I wanted to share the specifics regarding the Attic Music and Library Room after a quick visit, addressing common queries about room transformations.
The wall paint required about 1 gallon of a custom mix, resembling Benjamin Moore’s Acadia White, costing $0 as it was already in my paint reserve.
The flooring uses “Panther” from General Paint, also at no cost because it was available in my existing paint stock.
For priming, I used Kilz Oil Base Low Odour Primer from Home Depot for $28.97.
A 6 x 9 ft “Value Rug” was acquired at Home Depot for $39.00.
Two melamine shelving units, intended for blanket storage, were purchased from Home Depot for $30.76.
We enhanced the look by incorporating stained wood trim onto the fronts.
Two brackets for the closet shelf and hanging rod are from Home Depot for $9.98, though these haven't been put up or photographed yet.
The curtain rod, sourced from Home Depot, cost $14.97.
The window coverings were custom-sewn using a painter’s drop cloth and fabric I already possessed.
The grand total for all acquisitions amounted to $123.68.
Since everything was bought at Home Depot, I used my $50.00 gift card, which I won through One Project Closer’s contest, bringing the final cost down to $73.68.
