Negatives first . I messed up the car picture and have to remove it , some of the white came of from the colour wall. I got paint on the carpet.

Positives. It's taken me a long time to get to this stage although it's not 100% it looks like a kids room. And not like temporary accommodation so on the whole I'm happy with it and I think the boys will like it to.

That looks brilliant- so happy and bright, they'll love it! Well done you!

DrunkenElephant · 29/12/2023 22:46

I’ve followed your posts and you should be so, so proud of yourself!

You've absolutely smashed it, they are going to be over the moon!

It doesn’t matter that you don’t think it’s perfect, I can guarantee that they will. It’s a room made of pure love and hard work and you need to give yourself some credit.

Well done, genuinely. You’ve done an amazing job x

loggerheads · 29/12/2023 22:49

I saw your earlier threads. You're a fantastic mum and have achieved so much in such a short space of time. I hope you're able to see that. Flowers

SgtJuneAckland · 29/12/2023 22:50

I remember your previous posts, and you're just incredible. The change in mindset and motivation is huge, you should be so proud of what you've done, your boys will be thrilled.

Thatbloodyhedge · 29/12/2023 22:54

Lucky boys!
Well done!
That's amazing 🤩

AllTheChaos · 29/12/2023 22:54

That’s fantastic! They are going to love it - brilliant job!

GrumpyOldCrone · 29/12/2023 22:54

I saw one of your previous threads, so I’m incredibly happy to see this! Amazing work, OP! What a wonderful mum you are.

Notellinganyone · 29/12/2023 22:55

Really love the rug! It’s transformed.

ElBandito · 29/12/2023 22:57

Brilliant job.
Don't give up on the car decal, there's a chance it might peel back so you can get the wrinkles out and stick back on. I hope it does!

BeaLola · 29/12/2023 23:02

It is perfect - perfectly made with your love for your boys - it's beautiful, they will be chuffed and remember it forever

Charlize43 · 29/12/2023 23:05

Absolutely brilliant! I'm sure they will love it!

SutWytTi · 29/12/2023 23:08

Lovely thread, excellent room!

TenThousandSpoons · 29/12/2023 23:08

Looks awesome OP, well done! I remember your first post a while ago and so pleased for you and your boys that you have achieved this! 👏

MuchTooTired · 29/12/2023 23:11

The room looks amazeballs, well done!!! How did you do the rainbow triangle wall? I’m sorry, I don’t know what it’s called - the only thing I can think of calling it other than rainbow wall is crazy paving but that seems extremely insulting to the masterpiece you’ve created!

theduchessofspork · 29/12/2023 23:18

That’s fabulous!

stemmedroses · 29/12/2023 23:21

Really well done you OP, such a transformation!

I saw one of your other threads ... you should be really proud of yourself. Bet your kids will love it.

Shithole101 · 29/12/2023 23:24

UngratefulOldCabbage · 29/12/2023 22:28

This has made me a bit teary - I'm so proud of you! It looks amazing and they are going to love it. Well done! Not just for doing it but for having the idea of what you wanted to achieve and absolutely smashing it Star

Thank you 💐 I think they will to 🥰

That looks brilliant!

SkalengeckOrSiegbarste · 29/12/2023 23:29

That wall you painted is amazing! Your boys are so lucky!

hot2trotter · 29/12/2023 23:32

How do you cope without wardrobes? My kids have a double wardrobe each, plus a chest of drawers each. I can't imagine not having proper storage for their seemingly endless amount of clothes.

Spaghettieis · 29/12/2023 23:33

Wow it looks amazing, well done! The boys must be thrilled!

Shithole101 · 29/12/2023 23:34

StBrides · 29/12/2023 22:34

Op I am CHEERING for you! What a brilliant transformation - it looks great!

Have been thinking of you and how you got on. That mosaic wall is amazing- did you paint it?

Your boys are going to be blown away.

I utterly love your attitude and humour with mumsnet (and all the advice to move the bed - was one lol) I hope you're bloody proud of yourself - you should be.

Thank you. Yes its painted . And use frog tape. I think it was the in thing a few years Back. It's not really the thing to do now. But i don't care.

I spent 90% of the thread saying I'm not moving the bed 🤣
