![]() ![]() Since we were doing two different colors on the walls here, we ran into an interesting issue – it seemed like kind of a pain to fully clean out the Sidekick and refill it for just one little wall, but I’m so spoiled by it at this point that I can’t imagine painting with a regular old roller (I know, but I get to be picky if I want). I used my sidekick to paint the three main walls in Jackson’s room – we used Behr’s Coliseum Marble for the main color in the room. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I will never paint another room without using this thing. That’s not the case with Wagner’s version – I’ve used this thing in three different rooms so far and it’s worked just as well as the first time every single time I’ve pulled it out. One thing I’ve heard often from people who have tried similar types of tools in the past is that they feel like they’re essentially one-time-use tools because of how hard they are to clean. I showed off how much I love this little guy a while back when we talked about painting our master bedroom and the living room, so I was excited to bust it out and try it again. The first tool I used was the Wagner Smart Sidekick Power Roller. I thought it would be fun to highlight a few of the different tools that I use to paint as we go through this project, because over the years I’ve gathered a few things that make me hate painting a lot less – in fact, I don’t really even dread it at all now that I’ve got these babies in my arsenal! PAINTING TOOLS I USED The first thing we had to do before we could even think about getting started on the built-in shelves was get the room painted. Obviously, the room as a whole isn’t finished – but since I promised to take you along on the entire journey of designing this room step-by-step, I wanted to show you where we’re actually at right now and take a look at what the next steps will be.

As a reminder, here’s what Jackson’s room looked like the last time you saw it…Īre you ready for the big reveal of how it’s looking today? ![]() ![]() If you don’t know what I’m talking about and want to get caught up, check out this post for the initial planning stages of Jackson’s bedroom, and this post for the mood board and the general direction we’re aiming to go in here.Īfter hours of work and a bit of blood, sweat, and tears (listen, when a pregnant lady is involved there are always tears, right?!), we’ve finally finished this monstrous project, and I’m so (SO SO) happy with how it turned out. This project has been on our minds for several months now, and I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am to call it finished! If you’ve been following along as we’ve planned the renovations for Jackson’s bedroom, then you’ll know that the biggest (and most daunting) part of the entire process is that we decided to build a giant set of DIY built in shelves into the back of his room with bookcases, toy storage, and a bed. Have a room that needs some organizational help? Here’s a great solution! This easy built-in bed and DIY built-in shelves provide tons of storage and look gorgeous to boot. ![]()
