Well, I can happily say that I'm about 95% done with Callan's room. Just a few more touches and it will be complete. It might be a while before I get around to those last touches, so here's a peek at what the room looks like at nearly finished.
But first,
let's take a quick look back at what Callan's room looked like when we moved in.
Remember those lovely 1970s intercoms?
Yea, those are GONE {thanks to my father-in-law}.

Ok, on to what that formerly purple/grey, dingy room looks like now.

Left to do in the room:
add a shade to the arched window
add some sort of valance to the other window
add some sort of valance to the other window
buy/make a curtain panel for the closet doorway, and install it
{eventually} replace the carpet or hunt down an {8x10} area rug
paint the door
I think Callan approves.
**{Note: This room was re-done on a ridiculously small budget.
The cost of a can of primer and a can of paint (my parents bought the second gallon of paint), and maybe $15 for maps and fabric. Everything else we already had - items were repurposed, repainted, and reused.}**
