    OMG!! I did this to my classroom years ago! I did the whole Harry Potter theme with brick wall paper, a large faux fire place, and I turned the class into houses just like the books!, minus Slytherin, since none of the kids wanted to be in that house. Plus, I swear, I was talking to my friend Suzie several days ago that I wanted to redo the room in Harry Potter. I got so excited for the new book. She thought I was crazy because technically my room is already done being decorated and I am seriously thinking about ripping it all down and starting over with Harry Potter again.

    I think the brick border would look great! Be sure to make it a jagged random pattern instead of straight. I wish I was allowed to put up this much paper, because this looks WONDERFUL! You're students are very blessed to have you.

    I think the blue wall looks great on its own! but if you wanted a border, the brick would be a nice way to tie it all together. If cutting the brick paper into strips would be very time consuming maybe even some colored thick ribbon that you can just run along so it's nice and straight! not sure really just throwing ideas out there haha :)

    I think you should have gold and silver stars overlapping for the navy blue wall and buy some of those electric candles sticks and tie them to fishing line and hang them from different lengths on your ceiling xx

    @skykennedy9389 8 лет назад

    Loving watching your classroom come together! It truly amazes me just how much stuff you have! I'm a student teacher so its all still very new and overwhelming to me :)
    As for the border, I think a gold or silver trim would look super cool (and definitely fits the theme) But if you want to use something you already have then the brick could be cool too :)

    Do the strips of the stone paper! It will look good & be easier on ya. You could even do the burlap around the whiteboard? Either way, your room looks fab and I am getting antsy to get into my room to start decorating! Wished I was as clever as you and came up with all of these little details!

    love your videos, I would hot glue the burlap to the trim that your didnt like, then trim off the excess with scissors; sounds easy, no clue if it is.

  • @roxanewilson5325
    @roxanewilson5325 8 лет назад

    you should use some of the brick paper that you used on your back wall. that way it gives the same feel. love the room idea. Harry potter is the best. so many ideas you can do. I adore your videos.

    Hi the brick wall paper is a great idea and it looks beautiful, for the trim of the blue wall i would use the paper but cutting it on an irregular shape (like one brick down two up, and so one)
    Sorry for any misspell, watching from Portugal :)

  • @dmac5306
    @dmac5306 8 лет назад

    For border, brick would mirror the opposite wall and give in a more Hogwarts feel! Well done! I am wicked impressed at all you do. Wish we could do wallpaper, however fire code is so strict in our province:(

    Hi...I'm a teacher from England! I love watching your videos they're so much fun...I'm moving into a new school and new classroom this year so I have lots to sort too...but I'm very much enjoying my summer break atm.
    An idea for your front navy wall....you could get the blue, crimped, wavy border that you said clashed and just use the white on the reverse of it...it will be bright and fresh and should offset the white board you have there too! Just an idea?
    Keep up the amazing vids. Vicky x

    @mintamorrison7120 8 лет назад

    I think a border with stars on it would be great on your navy wall it would add another level of accent to the room. Otherwise the brick would be nice.

    What is the fire marshal situation where you are? I am so jealous. I am in Southern California and all fabrics has to be fire treated, we can only have one layer of paper, nothing on the walls can be closer than 18inches from the floor or ceiling and only 20% of our walls, 40% if you have sprinklers, can have something on them.

  • @mattfortune8116
    @mattfortune8116 8 лет назад

    For your boarder why not use coloured ribbon in the Hogwarts house colours or in purple which is the Hogwarts colour. I think ribbon looks cleaner plus it will last longer than the paper boarders.

    Did you use the blue flat sheets on your front wall? I am surprised you were allowed to hang curtains. In my school in NY they would be considered a fire hazard along with the sheets. I love the look of the room so far. Water bottle is a nice idea!

    Question! Were you anxious/nervous your first year teaching? I'm so excited but have been feeling anxiety lately, I think it's because my room is not complete and I have all these meetings and everything is coming at me at once! I wish this feeling would pass but do you have any advice to calm these nerves? Also, what is the curriculum for? Are they just a guide? I received the books and don't know where to begin. I teach in Texas and we follow the TEKS and I know to create engaging lessons but I'm confused as to what the curriculum is for and does it have to be used? Thanks in advance!!
