Ya know, there just isn't that much more to do in my photo studio room makeover. I just can't seem to land the time it takes to get it done lately. But here's where I'm at.
I desired some baseboards but didn't really want standard schmandard. So I picked up some simple chunky 1x4's sanded them down...
... and tried them out. Perfect! This area they'll only be attached with one screw so I can change them out for different ones when the need arises.
I didn't do fancy mitres, just straight cuts. I actually prefer this!
Check out that perfect fit under the heat register!
Something to look at, but not totally distracting from the subject when photographing. I like it!
Next up are the funky pipe curtain rods and gauzy sheet curtains. This one ought to be fun. :)
Crazy... but now I have a few other projects I'll be firing up to cater to some compensated assignments. Will this room EVER get done?!? I should have known better than to actually PLAN something. :)
Have you done better? I hope you bring your progress and reveals over to this weekend's linkup starting Friday night!

ReplyDeleteI am a procrastinator...sometimes I don't even have a vision of what I am going to do till the 12th hour!...they say that is common with creative types...and thats what I am going with!
Hope you sleep well!

Ohh the light in that room! It's gonna be the best photo studio EVER! Great idea on the baseboards, love the simplicity! I'm photographing mine this morning since we're supposed to have sunlight today lol
ReplyDeleteBusy bee!!! You had me in the mood for a complete overhaul of my craft room. Then reality kicked in. It'll have to be small changes, if I can finish those......
ReplyDeletei love love love this studio space already! it will be so bright and so fresh and so clean - i'm soooo jealous!
ReplyDeleteget back to work!
Donna,
ReplyDeletethis is going to be one heck of a room...the curtain rods sound really neat!!! See ya at the party.
Blessings,
Linda
I know what you mean about "interruptions" and I don't have nearly the projects you have. When I was younger, I had the energy and the money but no time. Now that I'm retired, I have the time but no money and no energy! LOL! But I'm making progress because people like you inspire me. I finally finished my kitchen counters after almost 2 weeks! LOL! Of course, I do lots of other things too but still...kitchen counters? But I am making progress and so are you...there used to be a t.v. ad, I think it was Dupont Chemical, that said.. "progress....our most important product"...that's my motto! You go girl! YO\our studio looks great! I actually did baseboards like that in a room in my old farmhouse. I liked it and you're right...easy peasy really! Congrats on your much deserved award too! And I don't even LIKE pointsettias but I do now after what you did with them! Beautiful decor! Thanks for being here!
ReplyDeleteDonna,
ReplyDeleteI am definitely borrowing your curtain rod idea! Its exactly what I've been trying to explain to my husband... now he will have a visual! Thanks!!
Peggy
Can't wait to see the finale!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the baseboards! We used the same idea in our rustic cottage.
ReplyDeleteI've done "cheater baseboards" too. Shhhh . . .
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the pipe curtain rods completed and love that 5 panel door I spotted in one of the pics! Progress is being made. Looks great!
EEEEEEEEEkkkkkkkk!!! How did I miss this post.....Oh pooh I had to go to the grand daughter's basketball game and didn't get in until late. That's what kind of baseboards I grew up with except a little wider. Nothing wrong with those girl, they work. Lookin'
ReplyDeleteGood!!! Congratulations on the win, you deserve it and it doesn't surprise me.
Your decoration at Christmas sure deserved to be 1st place! Love it!
ReplyDeleteIt is so nice to see the progress on your home and the pride you have in all your work.
ReplyDeleteAre you going to leave the metal vent hanging on the wall? Or are you going to surprise us in another post?!!
Congratulations on the win! I'm sure there will be more!
I just did this to my sons bedroom, but I used MDF instead!
