The progress of the master bedroom :-)

So this was the master bedroom when we bought the house. the lights in that ceiling fan were so low Matt could hit his head on it
There was no insulation in the walls And there was mold behind the 2x4s that held the curtains,  there was termite damage in the windowsills termite damage in the floor, horrible flower wallpaper ( that we tried to remove but couldn't) 
And  an ugly closet that wasn't deep enough for clothes. With a strange built in dresser and window? It was not practical at all.  I know we have more pictures somewhere... *Sigh* but oh well. 
So we gutted it completely minus the flooring and put in insulation and recessed lighting and new drywall.
 Sorry Matt I'm gonna throw you under the bus here, but then I let him choose the paint colors. And we lived with dark brown walls, Blue ceiling and no closet for two years. 
Until I made him put this two months ago



Then we finally decided to get our act together and fix/finish the room. Matt skim coated the walls with texture so that it would be very flat, installed new trim and finally the baffles for the lights, painted the walls a wonderful granite gray color by glidden, ceiling and trim an antique white
then he ripped up the old flooring and painted the subfloor the same antique white

The baseboards are drying on the driveway ready to be installed :-) this room is turning out way better than I ever could have imagined! 
I have an amazingly talented husband!!! I mean seriously look how good this room is turning out!!
