My new Music/Office Room

So, here is the story of the Black walls, a little different than the norm, but it turned out beautiful.  There is a lot of white trim and windows in this little room.  I told Alan I was going to paint this room black, and he said, "Don't do it..." but I listened to my inner self and went ahead and did it anyway.  I failed to mention to the owners what I was doing.  They showed up on the day I was painting it, EEEKK and I just about died... They said it was okay, but I made them a deal, when we move out, I would paint it over (on my own time, and purchase the paint)  They agreed.  But they never saw the finished product, they walked into my house when it was a complete and a total disaster, and I had stuff strung all over the place, as did the kids.  I was slightly embarrassed, and I braced myself, waiting for their reply... Turned out it wasn't so bad, I asked Carman (the owner) if she liked it? and she said, "Of course, but I have to." (because the paint was already purchased and on the wall).  I think it came together magnificently.. Just purchased some material & at some point in my day... week... month... I will make some valances and hang them.
