My craft room

[TurtleLvr]

I've been in a "mood" lately over some things so the last 2 days I've buried myself in my craft room. Reorganizing and adding the new wire storage shelves (well, dh did them). I got a new embroidery/sewing machine so I needed to move my sewing table out where I could use it to actually sew.

 

This is my storage area.

Mostly this is of my tortoise pen.

Sewing table area.

Bag wall!

My closet.

DH will just have to send you to me for a week!

 

Funny thing is one of the cats was in there "helping" me and I didn't realize he was still in there. I hear this sneeze coming from the tort pen and thought "what the?" I looked in and Monty gave me a "are you seriously thinking that was me" look! The cat was under the pen.

Very cool I need/want to do something like that to my "yarn room" my DH was supposed to build me shelves and cubbyholes but he has yet to do that now its just all over the place in bins and stacked in the closet

That room is to die for!

I'm lucky to have a yarn closet but that's OK; all I do is crochet, it's the best hobby I've ever had.

Very cool room. I could just come and play for a while in this room? Can anyone say PLAY DATE???????

I am so jealous I'll take your hubby for a week!..maybe two lol

[imanurse55]

Wow- what a great craft room!!! I want one!!!! Enjoy your space!!!!

[Daisy]

Great craft room. Mine won't be as elaborate, because hubby would never put up shelves or stack bins, so I will have to be content with my plastic bins being stacked on top of each other. At least the yarn is colorized...I got that far We are planning on painting that room anyway, so having it be a "perfect" craft room, will have to wait a bit longer .

[tralee]

I love it! You are one lucky lady!

[Sweetpossibilities]

:drool:drool I want a craft room so bad! My fiance promised me though that when we move to NC next year once we can get ourselves a house I get a craft room. So it's a ways down the road in my future but at least it's there lol.

[annmcc1976]

I'm thinkin of as soon as i get some money I'm going to buy a lil paint and paint the inside of my craft closet (bedroom closet). proly a blue but rite now i'm re organizeing it.. I been collecting big plasitc milk crates to sort my yarn. (act as shelfs) and once im done Re-oragnizing I"ll paint!!! . then I can go hide in my closet

[Peggy85225]

So cool and neat. When are we invited for a crafting party?

Sue ~ I love your room and most especially the turtle pen, as I recall don't you also have an outside one too???

 

I am getting ideas too - you see I am pretty much at the cusp of the empty nest thing - and in a year or two dd's room will be emptied of all furniture - there really isn't much left in it - then I can repaint it from the "screaming yellow zonkers" paint color it is - back to off white.:lol:lol:lol:lol

 

But the irony of it all is when I finally get my yarn/sewing room - there is a possibility we may relocate - but I will just make sure the stuff in there is real "portable" and easy to take with me - like the storage shelves and drawers.

 

I like your wirebox shelving and your cube drawer units much better than the plastic kind - where did you pick them up?

 

Sneezing turtle - that's cute and the look he must have given you sound priceless!

[TurtleLvr]

Thanks! I love it!

Those wire racks can be put on the floor too. DH just put them on the wall so I had some extra floor space.

Dh is still working on the outside one. Just needs a few more tweeks and it will be ready to go.

 

We got the wire racks at Target (on sale for $14.99 each and I have 3 up there). Really easy to put together. They go on sale all the time.

I would love to have a room all of my own. That is my dream. Yours looks great.

What a wonderful room!! Mine isn't nearly as nice and organized and I love the wire shelving. May have to redo mine to include some. It looks ideal for displaying yarn.

[lilygirl115]

I am so impressed! And jealous! My crafty son would make short work of having everything on the floor by the day's end if I tried that.

[sunnywolfgar]

Looks great.

[mandymae]

WOW SUE! Great room!

 

P.S. Of all the things I managed to notice in your photos, I see a Kasey Kahne hat...are you/your dh fans?!?

[meowy]

I love how you have your yarn and then the bins underneath. I just throw my fabric and yarn into various rubbermaid style bins. I like your way better. I never know what colors I have of anything ugh! I'll save this open so he can see it later, that'd make my crafty area much nicer.

 

We call it the craft room but it also has a bed and the extra blue chair in it, since we got an exercise bike.. the chair had to move somewhere else .. and that's where it went hehe! So I need shelves since the floor is occupied haha

[Startigerlily]

Wow!!! I'm jealous of your organization. I have to work on cleaning and organizing my craft room this weekend. I had some stuff stored in the spare room but had to move everything to my craft room when my cousin moved in. Fall semester at the community college starts soon and we're going to need the space for studying and doing art work.

[jenlovescrochet]

I'm so incredibly jealous. That would be sooo awesome. Enjoy every minute you can in there!! as I'm sure you will!
