5 Craft Room Must-Haves

This for everyone who loves to get lost in arts and crafts!

In today's busy world, we all need an escape to help us decompress for the day. We each have hobbies that allow us to escape the worries of the world, but one hobby that is gaining popularity is crafting. From crocheting and sewing to painting and making fun t-shirt designs, crafting and creating has become a loveable hobby.

And for some, what started as a hobby has become a fun side business. With more and more people taking a liking to crafts, they need a dedicated space to spread out all their materials and let their creative muscles take over. So before your art and craft materials take over your living room or kitchen, here are 5 must-have items to create a fun and inspiring craft room.

  1. Concealed Storage - Whether you have a corner in your home or a whole room dedicated to crafting, having concealed storage is essential because having a few storage bins is not enough. With beautiful cabinetry included in your craft room design, you'll be able to keep everything organized and hide any clutter or overflow that you may have. This also helps accent or complement your home's style and blend your craft room with the rest of your home. 

  2. Plenty of Work Space - Every artist needs space to design their craft. So whether it's a Cricut machine, sewing machine, yarn, or other materials, you need ample surface space to lay everything out to work efficiently and ergonomically.  

  3. Efficient Lighting - You need proper lighting to work efficiently in any workspace. Wherever your main workspace is, you'll want to install pendant lighting above your workspace to provide yourself with the best visibility for your crafts. In addition to pendant lights, you'll want to include a complimentary amount of recessed lighting and outlets to plug in lamps for ambient lighting.

4. Floating Shelves - For those tools and other materials that need to be easily accessible, it's always a great option to install floating shelves. You can still keep everything organized with decorative baskets, but this will help to have all your necessities within arms reach. 

5. Durable Flooring - These design tips are a must-have for a craft room, but this is the most important. It's crucial to have durable flooring that will be easy to clean up any spills while being scratch and stain resistant.
