Annie Sloan's Chalk painted kids' room floor

A few days ago I did a post about ripping the carpet out of the hallway and painting our wood floor with Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint....you can see that post here.  I did a pattern with grey and white

...and mentioned that the kids' room was next on the list.....

And here it is...

after tearing out the old carpet which went pretty fast actually...here's how it was looking.

 We had some water damage under the side window...I would love to move out all our living room furniture too and refinish all of our hardwood flooring but that's just not going to happen right now....

 We also had a couple of these where the old vents were.....

 Over all it was in pretty good shape and I really debated just coating it with some polyurethane and moving furniture back in when it was dry...

 But for us the quickest solution with the kids was to give it a wash of chalk paint, distress it and give it a coat of poly.    

I made these large wood letters for each of the kids (after seeing this post from Cass house) and used some paint and the vinegar barn wood stain (see that post here) you'll notice that Doodlebug's table is covered in tape....:)

 Brought the cubbies up from the basement....my husband and brother-in-law built these several years ago.....I've used them everywhere--kitchen, living room...

 I'm thrilled that the carpet is out!

And I'm trying not to worry about it getting worn

----Which is really funny considering that I made it look that way to begin with so it wouldn't matter if the kids destroyed it! 

And this is where it connects to the hallway.

Working on a small ottoman slipcover that I'm doing some stenciling on and I'm going to share some photos of that.  And I'm going to be doing some more hand stamped jewelry which I haven't done for awhile so I'm looking forward to that...
