(4 hours)Today I came in and I put up more LED lights around the room. I started by planning and measuring a lot, counting the dimensions and amount of lights we had and where things could fit. I put some around the entertainment center and TV, and I put some around the projector screen. I also picked up some wire clips to hold the wires in place

Today I contacted my mentor and I asked what my next project would be and he told me that he bought more LED lights and that I could put them up wherever I thought would be best.
(1 hour) I went to Kmart during their closing store clearance sale because I heard that they had really cheap throw blankets. I went there and I found some that matched the colors of the new paint of the walls, navy blue and gray, and I got about 5 of each color for $23 total.
(3 hours) This day was just me, my mom, and Russel, we did a second coat on the blue wall and did some touching up from the kids that made a mess, I again did corners after the second coat. We also had to scrape paint off the floor from the kids on the first day of painting.
(6 hours) The second day was a painting day where me, Russel, and 3 other youth kids painted the walls. We started on the dark accent wall then we moved onto the 3 grey walls. The other kids were not very precise with their corner painting. I had to take over the painting near doors, the ceiling, above the baseboards and corners near the blue paint.
(1 1/2 hours) The first day of redesigning the room , me and my mom came in early to church and I measured and planned out a place for the LED strip lights. I put up the lights around an open area in the wall that connects the youth room to the kitchen. We made a map of the room and drew where we wanted to put the rest of the lights up.
(1 hour) The first thing we did in this redesign project was ask the kids of the youth group how they wanted things to look. We told them that if there was no budget what things would they want in the room. We got a lot of ideas that include beanbags, new paint Foosball table, tables and chairs, board games a TV and Wii, LED strip lights, and glow in the dark start for the ceiling.
