Build’n’Share Challenge #59 - The Hawthorne Project - Phase 2The Hawthorne Project - Phase 2“I can’t believe it’s been three months since I met Ms Hawthorne” You think to yourself as you open the email from The Hawthorne Legacy on your laptop. You still had Rose sitting in the foyer being her ultra efficient self, now, the foyer looks a little like a bomb site, with papers and folio’s littering most of the surfaces.
“I really miss Rose. But I must find a replacement soon, or this place is going to start losing clients.” You ruminate on this as you read the email.
Hi, my name is Karl Hedges, I saw a flyer for the Hawthorne Project and had to email in for my sister, Julia. She is new to the area and is stuck in a small one room apartment in a shady area of town. It’s a shame she’s so much of a loner, she barely leaves her apartment. She deserves better than this, I would love to help her myself, but my husband was recently made redundant and we have three wonderful children to support. She moved here to be closer to us and I feel just awful that things haven’t turned out as planned. We were planning on building an annexe to our home for her to live in, so that I could return to work as a Personal Assistant. Julia is a nanny, she is so family oriented, we were going to provide room and board for her services. I have attached a link to her Simpinterest account so that you can see the sort of décor ideas she has. You click the link and you are taken to a page that shows a real love of shabby chic, lots of baby pinks and blues and creams. This girl has taste you think to yourself. As you continue to browse Julia’s Pins you notice that there are lots of Yoga poses and clothing, as well as healthy recipes. You continue to read the rest of Karl’s email.
She doesn’t know that I am doing this for her, she is quite proud and would hate to think that she was being given ‘charity’, but I want her to be safe and have a home she can love. Everyone deserves at least that. She is so cheerful about her situation, insisting that something will turn up.
Thanks for taking the time to read this email and I really hope to hear from you soon.
Regards.
Karl Hedges

Shabby Chic Bungalow MediaENTRY DETAILS: I created a small bungalow for Julia to live in it is quite basic, but it should have everything she needs. A large reception room, a kitchen, a small dining nook, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Decorated in creams, pinks and blues, I tried to create her a sanctuary from the outside world. Everything the Hawthorne Project requested is present, from the bookcase, computer and handmade guitar in the main living area, to the vegetable garden down the side of the home, there is a punch bag and a Yoga mat for Julia to be able to work on her athletic and wellness skills. There is also an easel and a chess set on the front porch.

ENTRY DETAILS: I made a small cottage, on the 'cottage am se' lot in Windenberg, as I thought a cottage would fit the shabby-chic décor well. As no cottage is complete without a garden there are plenty of harvestable plants to make healthy meals with. The back patio has a yoga mat so Julia can enjoy the views while exercising.
