The Beginning - Idea! wouldn't it be wonderful to have my own space to work on crafts, pictures, learn how to scrapbook or whatever it is I feel like doing?  Thus begins my journey to create that space.  I wanted to create this blog to calendar my process and reflect back on the thoughts I have while working through the whole idea.  I hope you enjoy reading this blog and will provide input, ideas, etc. as I go along.  

This is what the area I am going to use looks like now:

First task paint.  I'm thinking something bright and cheery and coordinates better with the blue carpeting.

Here are some of the color swatches I've picked so far, not sure if any of these will be the one but I need to figure it out quickly since I plan on beginning to paint next weekend.

Probably a trip back to Lowe's to look at more colors because none of these are really thrilling me right now.   I'm trying not to go blue since just about every room in our house is blue.  However, it does happen to be my favorite color and looks terrific with the white woodwork.  So it's going to be tough not to pick something blue but I am fighting the urge....  Stay tuned.
