My Craft Room is evidence that good things comes to those that wait…
{ …I waited for 36 years 😉 }
The fact that I am sharing it with you { thousands of people I have never met }
is evidence that dreams come true.
So today I am sharing one of my dreams, my little “good thing”, my Craft Room…
Please allow me to give you a tour.
Follow me…
Keep coming… We are almost there.
One of my favorite things in this room is the window and the great source of natural light.
Here we are…
As I was saying I didn’t want to take away the light so I dressed up the window
with a super easy no sew window treatment.
These fabrics make me happy and light up the space even more.

From this corner you get to see more clearly what I call my design area.
I decided to add a pin board not just as a place to collect ideas but to create balance
and bring a bit of the opposite polka dot wall to this side of the room.
I love this Cork Board… So fun!
It is a perfect place to imagine and collect ideas for my feature projects.
{ You can see the full TUTORIAL for the Polka Dot Cork Board HERE }
In your way out you’ll find two other small walls.
{ Don’t leave though there is a lot more to see }
Here is the one with the small bookcase.
And here is the one with my favorite piece of furniture…
The Polka Dot Walls inspired the entire design behind my Craft Room.
I was able to make such perfect dots with the help of this fabulous stencil by

This dresser is my favorite piece for two main reasons.
One the shape is so darn cute and the colors make me happy…
Don’t you love the wall?
The second reason is because it has a lot of room for storage
which hopefully helps me accomplish my number one resolution for this new year:
To be ORGANIZED!
{ I was a mess until Wednesday 😉 }
ORGANIZATION
The Small Dresser
My main focus while working on this room was first to make it inviting and a kid friendly space.
{ I love when my kids help me make new things }
The second one was to have a place where I could be inspired to create and really get organized.
Most of my material are inside of the dresser.
Each of the drawers have specific materials inside: ribbons, stamps, embelishments…
Take a look !
The Sewing Area
You may remember this peg board that I made for my jewelry a couple of months ago.
{ You can find the tutorial HERE }
…Well I am going to have to make another one soon because now it is part of my Craft Room
and sewing area.
This is how it looks now…
In this same area I have this little stand holding my Washi Tapes.
Love the colors!
…and a wooden crate that holds all of my fabrics.
The Bookcases
I have a total of two bookcases in my Craft Room.
The tallest one is against my second Polka Dot Wall.
As you can see in the picture I used a bunch of plastic bins to hold my kid’s school and craft supplies.
One of my favorite things in this bookcase is the little display of glitter.
Are you noticing that most of the accesories in the room are storage?
The smaller bookcase is in the opposite corner of the room holds mamá’s craft supplies and tools. 😉
Also there is Lola { my Mod Podge Suitcase. Click HERE for the TUTORIAL }
Inside there are a bunch of keepsakes and journals.
My kids love to come visit and look through my little treasures.
Jars.
I used jars to store the rest of my craft supplies. Easy to grab and see inside.
The Accesories
I really didn’t have to do much thanks to the polka dot walls.
The rest of the “accesories” are pretty much “must have” items.
My Lamp
My Fancy Pencil Holder : A cup!
My Pin Cushion…
My Dry Erase Board: A mirror.
A clock…
My Calendar.
And a few other things that I like…
{ Click here to see the Wood Dice Tutorial }
..and I love.
So there you have it!
First I started with a wall…
and I finished with a room….
Now… Where did all my fabulous paint go?
Well… lucky me!
There is a closet in this room.
Ha! Stay tuned!
Dream BIG!

Could you please tell me the color name/brand of the blue in your craft room. I love that shade and there are so many out there. 😉
I adore your craft room! I have tried all summer to get mine half way right. I am about to give up. I even thought of my round/oval table that I want to get out of my kitchen, as a craft table! Would love to paint it white! Hubby would die! LOL. I love your polka dots, the white, the red, everything!!!
ooh – i love your creative space! the room i call my art studio is SO not organized! you’ve just inspired me to make it organized and beautiful… 🙂
Oh what a beautiful room, a pure inspiration source! I am sooo jealous!!!
Many lovely greetings from Marie
Thank you so much!
It is a beautiful room and I cannot think of anyone who deserves it more!
Maureen, how sweet of you to say such thing… Thank you so much for the visit…♥
I’d love to know where you find the little name plate brackets on your dresser on the drawers when you open the cabinet. I love them!
Amanda, I got them long time ago but I have seen them over at Craft Stores as embellishment for Scrapbooking. You may want to check your local Craft Stores.
oh my word – how gorgeous is this room. I am so jealous – it looks lovely. I think I would need a lot more imagnation and creativity before I deserve a room that looks like this and has all that wonderful crafty stuff in it!
Gorgeous – well done.
Absolutely lovely!
Dawn, thank you so much!
I know I’m just a few months late in stopping by, but I was just snooping around the internet looking at one of my passions — sewing/crafting rooms — just for the heck of it & found yours. I have a great room, but it’s always fun to tweak it, so I go on the hunt for inspiration. I’m sure you are enjoying your lovely room and creating all kinds of great things!

Holy Wow! What a gorgeous, fun and functional room. I loved every single picture and didn’t know where to rest my eyes. Simple Amazing.
In 20 years when my kids are out of the house, I will have a room like this 🙂
