Bedroom accent wall

We're now in the process of painting the accent wall in our bedroom. Yesterday we tackled the first coat. Boyfriend put me on his shoulders (and thankfully didn't die) to tape and paint the ceiling. We recommend you get a step stool or ladder instead!

We laid a clear plastic drop cloth to cover the carpet, taped off the ceiling, walls we wanted to protect and the baseboards:

 











Then we rolled on our first coat...

And were so excited to do our second coat:
