So we're finally planning to get a project started - and done! It's the master bedroom. This will be the last room in the house that needs re-doing - above ground. We still have to do the basement and lots of outdoor projects - so don't worry, plenty more blog posts to come.

Anyways, this *should be* a simple one. We've already re-wired the room, and there's very little plaster damage, plus only 1 layer of paper (as compared to vinyl) wallpaper, that peels off pretty easily, based on our tests. Also, we are painting trim in the upstairs bedrooms, as painful as that feels.

AND - no one painted any of the doors in the room! Woo hoo!

So, the plan is to paint it this color - Sherwin Williams Studio Blue-Green. We picked the color when we did the guest and sitting rooms last year, so the palette won't look like someone randomly picked a bunch of crayon-colors.

Also, we plan to accent the top of one wall (a freize) with this stencil - it's a Frank Lloyd Wright oak leaf design - that I picked up when I was at Taliesin at 2006. In dark brown, we think.Stay tuned - the fun (if you want to call moving furniture and clothes around fun!) starts tomorrow...
