*Note: Anything in this plan is subject to change, delay, or omission. Also things can be added to the plan. We're working with a nearly-6-year-old girl so who knows what may happen, we may have to add some Power Rangers features as well.
Let's take a look at the closet side of the room:
- Fully demo closet
- Put up drywall in closet, tape and mud seams/screws
- Add casing to closet opening, leaving enough room for doors one day
- Add closet shelf all the way across & down one side for kid stuff, hanging rod on left for clothes
- Sew curtain for closet
- Move phone & wireless router
- Prime and paint bookshelf (it's in the upstairs kid room right now unpainted)
- Find a full-length mirror for behind the door
- Create surf related art
Let's take a look at the window side:
- Baseboards throughout the room
- Repaint her bed and make a few repairs so it's easier to change sheets
- Update headboard for her beachy theme (making it non-permanent)
- Find new bedding (I think we already found it!)
- Shades, curtains and maybe valances or cornices
- Gussy up a bulletin board so she can display her favorite artwork
- Repaint dressers and find new hardware
- Find area rug - needs to work w/the color scheme and be inexpensive (it'll probably get trashed)
- We're considering some crown molding to give the room a polished look
- Paint the entire room a new shade of blue - something less intense
And there it is! A plan of action - the challenge will be to see whether we can get her in there before school starts after Labor Day - I think we can. I'll keep everyone posted as we progress.
