Calm down… I don’t really craft naked (though I’d never judge those of you who do.) As we’ve moved a lot I’m always looking for unique craft room ideas. In this particular home we lived it had a full basement. I decided to put my craft room on the unfinished side which also held the washer and dryer. I did this because it had a full wall of shelves already in place to hold all my goodies. Despite the room being “raw” as it were with bare wood and no ceiling I still found ways to make it fun and unique. The take away message here is don’t let your less than perfect spaces keep you from having fun with them. Use what you have and make it yours!

You’ve given me hope!! We’re remodeling a house, planning to two-week and build in a year or so. The basement is unfinished and BUGGY…and we don’t plan on spending the $$ to finish it…BUT, I can’t live without a crafting space in the meantime…your ideas inspire me to get things in gear and make it a happy place! Thank you!!
So glad to hear that Kim. Yeah sometimes you just have to make the most of what you have! Ü
I love it! I always secretly wonder about the posts I see with ‘perfect’ craft rooms! I would be neurotic about spilling paint or making a mess. Your craft space looks organized, lovely, but also perfectly utilitarian!
lol! Yeah this one would never make the cover of Better Homes & Gardens for sure but I loved it none the less!
Love your craft organization! Thanks for sharing at the #HomeMattersParty – we love partying with you! Hope to see you next Friday. 🙂

Appreciate that Lorelai. Thanks for visiting and for commenting. Ü
Love your blog!! My kinda crafter… I walk around the house and find stuff to repurpose all the time. I save twine and ribbons from other projects..I just love reusing things. And the sense of accomplishment when you are finished and give new life to something that was previously in ruin is indescribable! I too will have to make a craft area like your wonderful space!
Why thank you Mary. Ü Yep that’s me! I’ve done that more times than I can count… walking around looking for stuff. lol Thanks so much for your kind comment!
