    waiting to know gender still!!!!
  • Katty, You will need approx about 1.5 - 2 gallons of paint for that room. The total square footage of the room is 400SF. However, It differs sometimes from a product to another. If the wall is already primed, then 1.5 should be enough. Check out Lowes and Home Depot for some neat looking wall stickers. Target has a good collection of wall murals too. I recently decorated a kids room and applied a Spiderman sticker to a wall.I bought my sticker from Roomate.com for more ideas. Pottery barn has some amazing color combinations you would never think about. Also see this article written by Linda Merril - How to pick a paint color. Best of Luck for the room decor, Can't wait to see the progress!
