A 1928 Milwaukee bungalow bedroom felt worn and attic-like, with beige carpet, dated wood trim, a blue accent wall, and a clunky ceiling fan. The renovation began with the room’s only window frame, which had been repeatedly painted and was peeling. The paint was stripped, the surrounding drywall was cleaned and finished with fresh mud and an L-bead, and the bare wood was stained. Returning the window to its original state changed the room’s feel and helped it blend with the rest of the house. A fresh coat of Sherwin-Williams Snowbound paint was added to brighten the space.
"The late 1920s home's bedroom had worn beige carpet, wood trim, a blue accent wall, and a clunky ceiling fan that distracted from its original character. To Maudie and Ronnie, "the bedroom felt more like an attic than a bedroom" - which just wouldn't work in a home they wanted to easily enjoy every day with a comfortable and functional style."
"The first thing Maudie and Ronnie tackled was the room's only window frame. "The lone window in the room had been painted over numerous times, and the paint was peeling," Maudie says. The couple stripped the paint, cleaned up the surrounding drywall with fresh mud and an L-bead, and once they reached the bare wood, they added a new coat of stain."
""Restoring the window to its original state ended up being one of our favorite parts of the project," Maudie describes. "It completely changed the feel of the room and helped it blend more naturally with the rest of the house." Maudie and Ronnie also gave the room a fresh coat of Sherwin-Williams' Snowbound paint to brighten the space sin"
