The Boys room

When we moved into our new house the only room that really needed a lot of work was the boys room. It must have been a trophy room or something, but it looked like someone got a nail gun and just went crazy. So it was the first room we decided to fix up. Here are some before pictures.
Here is the a picture showing all the nails and screws removed from the walls.This does not include the holes without a nail or screw in it.
Jami and I stayed up late one night and primed the whole room. The kids all slept on cushions in Tyli's room. That was an adventure in of itself.
The boys helped us pick out the colors. It is a little bright but it lookes pretty cool. We plan on putting up some white shelves and doing something with the ceiling.

For some reason all the white in the room ended up looking pink??? It is white. I don't think the boys would go for pink. It was a good warm up for painting our front room which has some very high walls. We might mellow the color out for the rest of the house. :)

I actually like the bright colors. All the holes in the wall seemed a bit excessive but it looks good.
