Well Then...

I could start today post with the same old same old "I've been busy and sorry I haven't posted" and all that - but truly, I've just been lazy!

I haven't really had anything to blog about this week as I have not gotten any closer to having the craftroom or office of my dreams. I am kind of disappointed in myself as I have high hopes, I just need more stuff to get it accomplished. I will have some stuff this weekend though because my hubby and I will probably wake up early and head on over to the HD to pick up some supplies to get this place to tip top shape.

We are gonna FINALLY tackle the craftroom, home office AND I am adding the garage to the list as well. Our garage is for the most part pretty empty - except for a couple of furniture projects that should get knocked out soon! (I have a friend coming over to do some woodwork and get my stuff ready for me to sand/paint/decorate)

Here are the things we need to get our three rooms a few steps closer to our dreams.

For the CraftRoom:

I know you have seen this beauty! It's from Pottery Barn and it's about $1100.00 - hmm a smidge out of our price range. So hubby made me one like forever ago, but I didn't paint it or anything, so it's still pretty raw. I want to paint and finish it.

I want to put something like this on top of the table to keep my stationary, cards, pencils, pens, etc. I need a couple of these to hold baskets with ribbon, material, scraps, and other stuff.

For the HomeOffice

Really, all we need to do is move some stuff around and organize a bit - this one's pretty much easy but we need the main piece of furniture - the desk! We want to do a partners type desk (you know the kind where two people sit at it with the table in between them.) Our office is pretty small and so I think it would work best. I found these at Ikea (in their catalogue) so I don't know how they would work in real life. We may go by Ikea this weekend to check them out.

For the Garage:
Here it's just about getting stuff off the floor and on to shelves. There really isn't much in this space, so we just need to get the paint cans, tools, and other garagey type stuff off of the ground. For that we need:

For an expensive option, I could go with steel (lasts longer and looks better)

To get it done right away, I could go with the cheaper option... hmm I guess we'll see what hubby says!

Hasta!

Adri.
