Memories

One of my goals for this project includes making a wall of memories. So far what I've been mainly working on is cleaning my room so it will be nice and tidy for the future when I'm ready to paint. But as I've been sifting through different bins and drawers I've come across many items that trigger memories of the past. Whether its photos, notes, schoolwork, or an old yearbook, I tend to stop and reminisce on the memory. The process of cleaning my room has been taking even longer, since I didn't think this would happen as often as it has.
I had the idea of making a photo wall and wasn't quite sure on how I was going to execute it. Now that I've been coming across many items that bring back great memories, I decided instead of just a photo wall it would be a wall of memories. My original thought was to just find random photos and do the typical teenage "tumblr room decor" but I've changed that thought into childhood photos and favourite memories that will be hung up.
When researching on different decor ideas I came across many different examples. One photo that I found that I think fits the idea for my room I have in mind is perfect. It'll display the photos and memories perfectly and just the way I would like.

Beginning the Project

As stated in my blog description, for the course of this semester I will be renovating my bedroom. It seems like such a simple thing, all you need to do is paint it, add decorations, move furniture, but the list does go on. I've been waiting quite some time to finally get the chance to redo my room, and now that I have the opportunity I would like to have a personal twist to it.
For the early stages of my project it will include a lot of cleaning, and getting rid of items I no longer need that take up space. I started this task over the weekend and over the course of a few hours I managed to get rid of 2 shopping bags of unwanted items, and organize most of my vanity. Once I'm near done cleaning I will start making my decorations, paintings, pictures, and picking a bible verse.

What I Plan To Do:
- repaint my walls
- a multi canvas painting
- a memory wall with pictures
- choose a bible verse that will go across my wall
