I haven’t actually used it so I don’t know if all my planning translated into optimum functionality for my crafting needs, but I’d like to imagine that it did!

OMG. I WANT that room! I have a scrapping room, too, and I wanted built-ins but hubby argued that for resale value, since we only had 2 bedrooms, one couldn't be permanently not a spare room, so I have only pieces of furniture, not the cohesive look I dreamed of…Now YOUR room??? THAT is EXACTLY what I wanted…

{ s o l d ! }
Dianne says
WOW!!!!!!! lust is pouring thru my vains..I want that room!!!
Katy says
That is heartbreaking. A place for a sewing machine AND a serger!? lol, I can't believe you had the energy to build cabinetry for every single room in your house, if anyone needs a show on HGTV it's you!I did finally buy my first nail gun and pancake compressor, and now I'm just trying to find some time to use it. Darn all these kids! 😉
The Watkins says
I loved the tour, but I would buy your house just to have that room!!! Thank you for sharing and inspiring all at the same time. Good luck to you in your new adventures. I can't wait to see what ugly duckling you get your hands on next.
Terri says
I'm moving in 🙂 What a well thought out room for everything you may need. I love it!!
Paula says
That is SO sad! Such a gorgeous room, and you won't get the advantage of it. Put your house ad in the local quilting guild newsletter, and it will be sold in a heartbeat!
ChRiS says
would break my heart to leave this home
Milk & Cookie Party says
I'm having some serious, serious envy here. Now I love the rest of your house. So comfy and inviting. But this room is amazing. I love that it is connected to the kids space but is YOUR space. All the choices, all the storage, all the counter spaces, and all the seating options. Wow!!!!! And I love the cream cablinets with the wood floor. Looks so clean and meticulous- two other things that speak to my heart. Great job! So excited to see the new house when you get it and see what it becomes.
Hillcrest Acres says
Fabulous!!! I love this room.
Colleen says
Love this!! I would have so much fun there.
Kileen says
Yours is the best house ever! That craft room is amazing!
Jenny says
So do you have multiple offers on your house or WHAT? Seriously, this room would be the deal-maker for me! I absolutely love it! Although I was a bit bummed for you when you said you hadn't used it – all of that work for someone else to enjoy just doesn't seem fair. Well. done!
Kristi says
Oh Sandra, the more we talk, the more I read your blog & the more we Skype…I just love you, you have FANTASTIC taste & I want you to rub off on me ok?? Sounds good. 😉 Hopefully I can get my project done for tomorrow!!!-Kristi@ Creative Kristi
My House of L says
Wow!! I'm drooling over that craft room…great job!
Erin says
Such an awesome room…such a shame it wasn't put to good use. That room would convince me to buy your house.erinscreative.blogspot.com
By Word of Mouth Musings says
Ok, now we all want to move into it!Off to check out the rest of your house,and drool …
Rosalie says
Okay, so I raved about the playroom. Um, yeah, the craft room takes the cake. Seriously wanting that in my house.!
Laura says
I need to bow down to your creativity and skills, knowing that you DIY all of that. Gorgeous and AMAZING!
Heidi says
Thanks for sharing the journey! It's got to be so hard leaving it all. But I'm sure I'm not the only one anxious to see what you will do to your new house in Tennessee!
Jenni says
Hey Sandra–I was thrilled when I saw your picture on Layla's blog and recognized you! I have been devouring your blog ever since. And I have been patiently waiting for this room on your house tour. I LOVE it, and find it sad that you don't get to use it after all that work! You are giving me lots of ideas. I can't wait to see what you do with the next house. -Jenni
The Mulberry Girl says
If this house isn't sold yet I don't know what's wrong with people….you've done such an amazing job turning this place around. I am dying to know how your place in Tennessee is going to turn out. You are one talented lady!!
Amanda says
I'm in love. Completely in awe that you built all that – will you teach me? Just built my first Ana White project and now have the building bug! I totally agree with someone above; let's put you on TV!
My Cottage Charm says
Oh girl…I swear to you that I got a little teary eyed thinking of all the love and attention you put into all your projects and now you have to leave them. If I were moving to your town, I would SO buy your house! Then again, I like to build with wood and you've already done everything! You seriously should take a day and just craft till your hands hurt..you know, just to break it in!(((hugs))) to you!missy
Jaime says
Sandra wait – this isn't the last room, I need to see your garage, perhaps the most important room of all because that's where the magic happens! Pretty please show us your workshop, mine is currently all over the basement floor so I'm dying to see how you're set up. PS – I'm ready with my posts for tomorrow, can't wait to see all the other builds.
Greg says
The universe started with a bang and your house tour ended with one!You have made such a beautiful, perfect home! -Much of which in such a short time!Wow! Just . . . Wow!
Ellie Ellis says
I would LOVE a space of my own like that! Looks amazing!
Pudel-design says
That is the best room of your home;)Love your whole house!Looks so amazing!Lovely greetings…http://pudel-design.blogspot.com/
Andrea says
I often think myself to sleep with visions of craft room designs dancing in my head.Yours is absolute perfection. Although, mine would be some funky color I'm sure (because I have a hard enough time keeping sane colors in my LIVING room…). And it would have a locking door, so I wouldn't have to worry about my kids messing it up.
Chantelle - ThousandSquareFeet says
Would it be okay with you if I copied this room – right down to the color of the paint on the island and the color of the pendant lights? 🙂 I agree with Andrea, though, it must have a locking door. Too many little hands in this house! Just B U T Full! And I am sorry not to have anything to post for tomorrow – it is still too cold here to kick the vehicles out of the garage and reclaim my "workshop" (half the garage) but soon! Oh, Spring, I can almost smell you and you smell like sawdust!!
SaraJaneForever says
Ugh, that room is amazing! Sure beats my one wall-three piece furniture-shared with my bedroom space!! I looove the island, the colour is so pretty.
andsewon says
Come do my wee small home!!!!Tennessee is not that far from me here in Virginia!;-)Love this room and your kitchen!You do such awesome work! Hope you find another wonderful diamond in the rough with this move.Lola
jenmyall says
What an amazing space!!! Thank you so much for sharing the link to the paint color! For some reason I just saw you wrote this morning 🙂 We ended up doing our Chicago trip, Watercolor and Disney before my husband left. I would love to know what your favorite hotel in Chicago is! Sorry for posting this all on here but I didn't know what else to do.
{northern cottage} says
wow…this is stunning! I'm SOOO jealous. Can't wait to see what kinds of creations you crank out of this room!www.northerncottage.blogspot.com
Brad Fallon says
Beautiful room!
It's a Wannabe Decorator's Life says
I featured your incrediable craft room on my blog today! You are just awesome!
Kathryn-nannygoat says
Your house is amazing! I am currently working on my craft room and yours is one of my inspirations. I posted about it here !!!
Kara Pothier says
I love those countertops – What kind and color are they?
Dixie Sargent Redmond says
Wow. That is wonderful. I would love it!
Jamie says
It looks amazing.
Lisa @ Simplified Saving says
I love, love, love this room! Will you please come to my house?
Our Family Eats says
I'm amazed. Stunned. It looks like a photo shoot from a magazine. You must squeal with delight every time you walk you in there!
Leigh says
HOLY COW!!! I love, love, love that room! Wow. Seriously amazed! Great job! 🙂
Heather says
I would LOVE a craft room like that!! All that storage space is just what I need!
Cozy Home Scenes says
That is one great craft room. And I would still be envious if I still had my craft room. Gave mine up when we needed other functions in the house more. Looks like you have so much space to move around and also to store things. I'm sure it will be functional when you get everything settled.
Krista @ While He Was Napping says
Oh my goodness… Green with envy doesn't even begin to describe it! The kitchen table and little nook in my bedroom are absolutely nothing compared to this beauty. It's incredible!
Robin says
I am so excited for you! How creative and organized and inspiring is that room!?Enjoy it …love love love your style :)xoRobin All Things Heart and Home
Backwoods Cottage Pam says
Lovely. A crafty gals dream room. It inspires me to clean up my act in my studio! It needs some serious help. If you get the chance, take a peek and you will see what I mean. 🙂 Pamhttp://backwoodscottage.blogspot.com/2011/02/get-inside-scoop.html
Linda @ Linda's Lunacy says
Wow! We have a craft room, but it's for 6 people, and all our various hobbies. So it looks nothing like yours. I love yours! Maybe I'll have a room like it when the kids move out. :)Linda @ Linda's Lunacyhttp://www.lindaslunacy.blogspot.com
Brook says
Amazing!! That is like a dream craft room! Love!
Pinkie says
Don't need the rest of the house. I could just live in that room.
Amy says
Oh.My.JEALOUSNESSThat room is UNREAL! That is my DREAM craft room. Whoever you sell that house to is so LUCKY!
Sheena says
Seriously? I think I need to move in with you! Love that room…one day a girl can dream right?
Candy (Mama Lion) says
its just… perfect. dude. kudos to YOU.
Nicole Kimble says
OMG!!!!! I want to be alone in this room with a glue gun !!!!!!! It is my every wish come true…I guess I did not specify where I wanted the wish to go…ha ha ha.I will have to go to confession for sure because I sure am “coveting” big time!
Pam says
I absolutely love this room! Can you tell me the dimensions of the room? I want to re-do my sewing room with a center island but I am afraid I don’t have enough room. I can’t believe the buyers didn’t want the island!!
I enjoy your blog!!
Rachel says
Wow, this is so inspiring and empowering! If you can do this, then there are many of us who no longer have any excuses! Thanks for laying the foundation and sharing your genius.
xoxo, Rachel

