This is the last post in the craft studio series. I hope you’ve been inspired by them. If you didn’t see part 1, part 2, or part 3, you can catch up by clicking on the ones you missed. Now, I’m revealing the “workspace” which is code for my table and chair.
I’m head-over-heels in love with this space. Even though it’s about one-third of the space I had in our last house, I’ve put a lot of thought into exactly how I wanted it to look. During this series, a lovely reader, Sage, asked for tips on keeping a craft room organized, so look out for that this coming week.
The table is just a plain work table from Walmart. I covered it with a vintage sheet that I found on Etsy. The chair is a vintage captain’s chair that we picked up at a local antique shop. My husband primed it and spray painted it with gold spray paint. Then, I painted part of it with the mint color that I used for the faceplates and outlet covers. I added some embellishments that create a feeling of inspiration for me.
I bought the lace curtains on Amazon, and my husband gave me the clock for Christmas.
And, of course, I bought fresh flowers to add a little more loveliness. Shouldn’t it be a rule that all newly decorated rooms include fresh flowers? I think so.
So, there you have it. My new craft studio. I plan on spending lots of time in here.
Loved the 4-part tour–you are so organized! I like your use of color and assorted items such as glass, metal and wood. I can certainly see a lot of inspiration and great ideas happening in that room!
Thanks Denise! I had a lot of fun deciding what I wanted it to look like and then making it a reality. It took a good deal of work, but it’s definitely worth it.
I agree, fresh flowers make every room more inviting. Your craft studio is amazeballs. Thanks for giving us an inside look at “where the magic happens.”
Can’t wait to read your organization tips!

Thanks Sage! Hopefully there will be lots of magic this year!
LOVE your craft room!! I’m a studio space junkie…I love to look at magazines to see what fun, creative spaces people are working in. It is so inspiring! My favorite magazine is Where Women Create. Not only do I love the great photography and the studios they highlight, but the stories are so motivational. I only wish it came out once a month instead of quarterly! I absolutely love my craft room. The only thing it is missing is a big comfy chair to read in. One day I hope to rearrange the space a little to include a window seat for reading and extra storage.
Thanks Dana! That’s one of my favorite magazines, too. Oh goodness–I wish it came out every month, too–my bank account would suffer but my inspiration tank would be filled.
Can I come over and play?
Hahahaha…it does look fun, doesn’t it?
I’m absolutely in LOVE with your craft room. I haven’t been visiting yor blog for some days so I took the whole tour.
I would love to be this organized. The thing I love the most, as someone already said, is the combination of different materials and inspiration. I would get lost in there for days.
Congratulations. It’s lovely!
Thanks Joana! I’m in love with it.
