Instructions

    • 1

      Draw your rectangular- or square-shaped home on a piece of paper. Do this for all floors. If your house is an odd shape, choose the shape it most closely resembles and draw your home within this shape. For example, if your house is an "L" shape, it is most similar to a rectangle. Draw the rectangle first and then draw the "L" shape of your home inside the rectangle.
