finish my room

So far i need to…
- Put up new wallpaper.
- Place new laminate flooring.
- Buy a new sofabed and get rid of my old bed.
- Buy new canvas pictures and place those
- Buy new Lampshade

This is going to be fun. :P

Want to finish organize my room in 60 days.

Slow and steady…and trying to get rid of things…

Does anyone know where to get flokati or shag rugs on sale?

Also, eventually I want to cut up magazines and make a really cool, artsy collage. I also want to fill a whole wall with posters from different concerts. I need a desk chair, too.

I got a desk lamp, a framed audrey hepburn poster, and put up my cork boards. Now I just need to get curtains and put corkboard behind my world map.

look at decorating books

well right now im in the process of changing rooms. now all i have to do is paint, get new bedding, and move everything else in. im going with a beach theme. i have been wanting to do this for a while.

I’ve got paint up on my walls and the new furniture is moved in. The things I need to do now consist mostly of putting in a phone jack and a TV hookup, getting a new door, putting up beaded curtains in the closet, getting new bedsheets, getting a new light fixture, and arranging everything the way I want it. The vanity’s already a mess. XD

My room before I started to renovate it was a mess. So I tore down all my posters and shirts and other junk on my walls, and started to paint it. I think I might finish painting today, but now I have to clean up all the other crap on the floor too and put furniture in it. A good time.

I always get the urge to ‘Rip it up and Start Again’, i suppose i just always need a million projects to work on. So pretty much the day after my exams finished, i decided to create some new stress. I dismantled all the furniture in my room and made plans to build loads of shelves in my room. I’ve ammassed loads of books recently, i seem to buy/find/steal about 20 a month, I read loads, i love it. Just the other week i got a parcel from Little Type containing Dr Franks new book “King Dork”. And the new Aaron Cometbus mini-novel “I wish there was something to quit”. Anyway, thats just an example, they are both great books. Buy em.

So anyway, my room, so far my progress is slow, i get distracted easily. I have cleaned the mould off most of the walls. My house has a damp problem, so i kinda just have to live with it, not having enough money to fix it all up and everything. Now i just need to fins some wood to make the bookshelves out of. I’m hoping i’ll just run into about eight 2 metre lengths of decent wood to use. but i suppose i’ll just have to buy some. Anyway, its kinda fun work, because i keep unearthing things I had forgotten about, like train tickets to weird places, or signs stolen off posh golf courses.

But yeah, i’ll hopefully have it all finished before i go to south africa in a few weeks (more on that later). Then i can sit in my newly furnished and uncluttered room (yeah right) reading books in the wicker chair that i swear is about 50 years old.
