Test Shots!
My next project is the Laurent family home. It will be the
scene of many other posts, so I need to get it right. Since
KiKi and her husband Terrence are from tropical climates,
KiK from Rouba and Terrence from St, Malcolm, their home
needs to have a tropical feel.
I am still working on the Ancestor's room also but now I am
taking some test shot of the family room. It is the hub
of the Laurent family home and it is a high traffic area. It
has to be big enough for many of the family members to
be in it at one time. The Laurents have grown children living
with them. This is a part of both their cultures to do so.
So there are many adults
living in the house.
KiKi loves earth tones and that is reflected in many areas of
the house. When the family room is finished I will introduce
other members of the family that haven't made the blog yet.
I am post these shot for feed back. I want to know what
you think? How large should the room be? What do you
think of the colors? Does it need something else in it?
I got this shelve and the rust vase at my favorite thrift store
for 4.oo total. I knew they would go well with the look.
Unforturnately I tried to put furniture polish on it to close to
the time I was taking pictures. once it dries it should all be an
even tone. Next time I will use a pait brush to do it. It will go
on more even that way. Right now there ar light and dark
areas.
A little seating area.
African elephant.
Morroccan sofa.
Roubian chests and honey wine pot.
Gardening hat. Nothing here is permanent. The pillows will
be sewn when I am sure they are staying.

African zebra.
I purchase this zebra for the Laurent home but my husband
thinks that it should be for him. The zebra commentates
Dancing with the Stars and American Idol (I don't know
about that man sometimes!)
