how to create a Interior decorating/design storyboard?

I am working on a storyboard for my decorating class. Can anyone help me?? I can't find a thing on line! I have to have 1) a floor plan of a bedroom 2) co-responding fabrics that I would use and 3) a legend.
Here's my problems:
1) It is a 1D drawing of the room with the use of stencils for the bed, lamps, (the actual furnature only) etc. How do I show the corresponding fabric I would use for the pillows since I am not supposed to "draw" them onto the actual floor plan of the bedroom?
2) I have only ever done square, simple rooms before, so showing the wall measurements was easy...now I have a balcony, on-suite and walk-in closet? All I have to do is a bed-room..but I wanted to do more. So, do I show the dimensions of everything? If so how? If not, how do I show the dimensions of the bedroom without making the floor plan look too messy?!
Sorry for such a long question, but I knew if anyone could help, it would be you guys! PLEASE help me!


Answer:
Well...Why don't you code the plan (for instance, he bed is "1", and the pillows could be "1A", with the skirt as "1B" etc.). Then code the corresponding fabrics the same. The fabrics look neatest if you wrap them around a piece of mat board or foamcore and then adhere to your presentation board. You can mount the plan at one side and the fabrics and furniture pieces at the other side, or do some other kind of composition...whatever works for you.

As for the dimensioned floor plan...it's gonna look messy. It's the nature of the beast.

Good Luck!
