It’s so nice to have a space of my very own now. Since Alex is off to College and Jack is barely ever home anymore the upstairs FROG room was not being used any longer for the boys hang out space. This Momma wasted no time, and I took over the space. Yahoo!
Just a few new things. The light was marked down on clearance at Lowe’s for $50.00. I had the old desk I painted years ago and thought this is just fine to craft on and not worry about getting paint or glue everywhere.
I have all my go to supplies ready to go in a basket. I do have the tufted day bed, that actually has a pull out on the bottom as well. I figured if down the road I have a house full, we will have the sleeping accommodations for them. It’s pretty comfortable as well. That is an actual twin mattress on top. I like that it looks like a couch, and it has the comfort to go with. The price was reasonable. I will leave the information at the end of the post.
My stencils, material and other misc. supplies in the old toy box I painted a year or so ago.
Then just a few pieces here and there to make the space a little cheery. You may also notice the industrial curtain rod. I did that in place of the adhesive towel rings I had previously. I figured if I was going to utilize the space I may as well do the curtain the right way. Don’t get me wrong the towel hooks were a great alternative. After my husband made our industrial bakers rack we had a few pieces left over and I thought down the line I would try this. It was super easy.
I really don’t have a tutorial. As you can see these are the supplies I purchased from Lowe’s. I bought the two smallest galvanized pipes and then used the extenders to make them a tad longer. I believe the originals were 12 inches and I needed the rod longer. The elbows simply get screwed in the pipe. I used S hooks to hold the rods. They were thin enough that only the S hook would do. I have no other holes in the walls except for the S hooks. The elbows simply butt up against the wall.
So that about sums up the room. The other side has a closet. You may recall the gel stained project HERE
I enjoy this little space. It’s nothing fancy, elaborate or even that organized truthfully. It’s where I like to escape, craft, and do my Facebook videos with you.
I have been busy creating signs lately. The cow is dry brushed with white chalky paint, the Home sweet Home is stained, and the gather here is painted with Rit dye.
I certainly have more to come.
My new stencil is in production, and my new apron just arrived today. I shipped that out to Amazon this afternoon. It will be a super gift idea for that special gal. Under $20.00 which you can’t beat that for a homespun good ole’ fashioned one-of-a-kind apron:) We are pretty smitten with it ourselves. I told you my husband is the one that came up with the saying “I work by the flour”
I think I am ready to kick back and relax a while now.
Thank you so much for visiting with me today.

What a perfect craft room or just to hang out! I love that sleigh bed!
Love it Debbie!! Great job!!
Gorgeous Debbie!! Believe it or not , I wish my craft room was that simple . I sometimes think I’m so overloaded with stash, It looks like I am a borderline hoarder . I do have it pretty well organized but I don’t use half of it. I keep thinking of potential future projects. Your beautiful room has inspired me to rethink my realistic needs. I love the pipe curtain rod, I did this very similar in wood a few years ago for my dining room. 12 inch dowel rods and finials on the end. Thank you for sharing .
Love the colors and the fabric on the drapes! Keep up the great work!
I love it all Debbie! You are so lucky to have a special room like that. I especially love those two gel stained doors. Have a great day!
Simply lovely, you do have the touch displaying it all. Such a gift.
Such a gorgeous space ♥
Wonderful!!! Waiting to see more of your cute crafts!!
Blessings & have FUN!!❤️?
What a fun, beautiful space that you deserve! I know you’re excited to have such an awesome space to craft … I look forward to seeing all of your fun, amazing projects that are created there!
How very beautiful! That room is gorgeous! I just love every detail, especially those rods! Thanks for sharing!
Love your ideas. I too have a craft room and it is my sanity break to go to. Love making my home cozy.
Your room is so cheery, yet restful at the same time…a perfect place for your special place. The aprons turned out beautifully!
I want a real craft room but right now i use an area at that end of my dining room. You have a great place to work, thanks for sharing.
That’s where I have been for years Marlene:) Finally have my own space.
It’s perfect Debbie! It’s really pretty with the soft colors you chose. The chandelier is awesome!
Your craft room is so charming and so neat! Please come help me organize mine 🙂
Big Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
I love your craft room, Debbie. It’s the perfect space for you! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Make sure you have a patent on the work by the flour……..That’s too cute to have it stolen from you. Your hubby had an excellent idea!
Wish I could send pictures of my craft room. You put a lot of us to shame. Can’t begin to tell you how messy my space is where I work.
As always, enjoy seeing what you share with us.
I’m so envious of your new craft room! Not in a mean way: I’m glad you have it but I want one, too! Every room in my house is occupied with no room to spare. I am hoping to re-organize my office though and perhaps can take a corner of it for artwork.
The new apron is so charming! I could use several for gifts. Good work girl! And husband!
Debbie,
Your craft room is beautiful! The colors in the room is very peaceful and I adore the window.
That is such a cozy inviting space! I would be in there all the time! 🙂
That is one beautiful day bed and I love the extra pull out mattress. Your curtain rods are great and just what I may need to do once I get to the point of hanging curtains in my guest/t.v. room for adult son who still lives at home. How wonderful that you now have a crafting space…exactly my dream someday for the previously mentioned room.
I’m getting HOOKED on stencils… I do need to have MORE patience. LoL
I don’t know how to post a pic here so I will send an e-mail with the pic.
I am having FUN with the GATHER here stencil.

Great Linda! Please do send me a picture. Thanks so much.
Absolutely lovely! So inviting and a place where anyone would love to create. Thanks so much for sharing.
Craft rooms make me giddy! I just have a desk area, but I would love the idea of a craft room. I love how beautiful yours is Debbie!
Cute! Love the sunflowers and pops of yellow! Hope you are well, Debbie! 🙂
Hi Debbie! Your long awaited for craft room is lovely! So calming & serene, adore the soothing color scheme! I would like to know where u found (or made?) the carved wood wall hanging? I love the bohemian look & feel it has & have just the spot to put one! ~ The apron saying is too cute, your hubby gets kudos for originality! I am going to order one for my BFF for Christmas! ~~ I love your uniqueness!
Thanks Becky! I found that sign at Pier 1 years ago. It was marked down to $30.00 and I grabbed it.
This is beautiful, I would love a craft room.
