good morning :D

good morning all.
just to say thanks for all your lovely comments, i hope to be back visiting you soon.
the decorating is going well but i was struggling to get around the walls and ceiling because of little mans furniture and toys so we had to empty some stuff into the spare room and put him in our room for a few nights.
the gloss is now finally finished.some places needed 3 coats.doesn`t help that the gloss before was blue ( previous tenants had a passion for coloured gloss ) so because i want it white it took some covering.
the ceiling is also done and i have also given all the walls a base coat of white as it was a disney pooh bear yellow before.
today the colour can go on.we went to choose the paper for the one wall yesterday and instead of picking the space paper little man chose the superfresco paintable which has stars all over.
we are painting 3 walls a pale blue and the papered wall will be a dark blue.we are then painting the stars in silver and gold.
so today i am hoping to get the pale blue paint on and hopefully the paper.
at least it will look better when its done :D
i`m really missing you all in blogland and i`m sick of getting paint in my hair :D
have a fab day and catch you soon.

luv coops xxxxx

edited to add a pic of work in progress so far
primed and ready for colour.
and the infamous 3 coated door :D
back off to paint :D
