  • This week, I made over my messy home office/craft room. I am getting ready for Autumn and being at home more. I wanted to give my home office a makeover and use the space better. I added more Ikea Kallax Storage and I also hacked the Ikea Alex unit in last week's video, I will link to it below.
    I painted the walls using Colourtrend wall paint in the shade "Aged Vellum".
    My craft room desk is a hack which I will link to below too.

    I love how the wall paper blends in better with the vellum paint. So, beautiful! You have a nice flow too! The best part is the view outdoors! Makes it more inspiring to be creative! Take care, Catherine! Thanks for inspiring! Hugs~ Josie 🤗😊

    Oh, maybe a "she shed" in the garden for wood working?

    I discovered your channel a few weeks ago. I love it. My Mom is hooked too. I love this makeover. I work full time at home. I have a handmade e-commerce business. It has taken me years to start making enough money to live on and feel so blessed I am finally there. I have a space in the garage to do my "dirty" work like painting etc, but most of my work involves sewing. I sew in my dining room and it has been looking less and less like a dining room with the addition of my heat press and office equipment. Last week I decided to go all out and retire the room as my dining room and turn it into my office/creative space to work. I am so excited to get it finished!!! Thanks for this video. PS. I LOVED your travel video to Bruges. I was so excited watching it. I love to travel and have been to Bruges twice. I am so in love with that city and cannot wait to be able to travel abroad again.

    Your office space/craft looks stunning and peaceful. I have a garden flatlet which over looks the swimming pool, my son suggested that I change it into my sewing room. I already have a sewing room but because of Chilli-Pip, my cat, and my husband (all his charity work files and computers) I can never sew in peace. So this weekend it's the start of my "creating my own haven". Thanks for all the tips and ideas.😊

    LOVE!!! I love my Kallax/Alex in my studio. I have a Hemnes dresser and they are amazing. I would check weight, mine got bowed in a storage unit when moving, movers piled my boxes of scrapbooks on top of it and the weight was a bit much! SO HAPPY you kept that GORGEOUS wallpaper!! Cheeky thumbs up! A beautiful day here in Michigan!

    Love that green and it goes so well with the paper, which is super pretty. It's lovely that your office looks out onto the garden too. There's nothing better than looking at nature when creating. It's very inspiring. I love the idea of that hack, you're thinking of doing. Us crafters can never have enough storage, that's for sure. I'm trying to sort my things out too. I bought myself a labelling gun. Even doing that is helping me to sort everything out from putting dry foods in jars to my cubes of crafting supplies. You've done a great job with your office and it's very inspiring as always. Much love and thanks for sharing your very inspiring videos x

    making yourself a priority, you
    definitely should be!!👏👏👏

    I think the wall paper ties in with the paint colour, it looks great. I don't work from home but I'm currently re-vamping my spare room that I use as my dressing room. It keeps becoming a dumping ground so I need to get it organised again because it is actually my favourite and most used room xxx

    • @DaintyDiaries
      @DaintyDiaries  4 роки тому +1

    Gorgeous space, as always! Thanks for the idea of using the Hemnes for fabric storage - maybe it would work in my little workroom space too. I’m currently using oversized plastic bins stacked in tall, poorly designed, built-in shelves, but it’s annoying to be constantly pulling them out from under each other to get into them. Cheers, J.

I store my fabric in my Kalax unit, no doors on it, just the fabrics folded around foam board and standing up so I can see it, if I store it out of sight I forget what I’ve got. Looking forward to seeing if you get that Hemnes and do the hack. x
