Craft room progress

It’s not a lot of progress, but I can see it coming together.
I am putting this room together without spending any money, so I am using what I have or has been gifted to me.
036
Filing cabinet was gifted. I will be adding a skirt to the storage areas under the table to hide the junk.
Shelving will be installed on the wall above the sewing machine with storage bins. The work surface will be trimmed out and painted.
035
The brass on the fireplace will be painted out and the mirror installed properly. I am going to make a cover for the ironing board
034
The wardrobe was gifted to me. The closet will get proper doors. This is where I store all of my picture frames.
037
The bed was also gifted to me. Since this is the only window, I have to come up with a treatment that won’t block the little bit of light that comes in.
I haven’t spent a dime other than on the mdf to make the work surface.
Is it perfect, heck no, but it is functional and gives me a space to create without any distractions.
