Quilted Dogs

I had a very small quilt and craft room and just kept tossing things into it, so small I did not want to work in there except to put things in there, I am sure others understand on where I am coming from for sure!!!!!

I was in the process of making a den into our larger bedroom and then decided, NO, I needed a bigger room so why not change the rooms, make the small room the den...yes...so that is what I did!!!

Please enjoy my pictures of the old room and redone room!!! I enjoyed it a lot but a couple months went by and we ended up selling our home and there goes the new room!! Still wanted to share this with all and it meant so much to me......yet, here in our new place...duplex, I am going to make another NEW room in our cellar and will be better and bigger for sure, pictures to follow this winter for sure......so in the meantime, enjoy what I did and maybe can give some of you ideas:

Using shelves for my books, they stand but I did this with them to hold books or can turn them over for a shelf on top, bought them at Michaels for $10 each

Counter top bought at Menards and shelf over window to hold curtain online, good way to use space

Storage on top of old chest, storage for stamps, etc. of craft supplies, chest draws hold heavy material

I had to add more information in a new post here due to only able to post 10 pics. Here is the beginning of using Comic Book Boards I got and reorganized for the NEW room this winter, what a space saver for sure for all of u too:

Before pics of material:

Using the boards, thicker ones are 3 yds. and smaller 1 yd., u can wrap up to 8 yds. I believe on one....could not believe this little book shelf is holding so much material.....

Ordered online at www.bcwsupplies.com and cost me $11 for 100 boards, bought 300 and lots still to use
