Renovation: Bedroom!

So yesterday I finally got down to cleaning the heap of papery mess in my room, and today my mother and I finally painted my room. It looks fabulous! Before it was a really closing, dark sea blues. By that I mean it faded from dark blue on the bottom to light blue on the top/ceiling. The color and work done was beautiful, but after what seems like 6 years of having it like that, and growing a little more, I'm ready for change. The new color is a lot more sophisticated and open. It's a beige/brown, really light color. It opens up my room so much more, I absolutely love it. Right now my room is covered in plastic so I'm going to sleep on the couch for the night.
I graduate in 4 days! I can't wait.

So the plans I have for my room are as follows:
  • Get a curtain of some sort to work as a cover/door for my closet
  • Take out the gross dirty washed out blue carpet and replace it with bamboo hardwood flooring [what we have in the rest of the house]
  • Create the following
    - bookshelf for behind my bed acting as a headboard
    - cushion for the side of my bed/the wall acting as a back of a couch or seat
    - craft shelfing system for all of my supplies and future supplies (I'm most excited for this) + a little section for my school books
    - a craft table!!! with some storage
    - an embellishment rack [almost like a spice rack ..]
  • Buy a really soft rug for under the table, I like to create sitting closer to the floor. I feel more at peace when I'm closer to the earth, idk why. Hahah, but I do love being in planes!
  • Put everything in it's rightful place!!
I have a wishlist of things I'd like to buy. I may put it on here, so I can progressively check it off, and have a place that doesn't erase or get recycled, ha.

Well, I may be back with photos later! :)
