Update on the Scrapbook Room

Here is the most recent picture of the desk. There is more things on it and some other things have been done to the room. This will be the last post about the office until it is completely finished. We have to finish painting the rest of the trim in the room, move in some furniture, put in some shelves and add my accents such as curtains and such. At least I am finally moved in to the office and its officially wonderful!
I love the decorative piece of trim on the edge of the desk. I saw it lying out in the garage because he had trimmed it off of a 2x4 so I had him put it on before we painted. I thought it was a nice little touch to add some pizzazz.

A new card

I made some blank stationary for me to use. I love them! I have a set of 10 of these cards. I plan on making more.

I made two more of them. The others have a baby blue and a light pink flower. One is for mail and the other is for small items and notes that I either need to type or file. I plan on making more! Thank you so much Amy for the wonderful tutorial!

Note: the only items here that were CTMH was the white daisy cs, watermelon marker and silver brad.

I used CTMH's "Silhouette" paper for this bow.

Yet another update on the scrap room....

Tons of progress has been made tonight.

The plexi-glass is in! Trim is being put on!

I've already started to tape off the trim so I can paint it. I'm super stoked!

The other picture is of the shelf that I store my inkpads and other random things on. It used to be wood, but I painted it white to match the decor of the room.

Update on the Scrapbook Room

Another update!
The desk is almost done. Tonight we anchored the cabinets, installed the top and covered the top with brown fabric. We're going to be getting the plexi-glass either tomorrow or Friday. I'm so excited! It's nearing completion!
We still have to add the trim and curtains to the desk, as well as the keyboard tray. (It will be on sliders.) I'm wondering if I should keep all of the pictures on the desk, or if I should cut some things out with my cricut and place them in there instead. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Update on the Scrapbook Room

I am so excited! It's nearly completed. Last night Kevin stayed up until 3 AM to get the floor done. It looks amazing! I have to finish priming the cabinets today and possibly start painting them. Its all coming together! *Keep in mind the base will be white.*

Update on the Scrapbook Room

I've been promised that the room will be done by SUNDAY! Flooring and all!

Update on the Scrapbook Room

So there have been a few changed made to the plans during the process of building the workstation. After Kevin finished one of the cabinets that hold up the counter, he realized that there would only be a 3 foot area for me to roll my chair around in between the L shaped desk area. We contemplated making everything a shorter depth, but it would have taken away from storage and workspace. So instead of an L shaped desk, I'm just making it a regular built-in along the back wall. So it will be 5 foot long, 2 foot depth. Now we need to figure out where my computer will go. I want to avoid putting my computer in the same space I'm going to scrap in. I need all of the room I can get for scrappin!

I completed painting our old microwave stand, so I have something to use for storage of my cricut and other accessories and such. The room is still a work in progress. I'm getting anxious and want it done. I've about HAD IT with working and attending school out of my living room next to a TV thats bigger than I am!
