Before
This is the before pictures of what we now call our Texas room. The walls are painted a dark mauve color, and the floor is a dirty brown carpet.
This is my mother, and behind her is some light colored paneling on lower half of the wall. Above is where I am going to paint a mural of the Texas flag.
Here is our fireplace that wouldn’t fit in our master bedroom, so this is it’s new home.
Notice the dirty brown carpet is gone, and in it’s place is our pretty new floor.
These are the steps that go up into the sunroom. Still need to add the base boards, and stain the front wood molding of the steps to match the wood floor, but hubby says wait till he gets railing up on the right side of steps, so that they are more noticeable.
Our new flat screen TV and table ( love the table).
My hand-painted Texas Flag trash can.
Here is my Texas Flag mural that I painted. Notice that the light colored paneling under the mural is gone. In it’s place we put cedar wood slates, and framed out my mural with cedar too. Much better don’t you think?
We are going to cover the light colored paneling on the lower part of the bar at the right with corrugated metal. Then trim it out with cedar too. I will post pictures when it’s complete.

That is one beautiful room Linda. I love your wall mural. It is so bold just like Texas itself. You certainly have given so much vibrancy and life to this room.

Thank you Mary! I have been wanting to paint a wall mural for a long time, but couldn’t decide what. I was really surprise when I suggested it to the hubby and he said go for it. I get lots of comments on it.
Now I want to paint barnyard animals on our rustic shed out back. Don’t know whether I will ever get around to that one. LOL
