Interior Design – Master Bedroom and Bath Project

One of the classes that I have this semester is an Introduction into Interior Design. For this class I have two main projects. The first is to design a Master Bedroom and Bath. The second is to design a Kitchen. I’m not really that great when it comes to Interior Design, I’ve always been better with clothes. My roomie, Brittany, loves Interior Design and has a real talent for it, so she was really excited when I told her about these projects.

So the basic requirements was to have a floorplan that had a minimum of 20 linear feet of closet space, a bedroom that had a 60″ turnaround space, and a barrier free bathroom with a 60″ turnaround space as well. As for how the floorplan was laid out that is where the creative juices are supposed to start flowing.

Once the floorplan was finished now you needed furniture. The required furniture included a bed, nightstand, dresser with mirror, and any other storage furniture that we desired.

Now we have furniture and a floorplan it’s time to decorate with paint, wallpaper, hardwood flooring, fabric for the bed, fabric for the window treatments, bathroom paint, bathroom cabinet paint, and bathroom flooring.

After everything is compiled together than we had to present it all together on a materials board in order to “sell” our ideas. Overall this was a really fun project, but had a bit of a technical side as well. A lot of precision to the floorplan and making sure everything was accurate. Honestly though I can’t wait to start working on the Kitchen project, although that has a lot more code and restrictions to keep in mind when designer the kitchen floorplan.

And here is the final project….

Floorplan:

Materials Board:

The bathroom flooring (I), paint (A3), and cabinet paint (J):

Time Travel at its best….Back to the 80′s

So here at LU every semester we have an event called Coffeehouse. Coffeehouse is a time for students to sing and dance, basically show off their talent. Normally during the Fall semester the theme is Christmas, so all the songs are Christmas songs. However, the Spring semester this year was the 80′s. For anyone that doesn’t know I love the 80′s, especially the music! So for me this was the coolest thing I had heard since coming here. A night of 80′s music and we got to dress up like we were from the 80′s!! Score!!

Funny thing is that my roomies had to borrow clothes from my closet and were asking how or what to wear. I told you I loved the 80′s right?

I had a blast!! I was dancing around like a dork and walking to Coffeehouse playing Journey’s Separate Ways from my phone. People were looking at me like I had lost it, but at that moment I didn’t care I was having way too much fun.

Although I will say this I was a bit disappointed that they were lacking in the music department. They lacked any 80′s classic rock, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, Pat Benatar, A-HA, and had very little Micheal Jackson.

So I thought I would share some pictures from that night :)

Me dressed up and hair done. All ready to rock out to the 80′s :)

Me and my peeps all ready for the 80′s :)

 

Welcome :)

What’s up! So some how you have found your way to my blog…or maybe no one has and I am just rambling on and on to no one. Either way I don’t care :p

So I thought I would just give a heads up to what this blog is and what exactly you are getting yourself into…..

Basically this is going to be a place where I can express myself through fashion, music, interior design, family, friends, and college life. So basically my life. :) I will do posts on just life, some on fashion, some on music, on friends, etc. I warn you though my life is not exciting…I mean come on I am a poor college kid :p

So if for some reason you are still here and want to continue reading I say thank you, but if you have already left well then good-bye.
