It’s no secret that I love to craft & create. I see things that I think are cute {and don’t want to pay $$$ for} and come home to create it myself. This all started when I was in elementary school. I would make pillows and walk around the neighborhood selling them. True story. From there, it turned into scrapbooking, stamping and now sewing & embroidery. I thought it would be fun to give you a tour of my where it all goes down…my craft room.
Lets start with a before picture.
This picture was taken just after we moved into our house.
3 years ago next month.

{After}
Pardon the mess. This is actually clean for my room. I just have a lot of stuff. It’s hard to organize it all. Eventually, I want floor to ceiling shelving. But, this room is only temporary until baby #2 comes (God willing & in a few years). At that time, D and I will have to combine our “offices”, that will be interesting to say the least.
sewing machine
embroidery machine
Ott light (a must for crafters)
under that table is fabric & thread
tv
scrapbook paper
wooden tags
cards
felt pieces
some fabric
everything under the sun
ironing board aka my workspace
cricut
shirts & onesies & burp cloths
baking fun
bows & embellishments
desk & computer
So there you have it. It may look like a hot mess to you. I know where {mostly} everything is.
I reorganize it once a week.
It’s my favorite place in the house, my personal sanctuary.
{Coming Up}
I’ve received a lot of questions about my machine and embroidery. Next week, I’ll be starting a series of posts focused on embroidery. If you have any questions that you would like answered, ask away!
I've been looking for a new light (my crappy $5 Ikea light really REALLY sucks), so I will look into an Ott light! Did you get it somewhere like Home Depot? Or Michael's?
Looks great!
I'm so jealous of all your fun craft supplies and your craft room! It's so hard to find a place to keep my craft stuff so it's kind of scattered in a few different areas!
