Bedroom: Before, During, and After

Before we even moved into our new house I had come across a photo of HUGE tree decals that I just fell in love with. I ordered them on the spot and couldn't wait to put them up in our new bedroom. Well, it took me forever to choose new bedding, which spiraled into finding a new paint color for the walls, which meant new window treatments, etc...basically the trees were the last thing to go up in a room where everything was changing. Well, this weekend I was finally ready for them!!

Here is the room after the new bed, new bedding, new paint color & new window treatments. I wish I would have gotten a "true" before pic...

Here is wall after about 4 1/2 hours of work. Every limb, branch & twig had to be cut out, matched up with it's base, & taped up on the wall so proper spacing could be figured out.
Here is where I started to get really excited and re-energized...I can finally see light at the end of a very long tunnel!
And here they are, my beautiful birch trees just like I'd envisioned!
