GRYFFINDOR COMMON ROOM Makeover ✨ DIY & Budget Friendly

I unfortunately had to remove this last year due to the writers strike, so if you saw it previously be sure to show some love 🫶 FUN FACT: The tiles in the Atrium (and throughout the Ministry of Magic) were made out of thick cardboard, as actual ceramic tiles would have been very expensive to produce. Each "tile" underwent a lengthy painting process to give them the look of real ceramic tile. Over 30,000 individually placed tiles were used.

I am 80 y/o and have never seen a Harry Potter movie or the room that are referring to, however, I am a fan of dark academia decor and I have to say you absolutely nailed it with this room. YOu added all the charm and aesthetic required to give the vibe you were going for. You certainly should start in the set design and decorating business, you have so much imagination and knowledge of how to achieve that certain look you are going for. Again I love it. I have been an interior decorator for 50 years and always admire the ability in those people who can achieve an illusion to the point of being realistic. Good on ya girly !!!

Girl the difference between fan room and actual decor is so real and understated

Love how the reveal was filmed and edited

FANTASTIC. You have created a magical, cozy, inspiring (and transportable!) Gryffindor common room. Soooo well done. Great thrifting too. 🪄

a) this is one of the best fantasy room makeovers i've ever seen and b) your filmmaking is SO GOOD IN THIS

That's some heavy duty ambiance...it was amazing to watch your whole process! If I may share - I saw a post on fb of someone's bookcase, and they secretly slipped a chocolate candy bar [Lindt in this case] between some book spines - which I think is a great hiding place and would be handy in case of dementors.

OMG what you did in this room, I'm speechless!! Absolutely amazing❤

So beautiful!! And I love the sponsor segment. Your art is amazing!💕

Great job! Love your artwork you showed, too. BTW, there is a wallpaper that looks like castle walls that probably would have been cheaper & easier for you. I knew of a crystal/metaphysical shop that had it on all of their walls, and it looked great. I was thinking of making a Gryffindor themed living room, myself, but have not done it.

Amazon has moving wick candles. They come in tapers & pillares. I use them all over my home; they are Mezmerizing! They'd be perfect for your sconces. Thanks for all your great ideas. 👏

that portrait window turned out so good!

This looks so good!! I love it! 😍 I love how the window turned out 🤩 this was definitely inspiring for me.

This was so good I’m glad you reposted it!!!

I love the whimsical nature of this. Very cool.

The castle wall with the window is my favorite too! It came out so good! I loved the whole room! 😃

THIS IS CREATIVE, not the whole white on white on white trend we see

I'm in awe of your creativity and attention to detail. This looks amazing and so cozy.

I loved it, even though I'm Slytherin and Ravenclaw biased with the common rooms design, I just loved your creation. You did an splendid job!

You're so gosh darn talented! ❤
