I am back in my new room!

Hi Everyone!

I am finally back at my desk in my brand new craft room! I have a long way to go in the next few days getting everything back in and the shelves and pegboard up but I wnated to share how far we have come!


This is what the wall looked like where I sampled paint. I had a color I was OK with, but it was much too bright, so I took the paint chip back to Lowes and had them mix a small can of 25% and 50% less color. The 50% less color was perfect! So my friend Linnie came over and between her, me and my husband Wayne we got the room painted in a little over 2 hours!

The color on the far right is the one we chose.....

And this is the color all done! I tried taking some other photos but they just washed out...so I hope you get the idea....it is the prettiest robin egg blue....I just love it!

Now, for the floor. When ever I take a photo, my dog Maya has to get in it, she ran in, turned around, sat down and she "posed"! I took this one so you could see how the floor looked first. Just plain tan carpet...blech!

Here, the tile is going in.....I was so afraid that when they took up the carpet the floor would be all uneven but we were pretty lucky, the guys that laid the floor only has one area to sand down. We live in a modular home, so it was board underneath the carpet.


And here is the finished product! I am so happy with it! We had to put 4 coats of polish on, and my husband thinks we need to buy a cheap buffer to keep it pretty...we'll see.
So what do you think?????

I was also lucky enough to find an old Cosco kitchen cart at Goodwill for 12.00. It was in pretty good shape, but the wrong color, so after a can of cherry red Krylon.....

This is how it came out! It is going to hold my printer, and paper and it holds my modem and such for my computer. Perfect piece for the room.
Well, this is all I have right now, but I wanted to share it as soon as I could! I can't wait to get into my bins and boxes and see what I have....you know it is that shopping at home again! LOL

Thanks for stopping by!
