Craft Room

My craft room has officially moved. I decided to have it in the main part of the house because the old room needed a a closet ripped out, a window put in, and smelled of cigarette smoke. I wanted a room I could put together right away. So, I moved everything over to the new room and set the room up so that I can use it now. I want to paint it in the next couple of weeks, but I have not decided on a color yet. Jeremy wants to use the Devine palette again this time so I am trying to pick from that. I may stray though because I think I want something bright and fun and after looking I'm not so sure they offer what I want. I still have no idea exactly what that is though.

I took pictures to show the progress, but realized when I set down to upload them tonight that my camera cord is at work. I will get them on here eventually. In the meantime here are some photos of what I would like to add to the room:

Sweet bird and birdcage decals. There are multiple different etsy shops that sell the same thing, but the cheapest one I have found is in Tel Aviv. Even with shipping they are $10 cheaper than the other options. I can't order from anyone yet though because I haven't figured out color. I hate the look of conventional office chairs, but I don't want to just get a wood or plastic chair to sit at my sewing table because I want something comfortable. I found the top chair at Ikea, the print is maybe a bit too busy for me, but I like the idea of it.Something I really, really want is a cutting table. All of the industrial options are really spendy and the fold up ones are just flimsy and not level. I was thinking the best option would be to find an old drafting table. It would be nice to have one that tilts up to use when doing sketches from home. I also like the look of it. I will just end up with whatever table that is big enough and cheap though. Plus, I still want to cover it in cork and I don't think I could bear to do that to something this beautiful.

Anyway, that is where I am right now with the sewing/craft room. I'm going to go eat some cookies & cream ice cream and watch Coraline.
