The cabin includes a sleeping loft, accessed by a ladder. "I installed batts of insulation, then used an electric stapler to attach Tyvek to the rafters," Foster says, describing the tented ceiling. "I started from the bottom up. It got easier the higher I went, because I could just slide the batts into the Tyvek 'pockets.' Then, I attached a bolt of Walmart lace with the electric stapler along the rafters. Bada bing."
Nothing takes a child's room from mundane to magical like a tented ceiling. Who wouldn't want to snuggle up in a cozy nook like this one? This white is beautiful for a little girl, but intermixing a colored fabric would be fun too. For an adult room, there's nothing more romantic that layers of tented fabric. It makes even a small space feel open and airy.
Step 4: Define Your LimitsIf there are things that completely horrify you, now is your chance to exercise your veto power. The point here is to avoid major conflicts down the road, not to pick a fight now. So stick with the few things that really are deal breakers for you, and ask your partner to do the same. If your partner claims to hate some of your favorite looks, don't worry. In step 9 you'll have a chance to bring back a little of what you love, even if your partner doesn't get it.
