We are still buried in boxes, but I am so happy to say that we&#8217;ve actually made a dent in &#8220;The Wall&#8221; (the boys named it that because our front room was nothing more than a wall of boxes). We still have a long ways to go until it&#8217;s finished, but here&#8217;s a sneak peek at what we&#8217;ve gotten done so far.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/craftsbykatie\/3818476744\/\" title=\"&quot;Before&quot; picture of &quot;The Wall&quot; by kroets, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2444\/3818476744_20b6172fb2.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;Before&quot; picture of &quot;The Wall&quot;\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Before we started, you couldn&#8217;t even get into the room. There were two bookshelves and a dresser blocking the doorway totally. Where did they go? Keep looking and find out!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/craftsbykatie\/3818476190\/\" title=\"What's Still Left To Do by kroets, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2467\/3818476190_47ca3f1dc1.jpg\" alt=\"What's Still Left To Do\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Ack! These are just some of the boxes (well, all the ones in here) that still need to be tackled and dealt with. It may be a while before this room reaches completion!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/craftsbykatie\/3818478744\/\" title=\"Bookshelves &amp; Drawers in place! by kroets, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2506\/3818478744_d5f36233a1.jpg\" alt=\"Bookshelves &amp; Drawers in place!\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Ah ha! Here is one of the bookshelves. It&#8217;s up against the front wall of the room and now actually has all of the shelves on it and books slowly starting to fill it in. I&#8217;m still not sure where the missing drawer is to my plastic drawers but it has to be in a box somewhere!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/craftsbykatie\/3817668119\/\" title=\"Drawers &amp; Other Bookshelf by kroets, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2491\/3817668119_f5d38de3bf.jpg\" alt=\"Drawers &amp; Other Bookshelf\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">You found them! There is the second bookshelf and the dresser that used to block the doorway. I got them into the room and into place and now they&#8217;re slowly filling up. The two &#8220;missing&#8221; drawers are actually out in the living room on the couch. When I moved this in, there wasn&#8217;t room to actually put the drawers back in. The top drawer is broken (yes mom, I know you fixed it but it broke again..I&#8217;m thinking duct tape) so nothing is being stored in it until I can find a way to fix it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/craftsbykatie\/3817667429\/\" title=\"Paper Sorter by kroets, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3425\/3817667429_2fdfe85ff1.jpg\" alt=\"Paper Sorter\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Just another angle. You can see how I got the paper sorter up on top and all of the papers organized into it by color. The two drawers that aren&#8217;t broken and are in are storing my stamp sets. I&#8217;m going to have one more drawer for that, as soon as I get it into the dresser and emptied out of other things.<\/p>\n<p>So, that&#8217;s my progress! It&#8217;s slow but it&#8217;s coming along. Other things keep getting in the way of unpacking!
