Quinn’s Room Reveal

The much anticipated reveal of Quinn’s room. The project took on a life of its own and took us longer to finish then expected, but it was totally worth it. Without Further Ado…

Quinn Seeing His Room For The First Time

Let me start by saying the video is kind of long. I can say with great certainty that there was nothing worthy of being cut (I am bias). The video(s) are a bit long, but totally worth it. Please at least watch the beginning of the first one. Yes, Youtube cut me off when I tried to upload them as one so I broke them into two. Enjoy!

i like the kids more than the room, but i like the room too. it looks like a more comfortable place for me to be attacked and tell mario stories.

Megan

the cape on the corner- Thanks! I am loving the grey too! I was nervous about picking one. I didn't want the room to feel drab and I wanted a relatively true gray. Very happy with the results. Great back drop for a pop of color
Megan

Thanks Cheryl! It is always nice to hear encouraging words.
Candice

Oh my…I love it!!!! The chevron wall, colors you chose and all of the details! I especially love the gutter shelves. I'm soooo going to do those in our playroom.

Love a room for a "little" guy that as he gets old will still work….but if you are anything like me that probably won't happen! Great Work!
