Schoolroom Now

077
I have been MIA around here lately.  But don’t think I haven’t been busy, because I HAVE!  I have made new pillows for my recovered sofa.

I am loving the way it looks in front of the art wall and with the covered lampshades.
082
I also recovered this chair and made new drapes.
087
Not to mention updated the mantel.

Last, I hung some antique silver trays under the school desk to use as memo boards.

Next week the girls and I are going to make decorative magnets for the boards.

I hope to be back soon with more.

Swooning - I may need to rest on that fabulous sofa to catch my breath!

Love everything about this room - from the wall art (and that fabulous car grill) to the dough bowl and stacked suitcases and globe ...

Happy to be a new follower.

Wow! I'm so glad I found your blog via the shabby creek cottage. Not only do I love this room and your style, but I've been contemplating homeschooling my kids for a while now. I think your blog might help me work up the nerve...

I am loving this school room!!! My kids have been wandering around doing their school work lately, and I was telling my husband the other day that I needed "stations" or something, so they could work by themselves, but stay in one place. Totally loving that big, long work desk!
Great job!

Oh I love all of the art! And I love the bold art in contrast with the modern utilitarian designs. Fabulous!
