craft room is under construction. . .

so on thursday i took my measurements and my little plan i had drawn up and went up to menard's to purchase my wood and supplies to start building (well for my husband to start building) my craft desk/work space. i love how it turned out so far. the desk itself is pretty much done now... i'm going to buy some material and sew a curtain to put around the bottom of it to hide all the stuff that will be under it. i bought partical board for the actual desk top that had like a white plastic finish to it.. i learned after getting it home it scratches VERY easily and after we had to screw the table top to the legs that i probably didn't need to buy the white... because I'm going to have to cover it up with something now. i was thinking about getting old maps or maybe vintage wallpaper and putting it on top.. hmm..we will see.. anyways.. I really wanted to paint the room first but the desk was a MUST and the paint is just a WANT.. hehe So I figured I'll get the desk in...and get everything organized as much as I can then I'll paint later. I won't hang any shelves or storage stuff on the wall yet until I paint but atleast I'll have a workspace that I can start getting my projects done. I'm really excited to get to start working in there. We got the desk finished on friday and I moved my computer and sewing machine on it but it was late and JC was tired and really didn't want me messing with it anymore so I just left it. Yesterday (saturday) after JC and I went outside and raked some leaves and got some things done in the yard we went in there and he helped me organize it a bit. I'm hoping to go to wal-mart today and buy me some plastic tote/drawers and start putting away alot of the clutter.

I can't wait to post my stuff on here to show you guys all what I've got planned. Not only with the stuff I'm going to be putting in my store and selling online but all the homemade christmas gifts I'm going to be doing for my family and friends and how my craft room turns out.
