Good news! Another major project for my bedroom revamp has been finished! wooohooo!
PROJECT: SQUARE FRAMES
I wanted to do something to cause more visual interest on the most visible wall in my room. I bought some grey contrasting paint, sketched out what I wanted to get measurements and went to work.
My Process:
Final Product:
Final Product:
So as you can see from above, I drew out my dimensions & how I wanted everything to look. Remember my inspiration for this? Then drew squares with pencil and made my own stencil out of styrene for the rounded edges. Then I just went to work! Many things still need to be done...like magic erase all the pencil marks of the wall, do a little touch ups and certainly buy a new lamp. However, i'm liking how things are coming along! Are you? Also partially shown is my new duvet cover & decorative pillows. yay!
The Breakdown

"My friend Austriana's."
"It's pretty!"
Way to go, coach! You got even my tomboy sister to approve your design! :)
