The Perfect Craft Room

IMG_3276
At the moment we are building our first home… It is starting to look really good. Today they poured the cement in the garage and peeping through the windows I saw that the kitchen cupboards are now in place.

Which means I don’t have long to decide how to fill my craft room. (Yep I’m getting my own craft room!! No more sharing the dining table!!)

On Monday we drove down to Perth to drop Tony (my husband) off for work and went in to IKEA.

We weren’t the only ones….

The people piled in for over 20 minutes at this pace! Not sure where they all came from as there definitely weren’t that many waiting outside!

We walked through the shop admiring some items, not liking others as much… then I saw THE room!! For those that have never been to IKEA, they have a number of rooms set up so you can see how things work in rooms.

This room was around the same size as my soon to be craft room. And it had the PERFECT amount of storage without it looking too crowded.

Elisa and I sat at the desk for a while admiring everything…. unfortunately it was so busy I couldn’t take a photo of the room without including about 10 other people.

I contacted IKEA via facebook yesterday explaining how it was my perfect room and I need all the items… today they sent me a photo and will be sending me a list of everything tomorrow.

Very happy now 🙂 Although I think I will need to start saving….

What do you think of this room?

Would there be enough storage for you? I love how there is 2 desks opposite each other so I can sit there and do things with the kids too. 
I can see myself spending plenty of hours in here….
