Stitching Haven is Complete

Well, my little Stitching Haven is complete! Can you believe it only took me an hour to transform a hideously ugly room into my own little retreat? This is the view from the door and if you look in the mirror you can see the quilt that hangs on the opposite wall next to my comfy chair. The table cloth that is in dire need of ironing is actually one that my step-grandfather's wife made when she was alive. I figured it added a beautiful touch to my little church table that has seen better days!

And this is the view from my chair! I have some great lighting in my room and I can sit in here any time of the day and just sew to my little hearts content. I can easily get to my floss and stack them on the table to get all of the colors that I need for my project. Those wonderful galvenized pails from Target come in quite handy to hold my card stock for some cross stitched embellished cards. The cute little tins are holding some of my specialty floss that can't be put on a bobbin or touch other thread, plus it helps keep the cat and dog hair from ruining them as well!

Everything I need is at my fingertips and it feels absolutely heavenly! Can you believe I even have two desks in this room as well? =) Yep, it is also our office! As soon as I get our desks all put together and the rest of the pictures hung I will be sure and post more pictures. As for right now, this is my quaint little space that I have truly fallen in love with!

Happy Organizing!
