Oh my goodness, yesterday was so much fun…Ikea is huge…I had no idea what to expect and by the time we left the King of Prussia mall we all just was ready to collapse, but we made it through Ikea. My poor son will probably run in the other direction if I ever mention another trip to Philadelphia. Now that I’m thinking of it, Scott probably will to.

Look what I got for my craft room. I’ve been wanting one of these for a very very very long time. This desk is amazing :0) I just had to set it up last night….around 10pm I thought to myself. What the heck are you doing? GO TO BED! I was totally wiped out.

Have a great Thursday and hopefully I’ll get this room organized so I can work on a project or two before my vacation is over….

Finally….
OK So I went a little crazy with the video…It’s almost 30 minutes long. Thank goodness I made partner on YouTube and I don’t have time limits anymore. YAHOOOO!
Here is Part 1

Here is Part 2

Thanks all for following along and hope this helps with ideas for storage.
Hugs ~C~

Sunday already? Man this weekend is flying…

This is the last update until the big reveal of my new Craft Room….

I’m about 90% done. I still have some organizing to do, like sorting my cardstock, pattern paper and labeling the drawers so I know where everything is.

Be sure to check in tomorrow…I’ll be posting a video of my room.

Hugs….

Here is my Saturday update…

4:30pm Went shopping and picked up two bookcases. I finished assembling the smaller case, just waiting for Scott to bring the other one in from the car. 

4:40pm Found the camera….

9:15pm update….Boy am I tired….The 2nd bookcase it put together and placed in it’s new area. My workspace it installed, computer is re-installed, and my ribbon organizer (aka tie rack) is up. Still have tons of organizing to do and more shelving to install. Working on the closet now. Tomorrow after work I’ll work more on organizing.

My room is empty. Holy Cow!

I started painting a little last night so I didn’t have so much to do today. As soon as Ethan is dropped off at school I’m home to paint.

Thanks everyone for your sweet comments. I’ve been wanting to paint this room since the day I got full custody. I used to only have a corner then I tossed my dear hubby out. Don’t worry he works at the dining room table now! LOL

Have a great Friday! and more updates tomorrow or tonight.

Hi All,
Here is an update on my room. Ethan and I went to Lowes last night and picked out the paint. When I told him I was going to paint my room green he decided he wanted to go shopping with me. His favorite color is green and I think he wanted to make sure I picked the right shade of green. LOL

You all know my favorite color is blue, but since I have blue carpet I didn’t want to paint the walls blue too. The color we picked is called Hazy Jade. It’s a really pretty shade of green. Can’t wait to start painting.

Here is what I got done last night…
I took out the black shelving and moved that into my sons room. He is thrilled because now he can display his Lego buildings and has places to put his Playmobil guys. He was so excited I even got him to dust the shelves.

I took down my Jetmax (or as my mom keeps calling them Inkjets or JetPacks) section and got the walls prepped for painting in these two sections.

I have to confess I have a love for the hammer and nails. Holy cow are there a lot of holes in my walls.

Here is what a picture of the section cleared…Isn’t that radiator pretty?

Can’t wait until tomorrow. Painting…..

Well I certainly opened up a can of worms when I decided to clean my room. It turned into a two day organizing project. I know it looked cleaned when you checked yesterday’s pictures, but I did a little cleaning before I took the pictures.

I did get lots done. All of my Prima’s are now kept in nice containers. Cardstock and Pattern paper have been organized (arranged my company). All of my collections are together and stored separately and I finally found a better home for my Sizzix dies.

Here are a few pictures. Sorry I’m not the best at taking pictures of my room….
