Workspace of the Week: She’s crafty

This week’s Workspace of the Week is SpecialK08′s superb craft room:

I am so incredibly envious of this week’s workspace selection that I’m now plotting to have a craft room somewhere in my home. This space is functional and impeccably well organized. It’s not matchy-matchy, and I appreciate that. This truly looks like a space where everything has a home, SpecialK08 knows exactly where everything is located, and great amount of work is completed here. For being in the basement, this area also has some great lighting to keep it cheerful and useful. Be sure to check out the storage closet and the Ikea-hacked work table, too. Thank you, SpecialK08, for submitting your terrific space to our Flickr pool.

Want to have your own workspace featured in Workspace of the Week? Submit a picture to the Unclutterer flickr pool. Check it out because we have a nice little community brewing there. Also, don’t forget that workspaces aren’t just desks. If you’re a cook, it’s a kitchen; if you’re a carpenter, it’s your workbench.

    That’s an excellent small space. I assume there is, or soon will be, a full-length mirror since sewing is obviously a big part of the craft.

    I myself would have used a warmer paint color but this is quite harmonious. I’ll bet she loves it. :-)

    Very nice room, SpecialK08! I like the color – it’s peaceful looking.

    And thanks for showing a non-office space, Erin.

    I love this room! You’ve thought of everything, I love the stars on the wall. Way to use your space to create a place that beckons for you to come in.

    This is how I want my craft room to look – neat, with room to work! Instead, it has stuff piled on every flat surface. I am pecking away at it, and this gives me inspiration – and I have windows!

    I’m a quilter and really love how she’s organized her stash. Most impressive!

    That’s a great space! I like the stars. I’ve been looking for drawers like those ones in the back left corner. Anyone know what those are and where they’re from?

    Kristin, they might be Ikea, Vika Alex.

    I just love this room!

    That is beautiful! And looks very organized. It would definitely inspire some great crafting!

    Thanks for featuring my space, Erin! @Kristin: the white drawers are indeed Vika Alex from Ikea – a bit of a pain to put together because of all the drawers, but ideal for organizing.
