Day 2 (or is it really Day 1) of Craft Room Fix Up.

Alright, so we had a change in plans last night as well... My younger brother came over to pick up some stuff I had for him and he ended up staying for dinner. Man the stars are not aligned for me to get this room done - but I did NOT go to sleep without working on it!!!

So without further a do (is that how you write it?) I give you day #2 - of the Craft Room Fix Up!
Took the air mattress out and moved the craft desk up towards the middle of the room. I want to paint this desk and I got a quart of oops paint (in dark brown)that only cost me a $1! Quick Tip: if you are ever in need of paint, before you go out and spend a bagillian dollars on a can of paint check out the oops section at Home Depot (or Lowes) and you just might find what you are looking for for a fraction of the cost!! I think at HD their oops paint is like $1 for a quart and $5 for a gallon. check it!
I moved my sewing table to the little corner in the far right of the room when you walk in. This room is smaller than all the others would be nice as a nursery, but we are not in that frame of mind - Thank.You.Very.Much. As you can see there is a bunch o stuff everywhere. One day at a time, one day at a time!
Ok. so now I am standing in the back of the room and to the left (the tupper) there are projects in waiting! I can't wait to do something with those. There are picture frames, baskets, mirrors, etc. JUST good stuff!!
Now I am standing by the closet (which also needs some organizing and stuff) Here is my sewing table that I got for $5! I KNOW I KNOW that the chair there is not very pretty, but it is comfortable AND it was $3. I will paint it white and change out the seat (which is a purplish/pink color) and it will go great with the sewing table.
Here is another part of the room with crafts galore. On the top right you can see a small bolt of fabric sticking up. Well in that bag is a bunch of fabric that I need to organize and I would have shown you how I started to organize some of it, buuuuuuuuuuut I didn't want to create an avalanche if I opened the closet. You catch my drift right... ok.
So that's it for day #2. I hope to get more done to work tonight because we will just go straight home right after work.
See you later!
Hasta!
Adri.
