The Martha Room Makeover....Before and After Pictures

Finally, the Martha Room is thisclose to being finished! If you have no idea what I am talking about you can read all about it here, here and here. :)

I am still lacking a desk chair with arms (I moved the one I originally bought for the desk and it now resides in a corner insetad), but my mom has the perfect little chair that she has offered to give me, so that problem will be solved soon enough! Thanks Mom! :)

This space used to be a second attic until the previous homeowners built it out and turned it into a game room (or additional bedroom...we're not sure). But, because of its previous life as an attic, the space had a lot of angular lines on the ceiling that I had to deal with. It made the project a bit more challenging because it really limited me on furniture placement, but in the end I think everything turned out nicely!

So, here are the before pictures....
 







And here are the after pictures...












And here is the storage closet (behind the door between the chair and antique chest)...
 

And there you have it...a 360 degree tour of my new office/craft/sewing room! :)
