Craft Room Reveal

I think I finally finished my Craft Room or at least I am happy so far, but like all women I will change it again.  Somewhere down the road I will get tired of something or what I thought was organized will not work for me, but for now I am in love with the new colors and all the storage I have. 

Hope you enjoy my pics.  I just could not wait to share.  I wanted a craft room that could have the doors left open in the house.  I like that is a useful craft room, but one that I will enjoy sharing with someone. 

This first pics are the before and after views from the entry door.

AFTER


This first area has to be on of my favorites in the entire room.  This my embroidery area.

On the shelf above my work area are pictures of me and my daddy.  I only have these two and since I miss him everyday it is nice to have his pics close by in my craft room.  I do need some kind of cute poem or something for my chalk board.  If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

 

I also
found the cutest pair of wooden scissors.  I saw someone on pinterest with a pair in their craft room and knew I had to find some.  Hobby Lobby of course.  I seem to be able to find anything there. 

. 

I love these pics I found on the internet.  One is for my love of sewing and the other for my love of crocheting.  I think they turned out cute.

This area is my desk and this was my husband's when he was a child and I just could not part with it.  This thing has been moved, painted and been in so many different rooms in my house and has been an all around work horse.  I started removing some of the paint and I kinda like the rustic look of the top of it and I am not sure if I have decided to repaint or refinish.  

I added some "girly" stuff to the area... flowers!  They always make me feel good.  And, for some reason I have fallen in love with pink.  Hence the pink and gray color scheme!

.




I totally added lots of working areas in  my room and this one is for cutting fabric, gluing and what ever!

This is my sewing table and also holds my cricut machine (right there on the far right) barely in the pic, but it is finally out on a table where I can use it.  It used to be on a shelf and I had to drag it out to use it.  I live having stations where everything is available and ready to work!

SORRY FOR SO MANY PICTURES BUT I REALLY WANTED TO SHOW ALL OF MY ROOM.  I JUST LOVE IT THANKS TO PINTEREST FOR THE IDEAS.  I WOULD LIKE TO ADD SOME OF THE PRETTY THINGS, YET USEFUL THAT I INCORPARATED INTO MY ROOM. AFTERWARDS I WILL SHOW YOU SOME NEAT IDEAS YOU CAN USE IN YOUR CRAFT ROOM MAYBE  OR MAYBE THEY WILL INSPIRE YOU AS OTHERS HAVE INSPIRED ME!

This is an old desk top box I had at work for years and decided to take it home to use.

This is my great grandmothers last tatting work she was doing along with her old glasses, her needle and a rose.  I just had to have them in my craft room.  Also with this is an old sewing box.  I just need to find some old thread spools for the top and it will be perfect.
 

My jar of buttons that I must say I have had for 30 years maybe.  Bought them at a yard sale years ago for .50 cents.  I am so glad to be able to have them available when I need a button and they are such cute deco for a craft room.  Don't you think?
 

My fabric bins looked so blah so I thought I would add just a little decoration to them.  Gotta love Hobby Lobby for decoration.  I found just what I wanted.

My most favorite in the entire room is the birthday gift I received from my grandsons!  "Love them to the moon and back"

 

Like I mentioned before I just had to have some wooden scissors in my craft room.  So darn cute!



 

Have to admit that I do love my cute little form holding my scissors.  She is just so cute and goes nicely on my "girly" desk.

NOW THAT I HAVE SHOWN YOU MY WORKING AREAS AND MY DECORATIONS, I WANT TO SHARE SOME OF THE STORAGE I USED AND LOTS OF THE IDEAS I GOT FROM PERUSING PINTEREST. 

 

This is one thing I was so tickled to discover a use for.  My old Kuerig cup holder was going out to the trash until I thought it would work great to keep my embroidery floss in.  It works so good and keeps things neat and handy by my machine.

 

 I can not tell you how excited I was to find these cute little jars at Ikea.  They have made my life so much easier.  They hold all the little beads, brads and buttons for easy access.  Got to Love Ikea!

Like I said you gotta love Ikea and their storage systems!

 

 

I HAVE ENJOYED SHARING MY NEW CRAFT ROOM WITH YOU AND HOPE YOU HAVE ENJOYED IT.  I HOPE IT WAS A LITTLE INSPIRATION SOMEWHERE IN THESE POSTS.  PLEASE COMMENT AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!
