Room Transformation....Our First Painting in this house

Since we are only renting our house we have had white walls in EVERY room for a bit over a year since we've been here. I've been wanting to paint for awhile, but Will wasn't very interested and we didn't know what our landlord would say. Well, Will finally got the knack to want to paint our front room. So he called our landlord and she said sure! So after a few trips to Home Depot this weekend and an accident involving our new kitty in the paint and all over the carpet, we finally got the room done. It was a lot of work, but IT LOOKS GREAT!
WE LOVE IT!!!!

It looks so good. We will have to come over and see it in person. Also love the black and having it start a couple of inches from the ceiling is awesome. Good idea! HA HA!

Looks way cute! Painting is way fun. We could paint our apartment but I am pretty sure I don't wanna paint it back when we move.
