Best Hubby in the world!

My husband built me these shelves over the weekend.  Aren't they great?  I still need to figure out what I'm going to
 put on them.  I just threw empty baskets up there for now.  My craft room is making progress!!!

The open area is for filming videos and setting up my light box.

I know I haven't been posting much lately.  Two weeks ago I went to Maryland on an overnight business trip with my husband, spur of the moment.  On our way home we received word that there was an unexpected death in our family.

  The funeral wasn't until this past Friday, so things have not been on the regular schedule.  

Hopefully things will settle back to normal now :0)

Craft Room Update

My hubby and son worked on my craft room all day Saturday.  I have new counter tops, some cabinets (whats left of our old kitchen cabinets-some were already used in the laundry room)and all new electrical outlets and switches.  We still need to add some shelving, but I am loving it!!!!  I have everything in one place now-my cricut, my laptop, and printer.  I cannot believe this is all mine :0)

We will put open shelving between the upper cabinets

desk area-laptop and printer. I want to add shelves for paper on the wall

work table.  still deciding if I want to raise this to counter top height.  It is made up of jetmax cubes and an old door 

New Craft Room!!!!!!

     When my son got married in June I moved my craft stuff into his bedroom, but didn't take the time to change anything.  He had 20 year old tan, construction grade carpet-yuk!!!!  The bottom third of the walls were dark blue, and 3 of the upper walls were white.  The main wall was scarlet on the top portion with a large white "M" with lacrosse sticks through it.  Red and blue are our school colors, and I painted it for him his sophomore year.  Unfortunately I don't have any "before" pictures!!!!
     We have plans to update the room, but hadn't done anything yet.  Wednesday my husband purchased laminate flooring for 3 rooms in our house, with plans to install them this winter.  Friday morning he decides to do the floor in my craft room!!!!  So we took the contents of the room and put it all in the kitchen.  I should have taken a picture of that! He did my floor Friday, and we painted all day Saturday,(I didn't want to empty that room again.) and moved stuff back in on Sunday.    Painting was a chore, covering all that dark paint.  I had no idea what colors to choose, and only had 1 day to decide.  I was going to stick with all white, but my daughters talked me into one green wall. It will be a while before the shelving and cupboards go in, but I am thrilled with my new space.  I never dreamed it would be done so soon.   I can't wait to go in and play!!!!!

my nice new floor!

My stuff added in.  It will be a while before it is finished, but I am thrilled to have such a nice room!
