It's Done!

     I finished the roombox and took it to its new home.

     Trying to hide the ceiling wire didn't work out like I planned, because I put tape over the connected wires and made it  too bulky to fit into the groove on the side. 

         I wanted to keep the wire for the chandelier long enough so I could lift the top off if I needed too.

You can see the wire on the left side.

I am so glad I finally

 finished 

at least one of

 my

 mini projects!

Getting it Finished!

 I finally cut my trim for the top and bottom of the roombox. I always have a time cutting mitered corners; this was no exception. So I had to perfect them with a little bit of spackle. I glued them down and gave them a couple coats of white paint.

I made a groove in the top for the chandelier wire which came up through the ceiling. Added some spackle, sanded  it smooth then painted.

Once I got the chandelier hung, I could solder the wires to the tape wire. This was my first time with the soldering iron (other than the class) so I was excited to get it working.  I wound up having to take my original attempt apart cause the main cord was to close to the edge so I moved all the wires up.

When I was sure my lights were working I made a cover for the wiring.

Added a piece of Black felt to the bottom before I put everything in place.

The room needed a Party sign!

Recovered the chairs in AKA Green!
