Girl Meets House

I apologize in advanced...this will be a long post :) It has taken a while for me to transform my "extra" room into my new Art/Craft/Sewing room...

Back in January, I finally tackled painting this room...


I painted it a light, bright green...very cheerful :)
I had replaced the door leading from my kitchen to the backyard, and knew I wanted to take the old door and make it into a table/workbench (as I've seen done on multiple home improvement shows). It took a while, but I finally got a glass piece and put together the table one night after work.

I just used 4"x4" posts as legs (Home Depot didn't have any table legs that I liked):

I took a day off work this last week and got a lot of things done around the house; my big goal of the day, was to tackle more of this room, starting with putting up these shelves that my boss gave me (thanks Candace!!!):

I got half the shelves up by the end of the day (and the mirror), and got some organization/cleaning done... Friday I finished up the room:

When you look out of the window in this room, you look out onto the vegetable gardens.
Me...and my new favorite room...even passing by it makes me happy :)

I started some seeds inside a week or two ago and they have grown a lot! Some days it seemed like they grew an inch; it was so fun to see a difference in them every day. We transplanted some of them outside today (more on that later).

A few of the seed packets we bought:
