My Craft Room

Here are some pics of my craft room aka My Happy Place. Please note I had just had a huge tidy up, it never looks like this.

Here's my table, it was our old kitchen one. I love the glass top, great for cutting and get messy stuff on.


Here's where I store my pens & inky stuff. The lil' shelves that my pens are in are made by Fellowes and were 99p each from home bargains. I got 4 but wish I had bought a couple more now.


Here's where I store my punches. The table used to be in my son's room for his computer, I can't throw anything away, you never know when it will come in handy.


Here's where I keep my stamps, papers, card & other bits & bobs. The two drawers were rescued from hubby's work when they had a clear out, added a bit of worktop left over from our kitchen.


In this corner I keep card blanks, chipboard and yep! other bits & bobs.


Where do I start with this pic? On the fab gridded shelves from Costco I keep EVERYTHING, ribbon, flowers, gems, card, glitter, my BIA, doiley's, lace. Lots of other stuff too.


Here's my sewing machine, I have had it for yonks! but it never lets me down. The computer table is hubby's old one.


This is my lovely Hubby's area.


My scrapbooking stuff and lots of junk is stored behind these wardrobe doors. The boxes and bags on top have cards in.


Here's where I take my pics, the shelf was another rescue from Hubby's work.


This trolley was nabbed from my Mum when she re-did her kitchen. I keep my beloved Big-Shot, dies & embossing folders on here.


Thanks for looking around my craftroom, hope you like it and maybe got some ideas for your craft area.

I did mention that Wayne had sorted out my craftroom for me whilst he was off work recently, so I had a little tidy up earlier and took a couple of pics to show you. I just love it, I was chuffed to bits when he told me what he was planning, he spent ages looking for ideas on Pinterest, bless him.

The black boxes above have ribbons & embellies etc in, the drawers under my Ebosser have all my dies in. The white shelves to the right were the old red ones that I bought from a second hand shop. Wayne painted them up white and they are perfect for my punches. One of my fave new things is the huge bin under my desk. Can you see the owl on top of my pens? Bradley bought her for me for mothers day, she is so cute.


The white shelves above and all the black boxes are from Ikea, all my stamps, paper pads, flowers etc are stored in these. You can just see my new rug, we bought this for my two kitties to lay on, whenever I'm in here so are they.


He even spray painted the plastic storage boxes black to match the others. He created a space for me to take pics of my cards with my daylight lamps and the little bathroom shelves on the left have been fastened on with wheel ties to hold my ribbon rolls. This side of the room is where I store my scrapbook stuff.

Hope you enjoyed having a little peek at my newly sorted craftroom. I just LOVE it in there and it is now so easy to keep tidy.

What a fab space you have. Love all the storage places and your recycling of old furniture. Must admit I am the same when it comes to items that could go in my craft room.

Looks absolutely fabulous shug I could spend all day looking at craft rooms Ive barely ever looked at a colouring tutorial apart from a couple when I first started with PMs lol but I've seen LOADS of craft rooms I love them!! I love I can shut the door on mine & forget about it whether its messy or tidy, its up to me & no one else needs see it lol. I'm in the conservatory at the mo & we spend most of our time in there so it really is doing my head in cus it looks a mess having craft stuff in the corner all the time.......I need my craft room back..... Do ya fancy coming sort it & decorate it for me lol.
Love yours totally hun & I never throw things away either & when I finally do I end up regretting it further down the line at some point lol.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx

OMGOSH! I want to come play! I admire you crafters that have your own little "happy place". I still use your dining room table with 1 large cupboard and 1 small cupboard and a flimsy metal rack to hold some bits and bobs! Oh how I long for a room like this! And I TOO! Never throw anything away! LOL

Hi Donna, ooh I love seeing your craft room - you're so good that every thing has it's own pace, I love how you have boxes and cubby holes for everything and that hubby has a space too:) My hubby's space is on the Dining room table, while I am in my room :( He would never fit in my room! Happy Crafting! Hug, Teresa xxx

What a great display of all your crafty things. I'm so envious. I can never find anything in my craft room - I have lots of storage but very disorganised. I also share the room with my hubby who complains that he looks like a glitter ball when he's been working in there. Very nice.

I'm really green with envy!!!!I've got a small room to store stuff in one large cupboard and house my computer but it's not big enough for even the smallest work table.

Unknown said...

Sharon said...

OMW... what an awesome craft space you have Donna. I am gobsmacked at how much stuff you have. Everything looks so organised, which is what I love. Your Happy Place is definitely a cool place to hide and play in. xx

Teresa said...
