What's new with me
is decorating our apartment. I can't go
overboard but painting and recovering furniture will change up any room cheap.
I did this a few
months ago on our living room wall. I
love the graphic. I drew the image and
projected it on the wall to trace. Then
I painted around it.
So last month
Richard couldn't take sharing an office anymore and moved my stuff out of our
mega huge closet to make into his space.
We hung up curtains, added space invaders wall decals, pictures, and now
it looks like a real office space.
I was left with a
disaster in my office space. I
reorganized, got a new bookshelf, and moved stuff around to make it work. Last week I finished painting my main
wall. I painted the base a pretty
antique yellow then stenciled my own graphic on it in black. Then I hung a row of cork along the whole mid
of the wall for hanging stuff. The cork
was flooring from my former job. They
were going to throw it out so I took it home to use. Richard installed a light from Ikea because I
didn't have enough lighting in the room.
Here's my new
office space. On the far right Richard
was installing some shelves. They are up
now. I love my office. Really love!
When I finished I
noticed the bench to my loom was looking drab.
So I screen printed the same stencil I used for the wall in yellow on
some black linen. Then I recovered my
bench.
What I found under
the bench was some horrible green vinyl and nasty foam.
I put new foam,
batting, and the fabric I printed on it.
It's so pretty now.
My cat Tabitha has
claimed it as her bench.
I also took an old
microwave cart my mom gave me and repainted it.
Cheers,
Kyle
