Loft Redux

I love redux. It's a cool word.  "Brought back" as in literature, film music, etc.  Well, I have once again redone my loft, or Studio as I like to think of it.  This is the room where I work on the computer, read, watch TV, work on minis, paint, and so on.  It's my special part of the house.  Umm, don't mind the dusty plant in the foreground.  I"ll get to it.  :)  Here's what it looks like heading up the stairs to my little world.

After the flood forced us to redo the downstairs, I decided to fix this room up.

I took out my old cutting table and brought in two six foot tables (donated to me by a friend).  I mod podged the one, and I'll get to the other soon.  The neatest part about this redo was that I took fabric and skirted the edges all around the tables, so my stash is totally hidden and everything looks neat.  I also found a smaller futon at a fire sale at a place around the corner and it's perfect for the space!

Here's what it used to look like:

And here is what it looks like now!  I know it's a bit busy, and it looks better in person, but it's got all my goodies in it and I totally love this space.  You can see my covered toy box in the middle of the room.  I have a tray on it so it's hard to see the fabric, but it matches the colors.

Not bad.  Now everyone is complaining that I spend all of my time in here.  Well, sorry!  When you get it just how you want it, what do you expect?  :)
