DIY Week 16

DIY Week 16

This Week:

This week we made major headway on the room! Finally!!! Yay!

Tuesday: We worked for almost an hour and a half to hang the white board back in the wall. It literally took a village to do it! Sarah and I couldn't do it alone, clearly. So in a matter of ten minutes we had several people from the swim team and half of the boys water polo team in the room directing us and telling us what to do (and criticizing how lame we were at doing construction work). We learned a lot about how to drill things in to walls. You need a drill bit...now i know what that is :) yay! DIY!

 Thursday: We finally got curtains up!!! They are navy blue with black curtain rods! It was much easier to put up since we knew how to put holes in the wall already from Tuesday. I have to say...the rooms looking pretty fancy :)

Friday: I brought all of the picture frames, that I painted black, back to the school. It was super hot in the room and we were afraid that the picture frames (that had to be taped onto the wall) would fall. So far so good...we will find out on Monday how they held up. Sarah and Connor also put the shelves back up with the projector.
Next Week:
Next week we will finish hanging pictures, vacuum the floor, and put the couch covers on the couches. We will stage the room and make sure it is looking spick and span for the big reveal on Wednesday!!!
