big sister’s new room is a common view at our house these days).
