After our crazy trip I was so glad to be home and I had a lot of things on my to-do list. First thing was to decorate and paint my bonus room. All year long I have been into the color orange and after we bought a brown couch for the room I knew orange would look great for the walls.
I don't really have any before pictures, but the room was basically tan and had random junk sitting in it. This is the only picture I could find and it was taken right after we bought our home three years ago. Just imagine a bunch of junk in it and that's what it looked like. Minus the curtains.
I have to recommend this painter's tape that we used on the ceilings. Because I'm crazy I cannot stand to see mistakes in my painting and because of these slanted ceilings we have in the room we splurged on this new painter's tape that is a little more expensive than the blue tape that most people use. It's called Frog Tape and it's AMAZING! I had it up for almost a week while I finished the room and when I took it down the ceilings were spotless. I totally recommend this tape for anyone who is doing any type of painting because it WORKS!
So here are the final pictures. Not everything is perfectly matched, but with a new ceiling fan and a little TJ Maxx love, the room is now a much more comfortable place to relax. We spend a lot of time in here now, especially at night. I'm so happy with my orange room!

Looks good! Your orange turned out better than my orange. We put it in the dining room with a bay window and 18 foot ceilings and it looked neon orange. You could see it from the road. Needless to say it had to be repainted. Very pretty.
Ohh!! I love it! I was so excited to hear about this project and couldn't wait to see it. Beautiful!
