Inner Sanctum

Okay, so the name "Inner Sanctum" was coined by my husband and it has just stuck.  Even the kids refer to the room as the "Inner Sanctum" even though they don't know what it means!  So, I've been working hard trying to get the room organized and put together, but it has been very overwhelming and it wasn't a priority in getting settled, so it got put aside.  But since this room is also our guest room and we had company coming, I needed to put it in high gear!

So here are a couple of before pics.  I shudder just looking at them!  Can you see why I was so overwhelmed?!

It will be a while before I want to see another moving box!



And, of course, here is all of my glorious fabric!


So, I still have to finish the curtains, hang a couple of really cool floating shelves from Ikea and some art and it will be pretty much finished.  Everything is pretty much where it will stay, but I need to go through each little section and purge, but it is NOT so overwhelming anymore.  I like going in that room now!

Here is an awesome chair that turns into a twin bed.

And you know how much I love, love, love Ikea!  I had so much fun loading up the cart at the store.


All of my treasures have happy homes and it makes me smile every time I go in that room.




This is my new desk/workspace.  Above the desk will go floating shelves from Ikea, which will get rid of a lot of stuff off of the top of my desk.


This is my paper and more treasures!  Does anyone want to come over and play?

Your "inner sanctum" (sounds like something only Glenn should touch) looks very beautiful. I agree with Ms. D, the wall color is perfect! Hope this room brings many hours of joy!
