Elegant Bedroom/Sitting Room
With Whitledge Burgess

Monday November 1 through Thursday November 4, 9:00AM - 4:30PM

$895

Join us for the creation of an elegant Bedroom/Sitting Room.

The left side of this roombox is a sunken sitting room featuring hardwood flooring, painted recessed paneling, fireplace, coffered ceiling, and two full height bookcases that create a niche perfect for a recessed sofa. There's also an open doorway revealing a glimpse of a hallway.

The right side of this roombox is the bedroom area featuring room enough for a queen size bed. Finished with carpeting and wallpaper, it also has an "exterior" window overlooking the garden.

Each student will have the option to create this room setting with either masculine or feminine finishes supplied by Whitledge-Burgess.

During the first two days, students will be instructed in the techniques required to complete all of the architectural aspects of this interior. The third day will be devoted to electrification and finishing. The fourth day will be a rare opportunity to create and install pleated drapery panels with valance for the bedroom window. The entire setting will be installed in an unfinished box, allowing each student to customize their own exterior and frame.

As with all of our workshops, all materials will be provided to create the room as photographed. Items not included: chandelier, wall sconces, furniture, and accessories.

This workshop will require pre-class assignments as well as a basic toolbox including a cutting mat, an X-acto knife and blades, a scissor miter cutter with sharp blade, a metal miter box with tall sides and sharp, fine blade saw, a pair small sharp scissors, a corkbacked ruler, a mechanical pencil, a standard size hammer, phillips screwdriver, needlenose pliers, work light and extension cord and several small clamps.
