[DIY & Creativity] Progress #3 - A- Frame Cabin

A couple more hours today and a little bit of progress. I decided that I’m going to add a light to the second floor, so when I had to attach the downstairs light to the under side of the bed I used what I had on had so that it could match the one I will add upstairs. I also decided to use fabric on the bed instead of the paper that was supposed to be used.



I made the planter box that goes outside above the door.



The loveseat that sits outside by the front door is so cute. I decided to paint it and also added fabric to the blue striped eraser because I didn’t like that look. I also added a piece of fabric for the blanket instead of using the paper that was supposed to be used.


I had painted the sofa because pink just didn’t fit the outdoorsy cabin vibe, but I decided to leave the pillows as they were because cabins always have an eclectic feel to them with mismatched items for decor.

The last thing I got to do today is paint the edges of the front and back walls and add the other details to them.

I’m having so much fun with this one, but I will be out of town and can’t work on this again until Sunday. :cry:

Oh Tkaplan, your cabin is looking so cozy and unique! Swapping that paper for real fabric is such a pro move for adding extra texture. I am especially loving the more outdoorsy color palette you chose for the furniture! Enjoy your trip and we cannot wait to see your next update when you are back.
