Progress on the junk room - making way for baby

One of my first posts was about the state of our study/craft room/junk room.  I'm sad to say it only got worse while we renovated our bathroom.  Here's some more "before" pics:

Yep, pretty out of control.

With the news that Geekling is going to be a big brother, we have had to clear it out to become the baby's room.  We've given away some of the furniture, donated a lot of useful items to the Salvation Army, thrown out a lot of junk and finally the only things that are left in the room are those things that will be staying there for the baby:

When we get new drawers for Geekling, we'll move the old white drawers and wardrobe into bub's room and can start packing away the clothes that fill the two pink nappy boxes and the large cardboard box that is between the change table and the basinette.

I plan to make a cover for the glider as the fake leather has flaked terribly.  We also need to put up a curtain rail and curtains.  The cot will go where that box is, with the box providing some storage for unseasonable or larger clothes.

Will tidy the bookshelf when I work out where exactly it will go in the room.

There is still some ways to go and lots of little craft projects I've got planned.  Here's my Pinterest Nursery Board, if you're interested to see some of my planned prjects and inspirations

Before photos of the study/craft/junk room (#27)

Here's the before photos of our study/craft/junk room so you can see the magnitude of the task ahead.

In the corner, buried by junk, is a corner piece of our couch.  On top of the basinette is a box with old bedsheets donated by my mother-in-law to my sewing projects.  By the vacuum is an overflowing basket of clothes that need to be mended or sorted into my fabric scraps and button container.

 This is my desk and bookshelf.  There's a large stack of cook books I'm getting rid of next to my desk.

Hubby and his desk.  It seems an avalance of old bags, papers and junk is always about to fall.

Progress report -

• Cleared one box worth of books and random items to go to Lifeline;
• Removed the corner couch and replaced with a free filing cabinet that we were given by Geekling's daycare;
• Filled an old laundry hamper with sheets that can be used for sewing projects and fabric scraps;
• Organised beading supplies and sewing supplies into two boxes for storage;
• Listed Geekling's old basinette and port-a-cot on ebay.  

So far we have a bit more floor space, the space looks more organised but a long way to go!
