The hubby went on leave for his birthday and on the two days that he stayed at home, he decided to paint our bedroom...well, technically it was not our bedroom anymore since it had been appropriated by our daughter as hers. In fact, her cabinet had already been moved inside the room and stands alongside mine to make some sort of a walk-in closet for our things, to still give her some sort of privacy even if we are dressing up. Furthermore, she already filled the back of the cabinets with posters of her favourite boy and girl bands. So I guess she has claimed it already now as hers. We decided to just paint the walls white and then just the ceiling would be painted a slight blue tint or even a dark blue one to mimic the night sky...after that we planned to put in some glow in the dark stars so that come night time, the room would be filled with stars in the sky.
But when I got home yesterday, I was quite surprised to see that the paint did not really go as we planned. What he placed on the ceiling was the ghastly blue of a clear blue sky, not light like the dawn when the sun is just rising or dark like the night as I had wanted. He says, he was unable to control the amount of blue paint that he stirred in with the white and it was too late to take it back. So, to balance it up a bit, my daughter and I decided to just put in some white puffy clouds to cover the very striking blue hue. I downloaded some pictures from the web and even watched videos on how to make/paint clouds in walls and ceilings and they seem easy enough...I just hope we would be able to do it as we had envisioned it to be...here are pictures of rooms with some clouds that we want to incorporate, let’s just hope that everything goes well as planned.
