First of all, I am kicking things off with a tour around my craft room which I am been working on for MONTHS! It is finally time to reveal the entire thing to y’all. Just a heads up that this post has affiliate links in it. I am going to start in the center of the room because this table rocks my world! My husband built this table from scraps in our wood pile. It is HUGE and works perfectly for my needs. We did purchase a sheet of Plexiglas for the top which turned out to be pretty expensive. It was well worth it and this table should last me for years to come!
I don’t have build plans for the table but for those looking to make their own, he built the table in three pieces. The two end pieces are basically shelving units and the top was separate when we brought it into the room. We screwed everything together once it was in place. The ends are both great for storage while the middle is open allowing me to have two chairs for working.
We will talk more about those great baskets that are on the bottom a bit later. That top shelf is what I want to focus on right now!
This Rectangular Wire Tray from Walmart fits 15 mason jars perfectly! It allowed me to sort my paint pens by color and type.
Next to it, I picked up a kitchen organizer like this one to sort all of my large items that I use often. I had these stacked before and hated the hassle of needing that one item on the bottom. This fixes that problem perfectly!
Those gray tufted bar stools are from Target and they are so comfortable! I would highly recommend them! The rug I found on clearance at Rugs USA but it appears they are sold out. I would highly recommend Rugs USA for affordable area rugs however.
I have a few things on top of my work table including this lazy susan full of mason jars. I love having my tools within easy reach. The work lights I use are these clip on magnifying lamps. I have two of them on either side of the table.
Now we are going to continue the tour starting at the door used to come into the room and heading to the left. The first corner houses my sewing machine, peg board, and more!
That pegboard is a life saver and I highly recommend one for any craft room. As you can see, mine is well utilized for everything from ribbon to twine to washi tape and more! If you are interested in that great ribbon organizer, you can buy a similar one on Amazon (note it appears to be discontinued and this is one of the only places I could find one).
I had a few things that I decided to just hang directly onto the wall. I added empty frames around these items to make it look a little more neat and organized. I love how it turned out!
Yes my sewing machine is SUPER old. She is a workhorse and gets the job done however! We have had this desk for sometime but it really works in here for a sewing area. I covered the top of the desk with a product I found near the contact paper at Walmart. It is non-slip and really helps on this surface.
I actually changed out the knobs and pulls on this desk to give it a little makeover. I went with chalkboard labels on EVERYTHING in this entire room. I decided I just change too much for regular labels. You can click here to get the ones that I used.
I have two of these shelving units in this craft room to hold all of my craft supplies. This is hands down the best thing I did in this space. I was always using leftover furniture pieces from the rest of the house in my craft room. The problem is none of it WORKED for me. The best decision was ditching all of that and going with functional pieces that work in this room.
The cubes are all from Walmart. I used this 9-Cube Storage stacked with this 3-Cube Organizer. I used wicker baskets with chalkboard fronts throughout the entire room. You can also buy those dividers for the cube organizer. I used the quad divider and the X divider and alternated them down the center of each shelf.
I used the same fabrics throughout the room. From a cover for my chair cushion to that fun banner across the top of this side of the room.
The top of the cube shelves on this side of the room have a variety of these 12 x 12 paper organizers housing various supplies. I am also using two of these Galvanized Round Bins on either side.
The dividers on the shelves are mostly full but I do have some room to expand.
I love being able to see everything at one glance and have my craft supplies organized and ready to make something!
As we continue around the room, this is the next corner. I have my aprons hanging from a command hook on one side.
I also took some adhesive cork and re-did a cork board for this side of the room. Everything up here is memory from a fun event I have had the opportunity to attend.
I created these metallic “CREATE” letters for this space and am absolutely in love with the results! Click here to see how to make them for yourself! They hang over another set of cube organizers that are just like the ones above.
I have a wide variety of mason jars on top of this organizer. Y’all know I love my mason jar crafts! There are also a few organizers that are meant for fish tackle. They work perfectly for small objects like beads and more!
The paint and other supplies are organized in the same way as the other cubes.
I love that the paint is organized by type so I always know where to go to get the correct type for the project I am working on.
As you turn right from this corner, you can see the other side of my work table as well as the rest of this room. You can find that six piece world map here.
I used a day bed we already had to make a place to sit in this room. This can easily be turned into a guest bed for an over night guest. You can read more about the pillows and bedding here.
The wall above this side of the bed has a gallery full of great things. You can click here to see that watercolor state art or here to see that decoupaged monogram. The mirror was a candle holder from the thrift store that I painted and added in a mirror!
The night stand next to the bed is actually three vintage wood crates that I stacked together. I did not take a picture but under the bed I have additional storage boxes that house projects that need to be completed.
On the opposite side of the bed, I have a chest of drawers that contains various photo props.
Above that dresser, I painted a set of these hexagon shelves. I filled them with vintage finds and more!
The remainder of my vintage thread spool collection went into this old Coke crate. I love showing off those thread spools and it just seems to fit in a craft room!
The rest of the items on the dresser I actually made. I love the collection of my rainbow button art, DIY map canvas, hashtag Instagram frames, and washi tape Instagram frames.
