I finally got around to taking pictures today. I'm so happy with this room, it came out just as I had pictured in my mind. I only wish I had a bit more space, as it is already pretty full. The room is only 9'x9.5', so I got a lot of stuff in it. The saving grace, is that besides my scrap stuff, and my Alice collection, I also have all my Disney Art/History books in the room. They take up 3 shelves. I want them in a different room, anyway, but I need more shelves/cabinets first. I had space in this room, so that is where they went. I also plan on adding a third floating shelf, above the tall cabinet. Also, most of the Jetmax drawers are empty, since I just got them on Black Friday. So some stuff that is currently in the closet, will end up in the drawers giving me more space in the closet.

My other regret is, in 2007 we went to Gibraltar and found a lovely linens store. They had these beautiful sheers with gold filigree stitching running through them. I couldn't decide what color to get, so I didn't get them at all. As soon as we got back to the boat, I knew I made a mistake. It's a bit hard to get back to Gibraltar, but I found the sheers used in the room for 75% off at JC Penny. They have flowers and a heart scroll border, which makes them perfect for an Alice themed room. But I'd rather have one of these...

Desk, cabinet, bookshelf with the paper are from Crate & Barrel's Windham collection.

Gorgeous!

Thanks for sharing the fun photos! Good luck with your holiday company - hope all goes well!!!
 

I LOVE it Hope! It looks so awesome! Good for you. It did not take you long to put it all together.
 
Your room looks awesome! Thanks for sharing!
 
Hope, your room looks fantastic. :thumbsup2

I know what you mean about the tapestry in Gilbratar, my Mom got me a gorgeous pillow cover from there, it is stunning. I wish she got me about ten of them.
 
It's beautiful and looks really organized. You've inspired me to fix up my scrap area as my New Year's resolution. How did you get started?
 
Beautiful room - looks like a very appealing place to work in!
 
Your room looks so bright and airy and the sheers totally enhance the atmosphere. It must be such a nice, relaxing place to work in.

I bought a new house! :lmao: It's our first house, so I was very excited to have a space of my own. But it was a complete blank slate to start with. It's not like I had to move all the furniture out, and it's not like I was trying to repurpose existing furniture or anything. I had 2 Jetmax storage cubes, and the short white bookcase and everything else was new to me.
 
It looks great Hope!

I wish my stuff was as organized. You can tell you have ton of items, but it looks so well thought out that it isn't overwhelming.
 
Hope -- I am so jealous!!! I would love a spot to work other than my dining room table.

It looks fabulous! And I love Alice in Wonderland as well!

Enjoy!
 
Oh my GOSH! It is gorgeous! I LOVE the Alice collection! I am so envious. I love all things Disney, but I have never had a specific character or movie that I concentrate on. Your room makes me wish I DID!

I have been wanting to sort of redecorate my kitchen and now I will be leaning towards an "Alice's tea party" idea (if I can find things that fit the idea). WOOHOO!! THanks for sharing the great pictures. Happy creating in your new space!.............P
 
I love your room! My DS(10)'s room is smaller than that, but I think I could fit a fair bit in..... would he mind sleeping on the sofa do you think:rolleyes1:rotfl:
