DIY Craft Space Love

DIY Craft Space Ideas

Most creative and crafty people love DIY ideas and that’s just what I have for you today!

I always love a splash of color to brighten up any space I’m working in, so go a little bold with your paint.  You can always paint again, right?  What an el-cheapo way to change a room!

Use an old table or door and add filing cabinets for support to create an instant desk.  These are the kind of projects I like…quick with big impact.

Reuse two old nightstands to make your own desk with lots of storage space!  Add some shelves above and you are all set.

I would take the top drawers and simply hang them on the wall or try something like this awesome idea…

Have you seen this??  I love it!

    I love this! That rug, those curtains..sigh! My best idea is to separate a vintage suitcase and use the bottom with the handle under a table as storage. I painted mine, but the possibilities are endless.

    the first picture is exactly how I want my room to be.. the shade of blue is just perfect. I dont have a craft room but I like my computer room to be like this as I draw my art digitally, and this space would be perfect for inspiration! 🙂

    Oh to have my craft room that CLEAN and organized! Mine looks like its been through a tornado! I have this problem that if I put it “away”, I forget about it. So things that I need to do soon, or want to work on, are all laying about “reminding” me….then its such a mess I can’t find stuff!

    Love…love…love this room! What a great way to reuse and recycle those endtables, and the drawers on the walls for storage is pure genius. I will definitely be sharing these ideas with friends..thanks so much for sharing it!

    Love the drawers hanging on the walls! I often go to this great home supply recycling place we have in my town and stand in the aisle of lonely, unmatched drawers thinking “I know I could do great things with you, but what?” This is going to be one of those great things!
