I never learn my lesson

Nursery makeover step 1:


I found a picture of a room with horizontal stripes that I wanted to copy and for some reason ignored all my previous painting experience and decided we could totally do that ourselves. It took far longer than I care to admit and was an absolute nightmare. But I do love how it turned out.

Love it! So you're saying that the chevrons I want to paint might push me over the edge...

I love love love it! I want stripes in my new house somewhere. I'm hoping Greg doesn't see this post somehow, and I can talk him into doing it for me.

I can't wait to see this in person! I'm totally impressed. Baby Campbell already scored getting you guys for parents and now he gets the coolest nursery ever. What a lucky little guy!
