25 weeks 2 days

Well here it is, my meager attempt at creativity beyond plain green walls in Seth's room. You probably can't tell from these pictures (which is good), but there are a lot of ragged edges that need to be touched up on the stripes. But I have to admit, I am really happy with how it turned out overall. A lot of stress and frustration went into it, so I'm really glad it doesn't look completely ridiculous! There's more to come of course, but you get the idea. I can't wait, I repeat -- I CAN'T WAIT to get furniture in here!!!

You did an awesome job! It looks almost EXACTLY like the PhotoShop mock-up you liked! Are you going to put the extra little finesse inside the white bar somewhere? (Don't know if you want to keep that a secret or not so I hope you know what I'm talking about.)

Can't wait to see more! You're making such awesome progress!

Yes, we'll put his name up inside the white and maybe some other fun stuff. So far though at Michael's I've only found a 'T' and an 'H' so I hope they get some more S's and E's in stock soon!

Today I have been touching up the edges of those lines by hand with a tiny paintbrush. Holy cow it is taking FOR-EV-ER. But it's worth it, in person it looks 100% better touched up.
