This is our "other" spare bedroom -- our future nursery. The walls looked this way when we moved in five years ago. At the time we thought, "Ohh, this would make such a cute baby room someday!" Now, I'm reallyreally torn about keeping these chocolate covered creatures of the walls of my little beans bedroom. Aren't they kind of creepy? Or are they cute? What do you think? Keep 'em or dump 'em? (Hubs still likes them. I think he just doesn't want to paint. My big issue is that they aren't really calming.
