House in the winter

Over President's Day weekend, Joe and I headed up to our house. It was a busy, busy weekend of painting and putting together our bedroom. It's not done yet. We are adding a chair and a small bookcase and a few other things, but it is starting to feel more complete.

We had picked out a paint color and even bought a sample of it, but when we opened the big cans, it looked slightly different. The color ended up being slightly lighter than the sample had been, more of a caramel latte than the coffee color we had picked, but we really like it. It makes the room warm.

Here are a couple of before pictures. It is not possible to get a picture of the whole room because of the way it is arranged:

The walls were the same color as the closet doors and the trim:

Here is my attempt of showing the new paint color:

Curtains- Both of them will be tied back with these tassels, but somehow we only bought one hook so we'll fix that next time:

Headboard, bedspread, and picture. We're not sure if that table will stay there or not (the bedspread looks a little funny because it is a queen on a full. We'll get a queen someday though!):
