This room gets a lot of use! In addition to the large desk area which I use for painting, calligraphy, etc., as well as a little south-facing greenhouse, all our craft supplies housed in the armoire, and of course our school books in our faux built-in bookcase, its large open area is great for free play. Right now, Adele has made a house with two large cardboard boxes, but at other times she can be found in here playing with our large exercise ball or an elaborate Citiblock structure.
You can see where we started with this room (along with my plans and ideas) HERE and some progress HERE.

I Love those shelves!!! I’m feeling a little envious as we moved here in August and I’m STILL waiting for the guy who’s supposed to build our shelves to do them. I REALLY hope they will be done by mid November!
Thanks, OrthodoxMom! I love them too! They are just inexpensive Ikea Billy bookshelves with crown moulding and vertical trim added. =)

Looks like a great place to read a book or have some home school lessons. We had our lessons upstairs in the print shop. The kids learned so much from their Mom and both learned how to run the press too. They’re gone now, graduated from college and have their own families. Home schooling is a great way to go.
LOVE!!!!
