weekends work





we went to Collie late Friday to help Kirsty re decorate Jacks bedroom as his birthday present.  His birthday is today and he is officially now a terrible teenager.  Jack is away until Thursday, he is in a leadership group that they took to Melbourne for a week so it will be a surprise for him when he gets home.  John, Kirsty and I repainted the walls, I really love the dark grey on the feature wall and the light shade is impressive, it came from Ikea.  Kirsty and I repainted the chest of drawers by the door which is the grey from the wall with the white rubbed on top.  The beautiful antique bedhead is actually a bed end and Kirsty has put it back to front as the front is very ornately carved and not boy enough.  What to you think.  John and I left at 2 to come home so it was a day and half's work.  Its quite hard to photograph rooms and get a lot of detail in the photo, putting it on an angle gives you more of an impression and looks more spacious.

  4. thank you for the comments. Yes Jack's birthday is on the 2nd as well. The basketball transfer Kirsty got online, think it was about $50 but as you can see it is quite a big transfer. He has a double bed, so the rooms is a good size.
