SO I have been a crafter for a LONG time! and have moved from every supply I owned fitting into a bag to a basement craft room to an closet craft room to a craft room once my oldest moved out. Once she moved out permanently (she got married).. I didn't look back and just moved my supplies in without changing much- not the carpet (a mauve-y pink), not the wall color (a bold bright lime green), not the curtains . And because I have been crafting for a long while I needed to purge! So here are some of my before pictures. OH yea did I mentioned it is a converted attic so I have slanted walls!
THE BEFORE
- LIGHT.. the room color sucked up the lighting, my desk storage blocked the window.
- SPACE...even though I had 2 tables i felt like I was crafting in a 12x12 space!
- STORAGE ... I know I Had too much goodness! but also my impish puppy was constantly pulling out things from the baskets and I spent more time chasing him that crafting!
So for my redo I made a wish list which helped m prioritize want I wanted.
- LIGHT
- FULL SPACE DESK with minimal on desk Storage - maybe even with enough room for a friend!
- Off the Floor - I really wanted to not have things stacked on the floor
- A dedicated die cutting area
- NO LIME GREEN
So here is some of the in progress pictures
I cleared everything I could out and starting rearranging the furniture.. I had enough space for 3 additional 6 cube storage units!
