brown sugar.: Room Redo: Guest Room to Studio

I'm taking vacation at the end of this month and am planning on converting our Guest Room to my Studio.

Studio = fancy pants name for Craft Room

The reason we decided (it was actually Chris's idea) to make the change is because I love crafting but don't do it as often as I would like. It's a pretty big pain to drag everything out from the Guest Bedroom closet, set it out on the Dining Room table, hopefully finish my project in one sitting, and then clean it all up when I'm done (instead of shutting the door behind me and leaving the clean up for the next day). Wouldn't that deter you from crafting too?

And for the record, don't be fooled into thinking that I keep everything put away nicely in the closet. Guests wouldn't even be able to stay in that room in the shape it's in right now. It's a craft explosion in there right now. I did clean it up from this disaster but it's on its way to looking like that again.

Shameful, I know.

Anyway, I've been pinning a few things that I like for the room.

The current color scheme I think I'm leaning towards is teal, dark lime (similar to the cubes in the

picture below), white, and yellow accents.

I'm sure there are few naysayers of my color palette mixed but I can see the vision. Trust me.

See how it can come together in real life?

I need a pegboard to hold paint brushes, markers, ribbon, etc.

I can use a few leftover Mason Jars from the Wedding for this...maybe on the pegboard?

I LOVE this giant "Inspiration" board.

I'll definitely be needing one of these from IKEA for more storage.

I also want to try to either make Chevron curtains or canvases. I don't really want to do anything too permanent with Chevrons like painting the wall since they are pretty hot trend right now and I'm not sure how long I'm going to like it.
