Finally: Operation Home Improvement

After a 6 month hiatus of doing any work on the condo, I broke that streak with a vengeance this weekend. I purchased a new dresser (Art Deco style).

I took a series of measurements to see if the new dresser could fit in the corner of my room, as it stands currently that space is not being used (dead space). The angles of putting a dresser in that space did not work out, so in lieu of angling the new dresser I thought of re orientating the bed room entirely.

When I first moved in the bed room looked like this:

 It was front centered, thus if you were looking in at the bed room, the bed was facing you. As I expand my furniture collection more room was demanded. Since I put in the roller shades a year ago, the two shades in my room are hardly ever opened. So, I decided to place the bed against the window to take advantage of the space, the dress will go under the 'Waiting-Watching-Dream' poster sequence.
(Ignore the cat). The orientation of the room has changed. I'll post full photos once the new dresser is placed.

My lovely GF, Jessica helped me put a 5th coat of paint on the red wall today. It finally looks complete and finished.

Notice the lack of roller streaks. Gaze upon this mere mortals and despair!
