How to Interior Design: Feng Shui your face......./room



Interior design done Lee style
Circles give off the best kind of relaxation. For me I find the circular shape a meditative one, even though you will never find me
I used the old hold-a-pencil-piece-of-string trick where you have a pencil on one end of a string and the other end is your center of your circle. Just decide the size of your circles and trace away.

3. Pick out whatever color paper you want to use. If you use magazine paper you can take it off the wall easier than newspaper if you use stick glue to apply.
