Hi John,
It was fun to decorate your room last month. I share a room with my brother.
We want to decorate it too. Can you help us?
Right now, the walls are blue. There are cute animals on them, but the animals look too young for us. We want to cover the animals and paint the walls light green. What do you think about the colour?
On Sunday, we can meet at the paint shop near the shopping centre and choose the paint together. Then we can paint the room with my brother. I loved the brushes we used for your room. Can you bring them?
After painting, could you help choose some photos to hang on the walls?
Let me know what you think.
Best,
Zhang Peng
