Great Craft Workspaces!

I did get the guest bedroom cleaned out last weekend.  It is coming together but I kinda left one thing out when I was thinking about it last week.  See it is a guest bedroom maybe 2% of the time.  The rest of the time it is my craft room.  So I need some inspiration of what I should add to the room to complement my sewing desk to make it a functional work space.  Here are some spaces that have got me thinking!

I love how compact but functional this space is with all the built ins.


Chez Larsson- craft space

Hmm - again more built ins.  But also cute frames and a place to post things.

Ok - so this is fantastic!  A place to hold things you need plus something decorative.
Ballard is always on their game.  I love the way this workspace is laid out.

Oh what I could do with a wall sized cork board.

Hmmm - again more cork boards.  And a beautiful collection of white vases.

Ok - so this is more of a bed shot than a workspace shot, but it shows how both can exist in the same place.

What is there not to like about this room?  Fantastic roman shade, great color on the walls, and beautiful bedding.

How adorable is this!  I love french memo board treatment on the wall.

  1. I love Traditional Home Office: 8th pic. Thanks for this post. I'm going to be doing an office-craft room / guest room soon too. Mine has an open door space so I have to keep it neat & streamline but pic 8 has given me some good ideas. :)

  2. I love the sophisticated brown walls with the robin's egg blue chair and accents. But then the very next picture is the white one that is so fresh and I love that too! Maybe two craft rooms - one for me, one for the kids! Thansk for sharing such pretty and inspiring photos.

  4. The rooms are all so inspiring and beautiful. I am in the process of working on my office/studio. I hope to have it complete by the end of summer. I am using the palest blush pink for the walls and white trim. I hope it turns out!

  9. I love the second one and the ballard one. I think my must haves are lot of workspace, and the ability to reach most of my stuff from my workspace. Good lighting is a must too!

  17. Those wall-sized cork board looks great for everyone who loves to keep their ideas and inspiration in a place they can easily see. Also, the design as shown with those storage spaces is fantastic for storing up your craft materials and keeping the work area neat.
