In October, I set out to transform my room to create an inviting atmosphere. I couldn’t paint my walls, so instead I painted sheets of A3 and tacked them to my wall. As my walls are filling up, the change to the room is incredible.
Things I have learned from this project:
- Side benefit #7: Painting is a great way to relax, and at the same time exercise the creative side of the brain.
- Bigger Picture #2: I wanted to learn how to paint. Having a bigger purpose of “transforming my room” gave me the motivation I needed.
- Insight #1: It would have been easy to say, “I don’t like my room, but there is nothing I can do about it”. Instead, being open to possibility allowed for a creative, fun way around my constraints.
