Marc and I were anxious to get started on the baby's room. Who, by the way, we have named Spencer. So we worked hard on Memorial Day weekend to tackle this project. It first involved emptying the room of its current contents (a whole bedroom suite) and moving that into the office/craft room.
Then we started painting. Don't worry it was well ventilated. 3 coats on the bottom and 2 coats on the top. Then we painted the chair rail and the following weekend we put it up. We also put up trim around the closet doors. I will say his room is the nicest in the house.
The next step is to do the finish work on the trim and then set up the crib. I am excited to do that and then start moving things into his room and getting ready for him. I think this is commonly referred to as the nesting stage of pregnancy. :)

Before shot
Marc did all of the intricate work as I painted the larger parts. Chocolate sprinkle on the bottom.
This was my first time painting. Not bad for a beginner. We put "rejuvenate" on the top half of the wall. It is a light green.
Voila! The painting is done and the chair rail and trim are next to go up.
