Organizing the Office

I want this space to be inspirational for my crafting. I will be doing most of my crafting in this room and I want it to bring my ideas to life. This is especially important for my scrapbooking. I have so many ideas for albums. Along with being inspirational the space has to be motivational. On days when I'm in a bipolar low I want a place I can go to that will ease my symptoms. I want a place that is serene! When I get back to school I will use this space to study, so the color cannot be overwhelming. I want there to be fabulous, homemade pictures on the wall. I would also like to hang some pictures of the kids and our whole family on the walls in cool, crisp white picture frames. I want matching curtains and blinds to create privacy but also to allow the sun to shine in when wanted. I want the bookshelves organized; I want my scrapbooking desk to be straightened and clear; I want my desk to be free of clutter and popcans and such; I want the floor to be decluttered and vacuumed regularly. These things are what will drive me to work hard to create the space I desire and envision!

Here's where I'm at today:

My scrapbooking area is partially put together. I'm waiting on the brackets to put the desktops on. I also need to get Erek to hang my embellishment center on the far wall. Most of the stuff is put away in drawers or cubbies that are organized. I am also waiting on my paper organizers to come so I can sort my papers and get them put away. Oh I also need to organize my brads area. Once these things are done the area will be perfect! As far as the entertainment center goes that is pretty much set. The TV just needs to be hooked up to the cable jack. I would like something to hang over the entertainment center or some decorative items to put on top of the entertainment center. For the bookshelves. I have most of the books in their place I just need to organize them better. My desk is atrosious. It has popcans everywhere, it needs to be dusted and cleaned and I have some books and a box that need to be taken care of. DH's desk has some binders and more books that needs to be dealt with, then cleaned and organized. I still need to finish decluttering the floor and vacuum and then this room will be ready for paint! I can do this! 15 minutes at a time!
