A beginning to an End

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: To start a new beginning. A beginning to an end of messes. A beginning of organization. A beginning of less stress looking for that item that "was just right there the last time I looked". And hopefully, a beginning of a bond of 3 "sisters" sharing the messy bits and how we might get them more organized.

Here's the logistics:
~ Start with a bowl full of lemons 21 day challenge.
~ After we've succeeded, each of us in turn will suggest a new challenge until we are all successfully organized mammas.

I'm up for the challenge. Are you?
Ready. Set. GO!

Roadblock

MONEY MONEY MONEY by the pounds.  That is what I need to really get things done.  I want to do this "right", mostly because I don't want to redo it later when I have the money.  This is especially true in my craft room.  This is where I am the most and this is what needs the most work.  So I am stuck.  I want to paint the room, and yes that can wait and I can paint around the desk I want to mount to the wall, but it is the desk and shelves that I NEED to finish....and that takes the one thing I don't have $$$$$.  I know I sound like I am complaining, and I really don't mean to.  I have had a TON of $$$$ help to get as far as I have.  But I am not done.  I am no where near done and I don't want to wait til I get my taxes back to be done (That will be about a month).  UGH.  Besides that my emotional life is falling apart so I have less than NO motivation.

This concludes today's portion of my "PLEASE PITY ME RANT"....Thank you for listening.

    The link to the desk tops:

    The $20 table tops are the less deep ones. I think they are somewhere around 47 inches long. I had my neighbor use a circular saw to cut the board to fit.

    Measure your room and we can plan it out so you can start saving $$$. Until then, just keep dejunking. That is the hardest part of progress if you ask me!

    North wall 142 west wall 105.5
    The north wall needs to be shorter so I can leave room for the closet (which I think I am going to take the doors off of) I was thinking 18" for that. I also want them to sit about 30" high....

    http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/50121453 is the longer desktop which fits with the *new* corner desktop (also shows on that page). So I think I will do 2 corner pieces and 3 long ones. How many legs and brackets for the back do you think I will need?
