Now that my boys are 13 and 7 I felt I needed to get rid of some of the "baby" stuff in their room and make it a bit more masculine. Because it's such a tiny room I like the white furniture, but for some reason, I always felt that the white bunk bed was sorta girlie. I've wanted to paint it green or navy blue for a couple of years now, but it's such a pain to paint that bed, that I kept putting it off. I finally did it and added some boy stuff to the walls. I still need to add one more coat of paint. Ugh...Really though, I love the quick, inexpensive changes that a can of paint can accomplish!
