Completion!

The NEW ROOMS for TWO project is almost complete!! The totally-great-priced plaid quilt that was backordered forever ARRIVED!!!! Today!!!
Finally, the wall color has met the quilt it was chosen for! And I must say, it looks just like I had hoped :)
Here's Andrew's bed (I left his Cardinals blanket right up on the headboard where he put it so it's not a perfect design by any means....but it is what it is meant to be: lived in!) A few more little things are still needed - some pillows or shams - perhaps a new bed skirt though the light light yellow one I have now is working....
I hope Andrew doesn't get mad that I'd post pics of his bed to the world with LAMBIE on it! To save face, I will say that *I* made Andrew's bed today - and it was MY idea to put Lambie there. :) We bought Lambie when I was about 7 months pregnant with Andrew on a trip to England at a charming store in Cambridge. Lambie's 10 years old too:

Even the green curtains are working, I think. If I stumble upon inexpensive curtains, I may change them out - but for now, I'm liking this:

And what a difference having her own room has made for Anna!! The former Miss Mess has transformed into "I want to make my bed girl"!! :)

Her room still needs some cute girly curtains - and a bed skirt to hide the mess under her bed.

I had to take some pics of her room today because aside from me picking up a book or two from the floor and throwing out some scrap papers left over from crafting at her little table, this is how ANNA herself has managed to keep her room neat:

On a sad side note: her bed is not turning out well :( I painted an oak bed frame white without priming or sanding....and it seemed ok. So I slapped some polyurethane on it & called it quits. Just recently, the poly is turning the bed frame a yellowy color, and there are already a few knicks in the white paint job. Oh well, for now, I'm saying the bed is a shabby chic sepia tone with rustic elements! I think that's what they would say on HGTV! :)
