Room Makeover 4 February 2008

Give Us a Room, You Get The Goods!

Each week VMK's HOST_Bella selects a lucky player from the Kingdom (at random) for a Room Makeover. HOST_Bella then remakes the room – for free – using items that are donated to the players and they get to keep!

See the results here, including BEFORE and AFTER pics and tips you can use to make better rooms.

This week:

Monki-girl's
Monkey Magic Show

Have you ever got a room and then stood right in the middle of it wondering what to do with it? This was the dilemma facing monki-girl!

She loves a good show and was trying to figure out how to create a room where she could entertain her friends. Since our theme this month is Magic, I suggested she should put on a Magic Show using some of those great new magical items.

BEFORE: Let's make some magic in this empty theater.

We'll start this makeover by making sure this room will be able to handle all the guest coming to the show! Like all good magic shows, we need a queue for guests to line up while they wait to be seated. We need to keep the stage area clear so we used a River Teleporter to take guests to the lower level of the room. Here they can wait by the purple Disneyland Retro Turnstile for monki-girl to seat them.

We blocked off both sections of the queue with gold Velvet Rope Dividers and a couple of blue HKDL Paper Lanterns. Now where should we put our audience? Pink Philharmagic Chairs match the Magic Show Curtains we'll add in a second – we line the Philharmagic Chairs along the back of the room leaving an aisle down the center to make all the chairs accessible.

If only Room Makeover's would magical finish themselves. (Hey, I can dream!)

For those who want dinner and a show, we add a few tables and chairs near the front of the stage! To make room for these we ended up moving our row of Philharmagic Chairs back a few spaces. Madame Leota Tables and Aladdin Flying Carpet Chairs in alternating colors add to the overall look and theme of the room.

Two Magic Show Curtains allow performers to access the stage while a curtain off to the right adds some sparkle and finishes the look. At center stage, a Magic Shop Top Hat Table is ready for the next magician's bunny trick.

Finally, we finish the room with a few more gold Velvet Rope Dividers, a pair of Disneyland Retro Pennypresses, and several Haunted Mansion Candelabras for mood lighting.

AFTER: Tah-dah! Now presenting the magnificient Monki-girl!

See monki-girl's Monkey Magic! You'll be astounded and amazed! Now as Mickey Mouse would say, "On with the show!"
