My 19-year old daughter Jamie and I decided to switch rooms. One, because change is good every now and then. Two, because I spend so little time in my room, it’s sole purpose being for sleeping a few hours every night. I literally live in my studio. Jamie, on the other hand, has her computer in her room.

Three, my hidden agenda: I love to paint walls. Housekeeping is not #1 on my list, but I do love the smell of clean. And painting forces one to clean. So for the past 10 days Jamie and I have been busy sorting out and reducing clothes and all sorts of bedroom and bathroom items, painting, washing windows and shades, scrubbing and waxing floors. I’m afraid I have been somewhat of a traditionalist when it comes to home decor, so I wanted to try something new and — for me — bold. Her’e a “before” shot of my bedroom:
