I'm still working on the crochet project that I can't share as it's a gift I don't want her to see until...well it's done. So I'm going to post some pictures of my crafting work space.


This is a closet in our dining room (or the room that I have claimed as my space), I think it's supposed to be a coat closet...but whatever. On the top shelf I have a tub of carpet samples and two tubs of fabric. 

Below, on hangers, I have clothes that need repairs (ripped seams, missing buttons, pant hems), my sewing machine, box of fabric samples, tub of yarns, woodcarving tub, and a tub of misc. things. 

Here are two cabinets that I bought at Loews (I think 80 dollars each) and this is where I store a lot of stuff. 
Each shelf has a different "area" of crafting. Painting, sewing, scrapbooking, tools, drawing, and sculpting all have shelves (some more than one). There's also a shelf where I have put "things" for "random" projects that don't necessarily fit in any other category (like a box of sea shells and empty baby food containers).
Here's my new desk, this is mostly for school work rather than crafting, but this is a good space when a project over flows from my crafting table or if I'm working with a friend or my mom. 
 Here is my crafting table, it's just an old card table...I don't care what happens to it so there's paint on it and holes in it and it just makes "cleanup" easier if I don't have to worry about wiping everything down. There's the current stage of the dollhouse (although I will add better pictures of that in a bit).
Here is a picture of a bookshelf that I have reserved for crafting books. I don't buy too many books because I can find a lot of instruction for things and project ideas online.

So that's the space I have to work with. I have a fair amount of supplies for a variety of upcoming ideas I wan to try out. The whole dining room is sectioned off by a baby gate so I can leave some things out if they are drying or whatnot.
