week six10/25/2020 I got to start on a piece for the room that is going to hang above the bed this week. Before we started this project, there were two pictures that were hanging above the bed. The pictures were fine and I didn't really have a problem with them except that they didn't really match the new theme of the room. I decided that I wanted to make a decor piece out of wood that looked something like a wood pallet that I could hang on the wall. I didn’t get to finish it but once I do, I am going to paint it and distress it.

week five10/18/2020 I did not get to go over to my cousin’s house this week because I was too busy working on other projects for my AP class. I did work for a while trying to plan out everything I still need and want to get and where everything will be once the room is finished. Originally, I wanted to put floating shelves up on at least one of the walls. Looking at the layout of the room now, I don’t really want to do that and I want to put corner shelves going up a bare wall instead. I hope to make the shelves myself so I can paint it how I want and also so I can distress the wood. I would like to get started on this soon.

week four10/11/2020 This week, I got to go over to my cousins house on Sunday to work on my project. A couple weeks ago I got some frames from Hobby Lobby for a photo collage that I wanted to do in the room. I decided that I wanted to use all black and white photos so my cousin and I went through a bunch of her old pictures that she had of her and her family when she was a child. I picked out some good photos and I also went through my camera roll on my phone and picked out some cool pictures and filtered them to be black and white to match the other ones. I definitely picked out more pictures than I needed to so I need to get some more frames for the picture collage.

week three10/4/2020 I didn’t actually get to go over and work on the room this week because I was really busy but I did plan for next week. Last week I went to Hobby Lobby and got some things for the room including some vintage picture frames. My cousin said that she had a lot of pictures that I could use for the collage was we are going to be putting together. I am going to use a mix of black and white photos and regular color photos. We ordered a navy blue bed skirt and I want to get some navy blue curtains to match it. I also spent some time on amazon and other shopping websites looking for different pieces to add to the room. |
