I am finally ready to announce the room themes for the 2020 Xmas Museum (XmM). As usual, I wanted to challenge myself to come up with some new designs, as well as re-do some of the displays in the prior XmM locations.
Here are the 2020 themes per room:
Mediterranean Palace
- Location: Dining Room
- Color theme: Royal Blue and Yellow; Gold
- Description: Combination of blue and yellow to create a sense of walking into a room in some palace located in the Mediterranean. Scrolls, luxury fabrics, sparkling jewels, custom window treatments and stained glass.
