Master Bedroom Redo

In the same Thanksgiving weekend we moved into the master bedroom...since the paint was taking forever to dry in the bathroom. Again... we have lots of wood that needed to be painted white. We decided to change primers for this round to an oil based paint. Things went much smoother and the paint dried SO much faster. The coverage was thicker we did 2 quick coats and put on the final coat on in the same evening. It was all dried and ready to go in the morning on Sunday.

Here is our bedroom before. With lots of wood. UGLY gold ceiling fan and hideous window coverings (even though they did block out the light)



Here are the after photos of the windows, closet doors and molding.



We also purchased a new ceiling fan as well as new window blinds. We opted for the faux wood ones...look just as good as the real ones and half the price!





We still have the other side of the closet doors to paint this evening then we will start to paint the bedroom walls. I convinced Terry that we should have a lavender bedroom. Purchased the paint for that last night and will be doing that this week/weekend. Then we will add our bed and furniture back into our bedroom (sleeping in the guest bedroom now). More photo transformations to come :)

I have been asked what primer and paint we used for these projects. See below. We purchased both of these products at Ace Hardware. I believe they were around $20 something for each gallon of paint. We have painted the bathroom and bedroom molding, cabinets and doors and still have about 1/4 of it left in each. So it goes a long way.
