Revamped Craft Area

I had talked about redecorating the craft room for a while now, it is finally done.
Voila!

The Desk backs up to french doors that lead into the bedroom - they are always closed so its not a big loss to have that covered. (We actually have a real door for the bedroom, dont worry.)

The Desk, Chair, Chair Mat and curtains all came from IKEA. Which made this a very modestly priced redecorating project.



There is a door leading to the backyard that we hardly use (due to the door being very difficult to open and shut) so for a more cohesive look I decided to hang the curtains across it and the window next to it.
I put up the "tie backs" near the sides of the curtains so if we did decide to go out that door, we could pull the curtain back out of the way and secure it.
Which is also handy for when I take photos, I need the sunlight and being that it is a Sunroom in Florida, there is plenty of it!








The closet is a horrid mess - most of the time one door is open so I can access the fabric and other supplies I have in it, but for the photo you all dont get to see that! :)

Instead of spending 30 dollars on a coat rack to hang finished bags, I had a pedestal light that I never use, which is doing the trick well, I think.

Also what you cant see is this room is off of the main living space. So you can see from the kitchen through the dining room across the living room into this room. Instead of a glaring white space, we now have a lovely lush little cove.
