His clothing was on a low rack in the master bedroom walk-in closet. We take a minimalist approach to clothing so it makes sense to group that all together and save space. <br /><br />His toys were (and are) in a corner of the living room in stacks of plastic drawers. The lower half of the entertainment center holds some items which change as them months pass, sometimes blocks, sometimes games. The top half used to hold our art supplies until I thought to put a small tv in there and watch old home videos; so now art supplies are in our very large bathroom with the art easel. <br /><br />He never worked much in his room; rather he would obtain a material and work in the living room or hallway. <br /><br />I always thought about curtaining the two areas off from one another, but never got around to it. <br /><br />We have a small, tight apartment, with my bedroom serving as sewing room, library (I have a LOT of books), supply room and bedroom; the master bedroom closet holds clothing and seasonal storage. And our hallway now holds our keyboard. <br /><br />This leaves our living room mostly free for one side as a dining room and set up my laptop; a large floor space for working, two bookcases and comfy couch and chair for reading together.Jessica https://www.blogger.com/profile/07750741589516318310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3810423759943558521.post-15868717199004319222012-05-05T01:00:46.949-04:002012-05-05T01:00:46.949-04:00Wow!

Can you elaborate sometime?Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13832883863318381511noreply@blogger.com
