One Room Challenge - Week 4: Straight Lines and Crossed Eyes

 I totally thought I was 20 something when I started this challenge.  I mean, I was just celebrating my 21st Birth.. no nevermind.   I'm 40 something.  This week was an obvious reminder that I should scale back on physical labor or resign to hiring out.  

So what did I get done this week?  Some floors.  Ok, ok, you're disappointed!!  I know, I am too.  My big public project is now complete and I have caught up with my clients.  So the next few weeks should prove fruitful.  

I taped until I couldn't tape anymore.  The border and the interior border are now done...hmmmm, looking sparse in the center, but I will be adding some design in the center this week.  I promise. 

I'm really digging the border around the room, highlighting the nook.  I'm ready to play basketball, where's my hoop?

It makes some really beat floors look a little more put together!

I'm thinking of putting the little day bed in the nook, it will fit nicely.  Maybe build a small platform with bun feet and some decorative trim?  

The bookcases deserve this look, don't you agree?

I also will be adding lighting, possibly painting the doors black and painting the low bookcases and interior of the big bookcases with the spectacular green color.  I really can't wait..........to go to bed!  

Head over to the One Room Challenge page and cheer on the other participants!
