    im so very jealous :( i dont even have a table, I have to sit in a chair in the livingroom with everything precariously stacked beside me and then stuff it all in the cupboard when i'm finished.
    Wonder if I could convince hubby to give me his garage or build me a little extension out the back . . . . . :D


    Mine sounds better than it is lol. It's on the bottom floor of my house behind the garage and next to the utility room and has no windows . But at least it's my space even if it has so much stuff i can't get in properly.

    This is my desk, OH made me get it so he could shut it up and hide my mess away! I'd post a real picture but it's far too much of a state to photograph at the minute! I wanted the Expedit bookcase/desk set-up too but my space was just a bit too small!

    I do mine where I can, either standing up at the kitchen worktop or on the very small dining table we have, craft stuff is stuffed into any available space...oh and I also have an OH who keeps asking are you finished with this and wants to tidy me up :eek::rotfl: He doesn't understand that I NEEEEED to leave things out incase I want to use them again, the upside is, he is often away all week so I can be as [STRIKE]messy[/STRIKE] creative as I want, I just get up early on a Friday and rush round and tidy up :D

    I promised I wouldn't look at this thread because it would remind me of the days when I had a whole room downstairs of my own for crafting. Hubs even put kitchen worktop all round it.

    Then those babies arrived and I had to give it up. It took a while but once they got toys, it was the sad end. Now they have their own living room and I have moved into our bedroom which thankfully is huge. I bought a plastic banqueting table which was meant to slot under the bed and be used as an extra - it is still up at the end of our bed with all of my stuff on. Hubs put me some shelves up in the alcoves from bottom to top so I can get every thing in, it's not the same though. I can't really leave everything out.

    One of our friends looked horrified when I told him that my craft room was in the bedroom, 'Oh great' was his response in a very sarky way. Hubs doesn't mind though.:A
