Basement Craft Room

Hello Everyone!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! It is hard to believe it is over and if know me you know that I love the whole holiday season but after Christmas when I take down the tree I always feel refreshed for some reason. I mean it is not like the tree has been there for six months and has become an eyesore but is amazing how much bigger the room feels when it is gone, even though I do love me some pretty Christmas decorations!

Now that the new year is only days away I have started to think about what I would like to get done this coming year or at least hope to! Right now I have my craft supplies, sewing machine, Silhouette SD machine and more piled on my desk in our office and well I wish it could stay organized but it doesn't and when you walk through the hallway in our home it is the first room you see. I am not afraid to show you this room and what it looks like right now after a busy season of wrapping a million presents.....okay I am!

Any-who, I am planning on taking over part of our unfinished basement and making it my craft room. Right now our basement is primarily for storage and laundry but I hope to have a corner of it looking like one of these pretty rooms:

Okay so I am hoping Mr. Inspired doesn't read this and think whhaaa?! which I am sure will be the response due to the pure loveliness (and price) of these gorgeous rooms. So I am just dreaming about these craft rooms right and I will only take ideas from these rooms. 

A while back I read about how Sarah from Thrifty Decor Chick transformed a space in her unfinished basement into a lovely crafting space. 

Our basements are similar in their unfinishedness (I know it's not a word) including the wood beams & lovely PVC pipe along the wall!

I love this piece from Pottery Barn but I know I can make it myself because my Mother put together something similar 10 years ago with two short bookcases and a large piece of plywood.

Love this room! Too bad we don't have any large windows in our basement but Mr. Inspired is an electrician so I am sure he can figure something out for lots of light!

Thanks for stopping by!
