This week:

IWearTheMoose's
Party in the Forest!

IWearTheMoose was nominated by a bunch of her friends for a Room Makeover! Her friends said she's funny and sweet and always willing to help out. She's a pretty big fan of my weekly makeovers and they said she'd love to have any kind of room as long as it was fun!

I headed into the Kingdom to check out some of her existing rooms to see what kind of themes she likes. I came across a room called "Working!!" and was curious to see just what she was working on. This Empty Dark Ride Guest Room was pretty much empty besides a few scattered Snow Carpets and since they're a bit out of season now, I decided this room would be great for what I had in mind!

BEFORE: Snow? It's almost summer time! It's a wonder these haven't melted yet!

I picked up the Snow Carpets and placed them in another empty room of hers. Since it's our VMK Celebration month, I thought a place to party would be great fun! I had a vision of a clearing near the base of a mountain in the middle of the forest. So I started to lay out my floor plan.

I used black Coffee Table Crates for the base of my mountain and then spent quite a while place PPR Small Islands 1 and 2. I left a blank curvy space on the floor to create a small stream. Then I used ALR BD Forest 1 and 2. This backdrop is great for this room because you can see a small body of water beyond the trees!

TIP: Always mark out your floor plan before decorating but don't be afraid to make small changes as you add the finishing touches!

I had to create my giant mountain base, so I used PPR Rocks Large and Small stacked atop my Coffee Table Crates. Once that was finished, I added PPR Logs in blue and purple to the riverbanks. I changed up the mouth of the river when I added PPR Mermaid Lagoon Waterfalls. I also removed 36 PPR Small Islands to make room for the dance floor, which I made out of nine PPR BR Floor pieces. Now I had to make room for party guests.

Purple Madame Leota Tables surrounded by blue and green Barrel Seats and lit by Haunted Mansion Candelabras and ALR Lighted Trees 1, 2, and 3 added just the right colors and shapes to the party. A few pops of color were added with ALR Glow and Purple Mushrooms.

I completed the river by adding PPR Water Carpets, a PPR Neverland Rainbow, and a few PPR Blue Plants. PPR Tic Toc wanted to come and hang out at the party, too, and with this river nicely dressed up, he was more than willing to chill for a while!

AFTER: I'm burning up the dance floor!

It's a month of celebration so come celebrate with IWearTheMoose! I'm off to find our final makeover candidate.

See ya real soon!
