    Toy Box: Finally Done!

    I finally finished the toy box for the super hero’s bedroom. Honestly, under normal circumstances, it can be done in a day. In a few hours, really…But that isn’t the point. The point is, I finished, and I am fairly pleased with the way that it turned out.

    These pictures were taken after the first coat of the Mythic Paint in Seaside Reflections. Its the same color that I used on the frame of the super hero’s bed.

    I think I would rather spend the money to buy the ones from the Land of Nod than build another one. Otherwise, I would want to invest in a rotary tool so that I can make mine prettier.

    Considering that this was my first build, and I did learn quite a few things from it, I’m sure that if I do decide to build another one, it will no doubt be much better.

    I planned for this to be placed in the closet, and maybe eventually it will end up there, but for now, it sits beside the bed. Everything in this picture will be moved soon though. It is a tiny room, but this layout really bothers me. I hate the bed in front of the window.

    Big, deep sigh. Slowly but surely, things are beginning to come together though.

    Talk to you in the next one!
