Foyer Plans Thwarted By A Hospital Stay (Plus A Sneak Peek Of My Plan For The Long Bedroom Wall)

Not one of the apparent decisions had been actually doing something for me. I might depart it clean, however once more, that’s an enormous quantity of wall area. I might put three or 4 giant photos, like the dimensions of the chapel image.

I didn’t love that concept as a result of having much more photos that measurement takes away from the specialness of the chapel image.

And, in fact, I might use the opposite 12 photos that I reduce out of the Bible research ebook and make a gallery wall of these on the lengthy wall.

However that doesn’t actually make sense to me since I’ve already pulled the 4 out that had probably the most orange in them and used them on a separate wall.

The extra I considered that wall, the extra I actually wished one thing sudden, freeform, and unframed. And my thoughts instantly went to the birds that I’ve on the wall in the lounge.

I really like these birds, however I’ve at all times wished I might discover a extra outstanding place for them. They appear to get misplaced within the nook of the lounge. Effectively, shifting them from that nook of the lounge the place the partitions are painted so mild they barely distinction with the birds to a darkish teal wall in our bed room will surely give them extra prominence! After all, for an 11-foot wall, I’d want many extra than simply 12 birds.

So I ordered extra. Much more. Maybe I went overboard, however I now have a complete of 48 birds. 😀 Since I didn’t wish to determine the association with the precise ceramic birds, which might have required lots of trial and error with precise nails by means of the grasscloth, I used the ceramic birds as patterns to chop out paper birds that I might tape onto the wall to determine the association. I don’t have the ultimate association but, however right here’s a peak at the place that is heading…

That’s solely 36 birds, and I’ve a complete of 48. I’ve a complete of 16 giant birds — 8 that face left and eight that face proper. And I’ve a complete of 32 small birds — 16 that face left and 16 that face proper.

I’m going to maintain enjoying round with the association till I get it excellent. As a lot as I need the association to be freeform, I additionally wish to take a look at out an association that could be a good oval. My want for symmetry requires that I not less than take a look at out that concept earlier than I choose the ultimate association.

Anyway, I can’t actually do far more till Matt will get out of the hospital. I’d love for that to occur this afternoon. It’s so troublesome to truly get higher in a hospital with them waking you up all all through the evening. The physique wants sleep to heal, however good sleep is one factor that’s just about unimaginable to get at a hospital. However it’s wanting prefer it’ll be tomorrow on the earliest. Oh properly. Perhaps as a substitute of utilizing paper birds and tape, I can use my photograph enhancing software program to provide you with the proper fowl association for my wall whereas we’re caught on the hospital. No less than that’ll give me one thing inventive to do to go the time.
