Pics wanted: Anyone have a combo craft room/laundry room? (x-post
Comments (7)I'm not sure I'll be much help, since ours isn't quite finished and fully operational yet. It sounds like what we're doing, but I don't have the washer and dryer for that room yet (our main laundry is upstairs), and we're just putting the craft/sewing area together. I can show you renderings of what it will look like finished. It's such a mess right now. We only have the counters and lower cabinets in place, but we sewed on them for Christmas projects and it seemed to work really well. (each corner serves as a sewing station...one for me with sewing-embroidery machine and serger, and one for the kids' machine) I only seem to have a floorplan already on photobucket and I'm at the wrong computer to add others, so I will have to do that later. In the meanwhile, here's the floorplan of the room. The kitchen is off to the right. The door on the left goes outside onto our side porch....See MoreShow me your craft room/craft area
Comments (7)I have a sewing/craft room set up, which I use almost every day. I can't find my camera cable right now, so I can't upload a photo, but I had a thought about your space. You really need a sewing machine space AND a table space because half of sewing is laying out the pattern, cutting, etc. I'm pretty sure I'm at my sewing table at least as much as I am at my machine itself. So, what might work really well for you is to get an old armoire from your local CL, and create something like the attached for the machine itself. Then you could position the table about a foot and a half out from the wall so that the person using it would stand between the wall and table, and could view tv. You could use the space under the table for wheeled carts which could hold storage supplies. Honestly the best storage I have in my craft room is the 8 foot long pegboard I put up. Everything hangs there: scissors, rotary cutters, rotary rulers, tape measures, etc. I can clean up in under two minutes, which helps me keep the area neat. The third element that is critical to the space is an ironing board. You could easily accomodate that by putting a fold-down board on the wall. They even have attractive cabinets for them now. Here is a link that might be useful: Sewing Cabinet from Armoire...See MoreGUEST ROOM / CRAFT ROOM

Comments (4)We knew this is what we wanted to use it for, but now its decorating time. We want to keep it flexible for other owners in the future. The "dry bar" is designed for wine in the future (center has plug & dimensions for wine fridge). The closet to the right is under the stairs & will be future wine cellar. For entertaining, it is possible, but mostly for "just us" - family of 2 with some fur babies. I wanted to open the stair well, but hubby said "absolutely not"... we did all the construction work!...See MoreIdaClaire
