VMK Room Makeover

This week:

RoyalFushiaMask's
Leota Séance Room

RoyalFushiaMask was busy contemplating her next decorating decision when I took a seat in her room. He favorite attraction, she told me, is the Haunted Mansion and her favorite scene is the Séance Room, home to everyone's favorite spectral speaker, Madame Leota.

RoyalFushiaMask wanted to design a room that featured Madame Leota's Crystal Ball but also wanted to include a lot of purple. Hmmm. This sounds like a job for HOST_Bella! Roommakover powers activate!


BEFORE:

Our first step was to take a good look at what she already had in the room and how that might work with our new design. The Magic Show Blocks that RoyalFushiaMask had already placed in the room were great but needed to be turned to show off the purple curtain and stars.

Creating a dozen columns would allow guests to enter freely while adding a lot of color to the room – if we had placed the blocks right next to each other, it would have blocked the entrance and hid the purple curtains

Now it's time to decorate the floor. Even though this is a Haunted Mansion room, we decided to use a lot of Magic Show items, like the Magic Show Carpets we used to create a really fun design.


TIP: Don't be afraid to use items from other themes to enhance your rooms.

We created six séance stations using Madame Leota Tables, Crysal Balls and Books. Some Haunted Mansion Rocking Chairs and Candelabras were also placed in the room, all in a perfect shade of purple. Every room should have a centerpiece, we made sure to highlight one table by placing it right in the middle of the room. To add a bit more lighting, we added Hong Kong Paper Lanterns in magenta along the sides of the rooms.


AFTER: The spirits are assembling for a swinging wake!

Now with our room colete it was time for a lively party with some silly spooks! Be sure to join RoyalFushiaMask in her Madam Leota Séance Room! (You never know what just might be conjured up!)

Time for me to vanish back into the Kingdom!
