Annie Laurie Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 It looks wonderful- pleasant to be in and functional! I want that desk for everyone to sit around! I want to repaint my school room too, but it's not gonna happen anytime soon. I love what you did to yours, very inspiring as far as organization.

stephanier.1765 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I absolutely love it!

Allearia Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I love it, especially the table! We are planning our schoolroom and plan to head to Ikea for a bunch of stuff so I love all the ideas.

TXMary2 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) It looks fantastic! I love the desks you chose.....did you put two desks together? Thanks everyone - I am excited it is done! The desks are two Vika Amon tabletops- together it makes a 58-58 table. The tabletops are resting on 4 Vika Annefors. The shelving are all Expedit. Edited to add links requested: Vika Amon Tabletops (2) , Vika Annefors Table "legs" (4), Expedit 4x4 (2), Expedit 2x2(1), and Expedit 2x4 (1) Edited January 27, 2012 by TXMary2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXMary2 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 The room looks great, but I had to laugh at all of the pink in a house and schoolroom full of boys! Well that was a big topic of discussion. I wanted to paint the room pink and the boys balked big time. The gray was the compromise as long as I could have pink storage boxes! Plus, I am the teacher which means it is my room! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilypoo Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Looks amazing! I love Ikea; you've inspired me to go pick up a few things. I want to make a worktable like you have. I already have two 5x5 Expedit in the schoolroom but I love the big, center of the room table idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda in TX Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 It looks great! I've been trying to talk DH into the Expedit units, but he's not going for it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrapbookbuzz Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Must be nice to HAVE a separate room for schooling. *sigh* I'm happy for you, though. Really. Makes me want to make the 45 minute trip to OUR IKEA! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
