    Default I'm psyching myself up.....I bought paint for the bedroom

    that I'm about to re-do..... . I'm dreading it like the plague but I'm working on my attitude, dude. I'm hoping for sometime in the next 10 days or so. Could I get some motivational sayings to push me onward and upward please?

    Cj it's the first bedroom that I textured the walls in. It's done in white and off white and I love the colors. I have a new log cabin quilt that my dsil made for the bed and new curtains so I'm doing it exactly the same colors. Off white (or actually antique white) walls with white trim. It's just the texture doesn't look good to me after I've gotten so much better with experience. My whole family is going "oh don't re-do it, it looks fine" but it doesn't to me....kwim? Sssoooooo lookout bedroom here I come! (well not right now this minute....but it's gonna happen and soon!)

    Go Lisa Go! You know I've always been one of your biggest cheerleaders when you do your "thing". We've been together for many a project, lol.

    Will do Michele. I plan on doing a tutorial as well. I'm still not that motivated even though the paint is staring at me when I go in there.....
