Earlier this summer I had planned to put some color in my home. Even though we had painted every room when we moved in, Joe wanted more color... so I bought paint and planned to paint for the few days that I was off. Then Bailie decided she wanted to come home with me. She went to Tera's the first two days she was here so I thought I could still get the painting done then spend the rest of the week with her. It's always more work than I think. Needless to say I was not done when she got to our house. I asked her if she would mind if I finished up the paint then we could spend the last part of the week doing something. I started and she ask if she could help, so I covered the basement floor with plastic, put one of papa's old T-shirts on her and asked her if her would like to paint my picture frames from my room. She was so happy to do it. After sometime of painting she was done and wanted to do more. I was still painting in the dining room, so I asked her if her wanted to start in my room. I had saw in one of my decorating shows, how they had taped off patterns then painted the pattern to make a design on the wall. I thought it would be cool to try it. Bailie and I decided to make a pattern that would frame color around some of my picture frames in our room. I taped them off and she was going to paint it NAVY, SAGE & BURGUNDY. I put plastic on my carpet and told her we had to be very careful not to spill the paint, so I gave her a small roller and told her I was only going to put a small amount of paint in her paint pan .. then she could tell me when she needed more. I checked on her often, then I it got very quite in there , so I thought I would go check on her. When I walked in she was wiping the wall off, and I said what's up Bailie... she started crying and said she spilled it on the wall and was afraid she would be in trouble. Because she was trying to get it off for such a long time it had dryed on and would not come off. I told her it was okay and could fixed it later. We took the tape off the designs we had made, but the smear was under the square we had made. Well anyway we never got to finish everything with all the trips we made to Michigan this summer so yesterday I fixed the wall. I decided to fix the smear and paint the whole wall NAVY... I really like it thanks to Bailie, if she had not made that smear on the wall, I would not have painted the whole wall.
I really like it
