UPDATE: APARTMENT PROJECT

Hey Everybody,

Time for the next update. So last time we saw the loft having a new bed, and now it has new windows. I found the perfect acrylic sheeting to use for the windows that kept in line with the image I had of a warehouse loft apartment.

This is fluorescent lighting fixture acrylic. I picked this 4' x 3' foot sheet up for $12. It is nice to work with. Just measure, score with a knife, and snap.

Then I simply took an enamel paint pen and painted the lines between the panes and inserted them into the picture frames I am using for the window frames.

So the windows are now done. Next up is starting to make the place look more lived in and get rid of some of that empty space. The bedroom needs a nightstand, some art on the walls, and more stuff on the bookshelf.

More to come... Thanks for following.