I couldn’t stop there! I had to utilize every inch of this space. I used an over the door shoe organizer for the back of the door and added in more craft supplies.
I used chalkboard paper to create round labels and clothes pins to hold them on. Remember I change my mind too often so chalkboard is the main theme of this craft room!
The front of the door needed a little something as well so I made sure everyone felt welcome with this fun mason jar sign that was a Christmas gift.
That is it for my craft room but I wanted to let y’all have a peek into the closet that is in the adjoining room. I use it as well for craft supply organization.
I had a major clean out and over haul in this closet as well during this craft room makeover. Again I tried to do mainly chalkboard labels throughout.
The containers in here don’t match as well as in my craft room but y’all I can close these doors!
And if you thought I had a bunch of craft paint in my craft room, you have not seen anything yet!! That is one BIG craft room tour! The room is actually the smallest in our home but I was able to fit in BIG function with a plan and by purchasing pieces that work for me. Want to see a video tour? Watch below!

This looks great! Our craft rooms always seem to get the “leftover” furniture in the house… it is so nice when we take an opportunity to treat ourselves, and splurge on items that are perfect for our space! Can’t wait to see all the other rooms on the tour!
Wow, your craft room looks amazing! I’d be so inspired to create in your room!
I LOVE your space, Angie!! You definitely utilized it to the max. And I drooling over that work table!!!
Thanks for the tour! Your craft room looks like it is always inspiring to work in there. <3 It also looks like you have just about as much paint in your stash as I do!
Wow!! What a fabulous craft room, Angie! I love all the beautiful storage ideas- the great mix of baskets and unique vintage pieces. All the colour!! Such a fun space to be creative in! Thanks for organizing this awesome series!
WOW! It’s like your very own craft store- and so organized! I really love the 6 piece map, and your chair looks comfy. Thanks for the ideas!
I am so jealous. What an awesome room you have. I need an extra room to make into my craft room. Thanks for sharing that lovely, inspiring space.
I have complete and total craft room ENVY! So amazing and inspiring!
Love this craft room! I have to say, the baskets caught my attention — just LOVE baskets- but then the paint organizing is stellar! Brilliant idea.

I have selected this post to be my personal feature on this week’s Happiness Is Homemade Sunday Link Party. Congrats!
Sinea ♥
wow, you room looks lovely. I’m just in the final stages of finishing mine, and am going to enjoy looking through all the links here for inspiration 🙂
Angie,
You finally have a space you deserve. I love the sweet collections you have carefully displayed. Your space is absolutely beautiful just like you darling.
Happy Creating,
Karen Marie
I love your craft room. The x organizers for spray paint is brilliant.
Love your craft room. I am in the process of redoing mine. I too used to use a miss mash of storage in mine and got tired of it. So I recently switched to cube system. It’s easier for me to assemble or move when I need too. Since I have purchased the new system, I have tons of nice square & rectangular pieces of packing styrofoam left over. It is not recyclable so I just bagged it up and stacked into my basement. I would like to use it on a project for a display outside. I do a winter Wonderland theme outside during the holidays and would like to construct a castle, etc. I would like to construct in panels that could be stored easier once holidays over. I thought that maybe this styrofoam could be cut to look like ice blocks for the structure. But i am not sure how it would hold up outside. Have you ever made any projects like this? Also I am wondering what kind of adhesive would work outside in rain or snow? I thought about liquid nails or some kind of weather caulking, but not sure what would work with styrofoam. Any suggestions? I thought I would ask you as I seen you had some packing styrofoam in your closet that I assume you plan to use on a project some day. I am originally from Ohio, but live in London Ky now. No one around here who scrapbooks or crafts…so i enjoy looking into your craft world. Again love the room…especially like your button art project and wall map art….Mary in Ky
Thanks for commenting Mary! That packing foam is tough to cut as the cut edges shed EVERYWHERE! I personally hate to use it on projects. So be careful there. Also most glues will melt foam. Look for a glue that is specifically for foam on Amazon. You might read in the description if it says for use outdoors. Good luck!
Holy cow! What a great space for creating! You have so many supplies but they look like they are so easy to find. The organization amazes me!
Just living vicariously through all these beautiful craft rooms! Even if I had one it would never stay as neat as this one! lol!
Craft room envy! How awesome to have it all in one space. Lots of creativity comes from there, I’m sure. I really like the button print. Cute
Ok first of all wow amazing amazing craft room. You have so much stuff! That room is what dreams are made of 🙂 Fabulous and so organized! LOVE IT great job. So happy to visit your blog from the link up! I will now follow!
Such an amazing room! I love everything about it thank you for sharing! I love how your work space is so bright right next to the window, and those metallic letters are fantastic!
Love your craft room! So many good ideas!
Thanks for the tour! Could you please tell me how you attached your framed pegboard to the wall? I have one sitting in the garage that needs to be hung in my room where I can use it. Thanks!
I took two 2×4 boards and attached them to the wall horizontally into studs. Then I attached the pegboard to those strips. This way it will hang out slightly from the wall and allow you to add your hooks. Good luck!
