Rebecca had a big, empty room that was great for spontaneous square-dancing, but not much else. Not being much of a square-dancer, she decided to turn it into a craft room instead. Oh no, problem alert! All she had was a budget of $0! Did she let that stop her? Psh. Don’t be silly.
First she scraped up some fundage by selling a few unwanted items on craigslist. Then she used the cash to purchase the larger items of furniture, and found a few freebies from shopping the house (and maybe the alley) along the way. Now it’s a colorful craftopia! Check it out on her blog Older and Wisor.

September 30, 2011 at 6:51 PMWow, I love it! It looks like a room that would’ve cost hundreds to re-do. I love the chalkboard. I’d want to play teacher all day instead of craft. 🙂
