Mary Elizabeth's favorite color is PINK (obviously!) so she really went for it, using Sherwin Williams "Exuberant Pink", in a satin finish for the walls and in a latex gloss for the desk top . . . with her favorite black and white zebra stripes for accents and storage pieces.
Mary Elizabeth is a Weight Watchers Leader and needs lots of storage for materials so she stretched the budget to purchase three storage carts and a number of small bins and containers.
Bookshelves were repurposed from other rooms. It's a plus that Mary Elizabeth is a whiz with her pink power tools!

Even the desk accessories express Mary Elizabeth's love for pink . . . and bling!
The room still needs some tweaking but the "bones" are done. Mary Elizabeth is collecting simple black frames and plans to use one wall in the room for a collage of favorite family photos. And she's still sorting through boxes of office and craft supplies that had previously been stored in the attic.
The "door" craft table will give her lots of space to work and create
Here's the budget:
2 2-drawer file cabinets from the Habitat ReStore @ $30. each = $60.00
Hollow wooden door at ReStore = $10.00
Paint = $50.00
2 sheets Pegboard @ Home Depot = $14.00
Hardware = $10.00
Bulletin Board @ WalMart = $10.00
Assorted Storage bins and carts from Big Lots = $125.00
4 Curtain panels at $8.00 each from Christmas Tree Shoppe= $32.00
Total = $311.00

Day #1 - Clean, prep, and paint walls (2 coats)
Day # 2 - Shop for storage pieces and accessories; paint pegboard, and desk top
Day # 3 - Touch up, hang pegboards, bulletin board and curtains, load the room.

Now my favorite Weight Watcher leader has plenty of space for both work . . .
and PLAY!
