Space

Jars and bits on the desk.

I've fallen in love with the dormer space on our second floor between the upstairs bedrooms.  We've been using it as a den, but with all the overcast days from the lake effect clouds I find myself needing to be by some windows.   

Workbench with Ikea tins.

My husband built me this work bench three years ago.  Mom and I hauled it out to the den and gave it a fresh coat of paint.

This large inspiration board is made from a roll of cork and some left over trim strips.  I covered it with burlap from the craft store to hide the cork seams.  

Sarah Susanka's The Not so Big House is an inspiration to me.    Now the not-so-frequented den is my most favorite spot in the house!
