Before.
Before. Why did it need to be repainted?
Before. I don't think the previous owners knew to take off the outlet covers before painting....???
Before. And maybe they didn't realize there are angled trim brushes or even tape for painting straight lines....
Jason starts the endless process of mudding holes and dents in the walls.
He then sands out the spots so we can prime the walls. This turned out to be quite a big job.
Jason puts down tape on the trim for a clean line. Notice that we do take the outlet covers off.
The new paint is dry, and Jason hangs the blinds. The new paint looks the same color as the old paint, but it wasn't really that close. The new paint is more aqua.
After. Carpet is cleaned, curtains are hung and Noah's room is back in order.
The project cost was relatively low: the cost of primer and paint!

His room looks really nice!! Eli's room looks a little like the before shots. The people who rented our house last year didn't know how to paint either. (Or more likely they just didn't care when they were painting it back to white. Hopefully we will be able to get his room looking as nice as Noah's soon. :-)
It looks GREAT and wow, I can't believe people paint like that...right over outlet covers! Insane.
Anyway, is Noah in a crib? I noticed you had the crib tent in the picture or do the boys share a room?
Yes, Noah is still in a crib. We are keeping him in there as long as possible. Hopefully at least until he is 3.
