Literary Character Bedroom - Character Analysis
Imagine your favorite literary character. What do you know about them? Why do you like them? Is there a lot of depth to their personality? What do you think they are like in their personal lives, when not being presented in the situations of a book? You can tell a lot about a person from their living space. Are they neat or messy? What types of hobbies do they have? How do they decorate the walls? What types of books do they read or movies do they watch? What about their clothes? There are so many fine details that we take for granted in our every day lives that tells other people who we are.
For this project, you are to choose your favorite literary character and create their bedroom. Below I have created an example using Snow White. You need to choose at least 20 items to place around their room and then explain. For every extra item you will receive bonus points, up to 40 items total.

- Set of hair combs: When she is living with the dwarves in the forest the evil queen disguises herself as an old woman selling hair combs. Snow White lets her in and allows the queen to put the combs in her hair, which are poisoned, causing Snow White to fall over in a death like state.
-Crown: Snow White is technically the princess and eventually queen of her own kingdom and Prince Charming’s.
-Evil Queen Target Picture: The evil queen tries to kill Snow White on Multiple occasions, therefore Snow White does not like her and uses her picture as target practice for a dart board.
-Picture of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves: What girl doesn’t have a picture of her and her best friends somewhere in her room?
-Poster of Prince Charming: As a teenage girl Snow White daydreams about one day finding a handsome prince to rescue her and take her away from all of the horrible realities in her life.
-Poster of The Huntsman: The Huntsman was supposed to take Snow White into the woods to kill her and bring the heart back to the evil queen. Instead, he tells her to run into the enchanted forest and spares her life. She has a little bit of a crush on him after that since he is her hero.
-Poster of Apples: Snow White dies a third time by eating and choking on a poisoned apple given to her by a disguised evil queen. On many occasions she states that apples are her favorite type of food.
-Red Rose sent from a secret admirer: To match her red lips (although they are supposed to match blood). Women enjoy flowers and she gets one from a secret admirer, as we don’t know the true name of her prince charming.
-Metal shoes: At the end of the story, the Evil Queen is punished by having to wear metal shoes that have been heated in a fire.
-Mining tools: the dwarves are miners by trade. The tools are small to accommodate to their tiny statures.
-Gems: They go with the mining tools. The dwarves probably have them laying all over the house.
-White powder makeup: Snow White has skin as white as snow.
-Red Lipstick: Snow White has lips as red as blood.
-Once Upon A Time TV Series DVD: the story of Snow White and Prince Charming is prominent in this televisions series.
-The 10th Kingdom DVD: Another movie that has a mixed up version of the Snow White story.
-Grimm’s Complete Fairy Tales: The story of Snow White was originally written down in this book by the brothers Grimm.
-Book about Not Talking To Strangers: Snow White has an issue with letting strange old women into her house while she is alone, even though the dwarves tell her repeatedly not to do so.
-Book about taking care of wild birds: From the Disney version of the story, where all sorts of birds are attracted to any Disney princess that sings a song.
-Dress: Many reasons for the dress… 1. One of the ways in which the Evil Queen tricks Snow White is by giving her a new bodice and then lacing it up on her too tightly causing her to lose her breath. 2. It is in the style of the time period that the story is set in. 3. Living alone in the forest during that time period, she would have had to made her clothes for herself, which is why it’s on a dress making mannequin.
-Bird feeder: Again, Snow White has a thing about singing to birds and attracting them.
-Cleaning supplies: The deal that Snow White Makes with the Dwarves is that if they allow her to stay, she has to clean up after them and keep the house by cleaning, cooking, mending clothes, etc.
-Broken glass: Two reasons for the broken glass. 1. When the Evil Queen is dead I’m sure that Snow White went and broke that mirror into a thousand tiny pieces. 2. When the dwarves feel that Snow White is really dead they create a glass coffin for her because she is so beautiful to look upon. This is where Prince Charming sees her and decides to haul her away to his castle, causing her to spit up the apple and become alive.
