I tend to spend my entire summer doing BIG projects. I'm not sure why I can't just relax!!!! This summer I really needed a workspace, but there were no extra rooms available for me. (Insert my sad face.) So I decided to take about 25 square feet of my bedroom and turn it into my workspace.

The workspace is multi-purpose. I store all of my school materials, crafts, my children's crafts, home office materials and my children's school memory boxes.
I did not want to spend any extra money on this project so I reused bookcases that I had in my old office. I painted them white with left over paint to try to keep a calm space for the room. I also repurposed baskets from another space in the house. The ribbon is hung up on small curtain rods that I attached with hooks to the bookcases. The paint has magnets on the bottom that stick to cookie sheets that are screwed into the bottom of the shelf. Both the ribbon project and the paint project came from Pinterest ideas. A lot of the items are stored in jars that I save from food. The children's school memory boxes are white copy paper boxes. I added duct tape around the top to hide the labels.

So this project took some time and it's not over. As I use it I'm sure that I will move some things around. I also want to have my hubby make doors for the shelves. He isn't as thrilled about that idea as I am. Wonder why?
