Bedroom un-Makeover

Howard and I put a lot of effort into our humble home 4 years ago when we moved in, but as we near the end of this assignment, we must make it look like we never lived here.  We painted most of the rooms in our house so we have a lot of work to do before we move out.  Howard has a long weekend home and we thought that it would be best to start early, one room at a time, so that repainting won't be overwhelming the last week in our home.  He has started with our bedroom, since this is where Luke will sleep until we move (we ran out of space in our house for him).  We want the paint fumes gone before he is born.

Before (our beautiful sunshine yellow walls)

Howard and Erin working hard at making the walls look ugly.  You can't see it in this picture, but Howard painted the top (it looks perfect) and Erin did the bottom (pretty good for a 5 year old).  The standard color for base housing is the exact same color as masking tape. Ugh!

Ugh! I don't miss that paint color. How sad to have to paint it back already.
