Designer Elephant Blog: Sharing a Room

When Elwin and I were just little elephants, we had to share a room. It was, in some ways, SO much fun (we often talked waaaaay after we should’ve been asleep, and we always had each other for company, in case we got scared at night). In other ways, though, it was more difficult. Elwin snores, so that was slightly less than awesome. And I’m a total neat-freak, while he’s MUCH messier. In other words, we drove each other crazy.

When my family moved to our new house, we each got our own room (hooray!). I was talking to my friend Amanda Panda the other day and she told me a similar story – except that she still shares a room with her little sister, Polly. On the plus side, their mom and dad offered to pay for a room makeover. So Elwin and Hailey to the rescue!

This is the room Amanda and Polly used to share:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The biggest problem Elwin and I saw was one we used to have – clutter, clutter, clutter! Polly is (as you can probably tell) a voracious reader. Amanda, on the other hand, adores music and crafting. There’s just waaaaay too much going on in this room – so we made a few adjustments, and…

 

This is the room Elwin and I created for them! Now Polly can study and read and Amanda can be crafty and listen to music – and with the dividers, it’s ALMOST like they each have their own room – awesome!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today’s lesson: a little shelving goes a long way!

    Can you please do that to my room? I really like it! It is awesome! You should put rooms that you design in the estore or wshop then we can buy rooms we love that would be so cool! I have another suggestion can you make pets for webkinz? Like zums, except you can buy them online only at the wshop or estore. They could be pets like dogs and cats and fish and turtles! Or birds! So, if you like my ideas, please tell me! Comment here! Maybe if we all comment ganz will make these! Please, ganz! Webkinz get lonely without us! They need pets to keep them company! Please! Comment here! Go Webkinz!!!!!!!!

    So they now store their clothing under the beds, I guess. Maybe they gave all their clothing away & wear just the one outfit all the time. A little storage goes a long way, too. Maybe Hailey & Elwin need to think a little harder about the practical things.

    Honesty i don’t like either of the two rooms. The first room looks too cluttered and disorganized (like my room when I was younger). the second one looks to neat and OCD like (like my room now^^).
