My craft room makeover is finally done… I know! It is about time don’t you think? It has taken me around four months to finish it! I loved my old craft room so much but the space was getting too small so Matt transformed our covered patio into my new home office. Today I am sharing a little part of the craft room, let me show you one of my four workstations.
Isn’t it fun?
I love the bright happy colors and how easy it is to find all of the basic things I need to create a project and a photo shoot.
I have to say that from all of the DIY projects that I have created over the years my DIY Peg Board is my very favorite.
I love how many things this simple board can hold and how organized but handy everything is.
Besides, I adore the color… it makes me happy!
I originally made this board to hold my jewelry but with the new closet makeover I didn’t need it anymore.
This wall was the perfect space for it. You can find the step by step tutorial here.
Peg board accessories can get a bit expensive so be creative and use other items that you may have hanging around.
Metal baskets work perfect to store small items that you may have.
I also love these light weight yellow plastic baskets that I found at my local Dollar Store.
So happy and bright!
I love using metal cans to hold brushes, scissors and many other craft supplies.

with spray paint and how to make it a floating can.
OK, back to the workstation!
The second item that makes this space so easy to work with is my new cart.
I found this cutie at Ikea and I love that it is super sturdy and that it has wheels.
I use it to hold my picture props. I love that I can move it to whatever area I am going to be shooting at
with the comfort of having what I need right there.
Before you go I want to invite you to click here and see my diy pin board and the many DIY Accessories that I also made for my craft room using a tablecloth… It’s crazy what a bit of an awesome piece of fabric and some imagination can do for you!

I have a room in our house that is the office/craft/catch all room. I have been dreaming of one of those Ikea carts ever since I got the catalog! Thanks for the great tips and inspiration! Hopefully I will get an afternoon to my self sometime soon and be able to have a room I can share with others!
LOVE everything about this! I’ve been wanting an excuse to buy that adorable cart and that’s a genius use of the peg board.
It’s so awesome!! I love the colors and the way you arranged it too! I have a pegboard system and I love it. It’s so easy to change around!

Thank you friend! …Have an AMAZING week!
This is beautiful! I love how fresh and bright it is. One day when I have a craft room…..
I used a closet for a long time and it worked… I still can’t believe I have a craft room of my own.
How awesome is that. I love all the bright colors and using the peg board is genius ~ Lisa
Thank you Lisa!
I have loved each and every craft room office you’ve done, and I can’t wait to see the finished results of this makeover! I bet its amazing!
Rebecca, this is my favorite so far… I love this space. I can’t wait to show!
It looks wonderful! I have wanted that turquoise IKEA cart for ages, and now even more ;D
That is so awesome – that is something we have talked about doing many times. I love seeing all the different ways you have decorated your space. My hubs picked me up a rolling cart for my studio space- I don’t know how I ever lived without it. 🙂
Oh how I wish I was as organized as you are!! Great space Desiree!!
Wow! What a guy to turn the patio into your office!!! And I love this work station. Functional and colorful. So fun!
