room-project part 2

as the part1 kept getting pushed back due to my 60hrs-week, here is part 2:

the red dot is where i signed my nick, closeup:

edges will look LOT better when i take the masking tape off (after paint dries up) and then i will touch rest of the edges with fine-brush…

looks hideous for some ppl in family, and VERY few like it.. but its matching perfectly for me and my work-timings.. second-coat worked great for the blocking of light, and its absorbing a lot of heat as well ..

Re: room-project part 2

You took this picture right now? about 2 pm? If yeah, then good job because it’s blocking all the light :k: So you had to paint it twice. And yeah, I knew not too many desi elders would approve of it :cb:

So this is basically black paint with a brush and then white designs with another brush?

Re: room-project part 2

yup.. pic was taken at bright 2pm .. and as u can see, the light bulb's light is the DOMINATING light in the room ..

the first and second (black) coats were done with a bigger roller.. a corner-roller (2" wide) is also used for edges, which were protected with a line of masking-tape on the white-wooden paint to protect/fine the edges...

final round would be to take off that masking tape and touch the edges with a brush.. as brush CANT be replaced with ANY kind of roller..

the pattern was made with another project-roller, had embossed 'shaheen scout' design on it .. paint was mixed with gray and existing black ...

there is also an invisible-effect on it, in black light, the glass will shine with green background, and with blue it will say: YOU R NOT ALONE (on left glass) and italic FAIZY on the right window..

but brother has my uv-black light in his room .. i just painted that invisible effect so when i EVENTUALLY do my walls, i will get a nice installation done for the black light..

Re: room-project part 2

Faizy looking good, now you can paint your room kind of gray/silverish and it will look even prettier...

Re: room-project part 2

I dun understand why you need the windows painted black??

Im so used to sleeping during the day that the light doesnt bother me at all.
I have the blinds shut and thats all the protection I have from the light.

Its the noise that Kills me.
All that banging and whizzing and running and shouting that ppl do during the daytime is annoying.

They should be considerate of ppl who are sleeping.
So after spending endless days lying awake, i bought a very noisy fan from one of those garage sales.
Its noise is enough to block out all the noises while it sorta hums and i sleep to its hummmmmmmmm

Re: room-project part 2

faizy...you did a good job !!! i like the flowers ;)

Re: room-project part 2

ahhhhhhhhh if only someone would paint here too.

Re: room-project part 2

:cb: ahhmm..good stuff faizy… :smiley:
the glow in the dark stuff sounds cool though…

Re: room-project part 2

looks much better than your original pics but you know how us women are - it doesn’t please our aesthetic nature :bummer:

Re: room-project part 2

yup. i understand .. women will be women, and men will be jackasses, and i can live with that :wink: .. so no worries…

legal: yar its just noise isnt a problem .. but i must have a REALLY dark room unless i cant fall in the ‘deep’ sleep where body heals the most.. (kachi neend rahti hay nahi to)

thus the black…
