New to me anyway. We painted and ripped up carpet and voila, huge transformation and I love it. Now I just have to get some super neat photography on the wall. I'm not sure what to technically count this as, I made the carpet disappear or I made a new bedroom, whatever doesn't really matter it's awesome and I'm so happy.
It sure was a lot of work though. I have a blister on my hand from yanking the staples out of the floor. Can't complain too much for a beautiful hardwood floor as easy as ripping up the carpet.

And if you are wondering why it looks like we have a crib next to our bed it's because we cosleep. Right now our 3 year old bounces back and forth between us and the crib but we plan to put the newborn in the crib in June and our next big project is our girls bedroom. Found out she was scared of the plant golden wallpaper, can't blame her. : ) Anyway the crib idea came from activist Jennifer Coias and you can read all about it at the drmomma peaceful parenting blog here.
If that sparks interest and you want more information on it please check out James McKenna and colleagues research through the University of Notre Dame here.
As far as the bedrrom goes we realized we didn't put on the bedskirt and we have some decorating to do as well as hemming the curtains but so glad we got this far.
