EVIT Room Makeover Completed!

After several months of paint, fabric samples and organized chaos, Paige Barlett has a brand new bedroom courtesy of the EVIT Interior Design. Paige, a student at Highland High School was the winner of the Extreme Room Makeover contest sponsored by Kim Foulger's morning class. Students purchased bedding, paint, rugs and furniture from local merchants including IKEA, Home Depot and Joann's Fabrics. With the help of the Construction class they assembled furniture and built a headboard for the bed transforming the room into an eclectic and modern refuge. In addition to constructing the headboard, the group assembled the furniture, painted, and created the pillows and window treatments.

Paige (in the center, holding the certificate) was surprised with the announcement at the end of the EVIT Expo event on Jan. 29.

The Interior Design students are ready to get crackin' on the new design for the room. We'll post before and after pictures here once the project is complete!
