I agree, it came out nice, but it's time to either paint it something equally garish, or rethink the overall color co-ordination effort.

Good work, and I'm sure your daughter loved having her dad build her something special.

Nice job.

I'm sure your daughter enjoys having that extra play space too.

Yep. She loves it & the different colored walls

TommyHotWheel · 02-05-2011, 10:52 PM

That looks great. Great job.

Paint it gloss white. It'll match, give it a very finished look, and wipe down nice too.

yeah, white would look good.

Great job! I agree about white as well

Thanks guys. While white would look good and give it the overall HGTV little kid's room look. I'm going to do something completely opposite. My 7 year old will get to paint it this summer. She gets to pick the color or colors and make it her own.

I was actually going to suggest that in my previous post.

Serve both functions, and ensure a finished, color-coordinated result by:

1) Painting entire bed gloss white, as a base.

2) Arming kid with proper assortment of pre-chosen colors on the correct palette for the room for "custom adornment".
