A little project we the talented hubby and son undertook during the school holidays was turning a wardrobe full of junk into a study nook.....
Our home has very little bedrooms and there was no room for a desk in Fraser's room....we were getting tired of clearing off all his drawing stuff from the lounge and floor.
So now he has somewhere to draw, do homework or at least a place I can stick all his bits of paper.
This is what we started with...well I had already cleaned out most of the junk before this pic....

Lets face it he is a boy and not much was getting hung up in there anyways
Here is the rest of his junk....belongings from the inside...
So once it was cleaned out...the painting began....
The hubby made a simple desk at just the right height....
We then made a trip to IKEA and picked up a chair and mat...
a magnetic board....
Reused a pin up board we had lying around.....
Bought some hanging containers for pencils and bits and pieces....
A times table chart ......
and presto ...one happy little guy with his new space....
One happy mumma having somewhere to off load all the drawing creations....
We also purchase some little self adhesive battery operated LED lights and attached them under the top shelf, to light up the space should he need extra
He will outgrow this space but it buys us some time before we have to find other creative methods to create space in our home.
