Perhaps you can relate to the following: Anytime I sit down to do a project for this blog it inevitably involves running upstairs, sifting through three very messy drawers, running downstairs to the basement, sifting through large plastic bins, and repeating the process as necessary. It’s not working. I need a craft room. I need said room to be on the main level of my house. Actually, the kitchen would work nicely. I’ve contemplated getting rid of my pots and pans and filling the kitchen cupboards with scrapbook paper and hot glue. My husband is trying to be supportive, but isn’t really on board with this idea. Men. So practical sometimes.
So yes, someday I would love my room to look something like this.
But the space below is what I have to work with. Embarrassing isn’t it? My cleaning-stash-all-junk closet that leads down to the scary basement. Not ideal, but all I’ve got.
However, I think with a little ingenuity I can create something like this! We’ll have to just wait and see now won’t we?
How about you? Do you have a beautiful craft room? Show me! I promise not to hate you too much. Where do you do your projects and how do you keep it all organized?

Nope, no craft room for me either. I run up the stairs, down the stairs, in the garage, etc. Just like you! So I would love to see what you put together! 🙂

Okay, I am so glad that first picture isn't your craft room. Because I would be so jealous that I couldn't love you any more! ;D
I, like you, have to run all over the house. I have some stuff in the garage, some in a chest at the foot of my bed. Some in the hall closet. And some hidden in cabinets in my dinning room!
The kitchen is a GREAT idea, but I like to bake too much too!
I think the kids should all sleep in one room so that I can have a craft room!
I have a dedicated space in our basement, but I want it upstairs also. I don't have natural light in that room and I just don't use it. Sometime in the future.
alas, my craft "room" is a table in my living room with a bin and bags under it to hold all my stuff… I too dream of a real craft room!
Ha Beth, this made me laugh. I saw that awesome first pic and thought "Wow, this girl is good!!" And then you were like, just kidding. lol. Luckily I have my own office, but I'd love to have some shelving and nice containers and such. It seems like all my craft projects spread all over my desk, the floor, and the dining table. We've been eating at the couch for a week. 🙂
