chepyl Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I finally had time to take pictures and post them! I have not been home much for the last few days. The first photo is our storage dresser - it used to be white with flowers all over it - and our dining room table. We only use it for eating when we have company and for that we can move it to the center of the room. The second photo is of our desks and one book shelf. The wall is a half wall that looks into our family room (it is a mess, and I was trying to avoid showing the giant, disastrous bookshelf in that room! The third is more of a full view from the kitchen. When we bought the house, the wall the table is against was tan, the wall the dresser is on was mauve, the half wall was olive green on bottom and tan above the spindles. The fourth wall (did not show it, it has my eliptical against it) was the same olive green. With the white ceiling and berber carpet....it was nauseating! I am much happier now and want to spend all of my time in that room! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chepyl Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 Okay....I don't know why the pictures are upside down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioMom66 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 haha, yes, I was thinking "what, she wants us to stand on our heads???", lol! I love that you have a dresser to use for storage! I like stuff, but I don't like to see my stuff. I wish I had a dresser too! Looks good!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chepyl Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Okay...the pictures got flipped on my computer somehow! I flipped them back and here they are! The dresser is a very old dresser we pulled from FIL's storage unit when we cleaned it out after he moved to the Philippines. It was falling a part. We fixed it and painted it white with flowers for Grease: The School Edition, when we did it with our students. I decided to use it after the show! I just repainted it a few months ago. I want another one, or another bookshelf! I have too many books and we are only in the first grade, with number 1! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garga Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 What a great room! I just bought my 13th bookcase from Big Lots the other day. It has 5 shelves and isn't anything to write home about, but it was only $30 and I needed the shelving. They also had a 3 shelf one for $17. So...if you need to get some bookcases quick and cheap, go to Big Lots. (If you have one.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrappyhomeschooler Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I like the student desk next to the big desk. Looks like it will be a good spot to learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nestof3 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 It's lovely! So clean and organized. I so wish we had a school room. :) Or, at least a bookshelf and curriculum room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
