craft room re design stage 2!!!!!!!!

stage 2

The builder has got the insulating done and has made a stud wall so that its now a separate corridor coming in from the back door which should help keep it warmer in there too (well when its got a door it will lol). This extension was first built as a bathroom but then changed by previous owner of house into a kitchen.  To say that it was a tight squeeze in there is an under statement when it was the kitchen but we managed with it like that for 8 years it wasn't until we moved out, rented the house out and then moved back into it again when we moved back to our home town through ill health that we wondered how we managed all those years!  So our friend the builder changed the 2nd living room/dinning room into a fab kitchen dinner for us.  Because its an old house and pretty dark i decided to go for white walls in the new craft room to reflect the light back into the room as we pretty much need lights on all day in that part of house.  My desk was black though and as i love the desk i didn't want to change it as its a solid bit of akea kit and has a glass top (ideal for when i am doing some messy crafting). So black and white with some bright storage boxes seemed the way forward.  A bit of extra white tiles were added and a couple of chipped black floor tiles replaced we were ready for stage 3.  Why not follow my blog to see the finished results thanks for looking

love Karen
