Little Squares

Since we didn't know the sex of our first child (Justin) before he was born, we painted the room neutral tones of blue and green. The thinking was that adding a few accent squares, plus the usual bedding and wall accessories would be enough to tilt the room in either direction (boy or girl) depending on the outcome. However, once we painted the "boy squares" the first time around, I think there was some skepticism as to how "neutral" the room was to begin with (especially with the blue). Well, with Jasmine's arrival, we got a chance to finally see if the theory would match up with practice... And 3 repainted squares later, I've gotta say that I'm pretty happy with the results. It's funny how just a few dabs of paint and a hint of pink can soften the look of a room. Here are a couple of shots of the before and after... From Justin...



...to Jasmine.


We'll take pics of the full room once we get the other accessories up and done.
