The Modern Grey Bedroom

It's done! And I think it turned out pretty good:

 
 
The only items that are real miniatures are the vase in the corner, the Buddha on the shelf and the books. Everything else is hand made.
 
The bed is balsa, foam core, quilting fabric and tiny bamboo-like rods that came in a potpourri bag.
The end tables and the dresser are balsa blocks with added drawers, painted black. The drawer pulls are beads.
The lamps are beads and pieces of the bamboo sticks.
The modern wall hanging is a jewelry finding/bead.
The chair is a craft cork covered in fabric, the backing is cut from a paper towel roll and painted black.
The floor is foam core and the rug is gray felt.
The comforter gets its drape from tin foil folded into the fabric.
 
Here's a closeup interior view that I think is really cool.
 


As far as project FILOFAX goes, I bought a B5 size loose leaf notebook with extra paper and dividers and I'm in the process of collecting all pertinent information. It's going to be a lot of work, but hopefully when I'm done, I'll have a central location for all valuable information, an emergency vault of info to be used by me or handed off to someone, I will have used up a lot of my office supplies that I've been storing long-term for 'in case I need them' and I'll feel less stressed by being able to clear out some clutter and consolidate my stuff.

Wish me luck!