Thank you for your comment! I am so happy to hear some feedback. Sometimes, I don’t add ketchup at all. Then, it gives me a new taste which is also good.. as sweet and sour could also come from Tomatoes itself.
Laura@Ms Smartie Pants says
I guess I missed this when you originally posted it. You amaze me, you build, design, paint, sew, serge, scrapbook… what don’t you do? Do you cook? I need a friend like you, in my head I think I can take on all these big projects but afraid to try them.
Kym says
What part of Tennessee are you moving too? I can’t wait to see what you do to the next house.
Sean says
Love your craft room. My wife and I just decided to swap our living room into a fmaily room and make the family room into a craft/play room. Did you design/modify/ or buy your island? Love the flat drawers. We need to build something similar for beading and jewelry supplies.
Mary says
I love your site, you’re inspiring. ;O)
Amber says
What are the dimensions of this room? I’m trying to get an idea of scale to see if an island will fit in my craft room. Did you leave the standard 4 foot space between the island and the exterior cabinets? GORGEOUS room – great use of space!
Linda Crandall says
I just love your blog. I started blogging myself about 6 months ago, it’s a slow build, but I love it. Your site has encouraged me when I need it, and has helped me to learn to slow down with my larger projects and take my time. Because I blog, I always felt I needed to rush everything in a week or two and get it right onto the blog. Watching your progress has helped me find that balance. I have to say I enjoy building more than anything, as I can see you do to. I appreciate all you share and post each day.

Jessica says
Hi! I love your home!! it is beautiful! I am fairly new to woodworking and was wondering if you had the plans for the upper cabinets/shelves and the desk that is featured on you last photo on this page.
I think they are divine!! I am looking to build my office desk and this photo gave me great inspiration!
Any help would be appreciated!!
thanks
Saludos!! (from Mexico!)
