I've been researching and planning and dreaming about my new craft room. Before I start making changes I'll show the new room as it exists right now.
Here's a sketch of the room. Each long wall is about twelve foot long. I created the same type of scale sketch for my old crafting area and then made cut outs for the shelves and tables so that I could move them around on paper.
Here's a picture of the room from the door. As you can see, I wasn't lying. This room is not currently being used for anything. I think we had a single bed in here once.
My favorite part of this room is "the nook". I've always thought that this would be the perfect spot for a desk or a hidden easy chair. Right now it's home to my husband's old stereo equipment from college. I shudder to think where this stuff will land. I will never understand men and their stereos...
This long wall will most likely be the new home for some shelves.
Since this room is kind of small I need to use every available space. Right now I'm thinking that I will remove these closet doors and make a sewing area out of the closet.
That's the before tour. Over the next few months I hope to be able to show this room transformed!

It's going to be great - it's a nice size and shape with great windows! Wish I had an extra room - although my dining room has served me well :)
I've been considering taking over the guest room as we only have guests a couple times a year. Can't wait to see the changes you make to the room.
I like it! A clean slate to work with!
