Atrt Studio Makeover - Painting and Staining

As mentioned in a previous post, we are making over a bedroom into an art studio for me.  I wanted it to be very girly and fun.  We painted the walls a bright pink color, the paint is Razzle Dazzle from Benjamin Moore.  I love the color but it was the worst paint I've ever used - it was very runny and did not have good coverage - it took several coats.  We also took the doors off the closet and painted it a dark charcoal grey.

I'm anticipating lots of messy craft/art projects in the room,  so I didn't want to have carpet.  We decided to stain the concrete with a black acid stain.  We hired someone to do the floor for us since we knew it would be lots of work!  Her name is Autumn and she did an awesome job - I would definitely reccommend her.

So now the room is all ready for me to move in my stuff!!
