The Basement Craft Room: Under $300

Finally!  I have finally finished {well, almost finished} my Basement Craft/Sewing Room!  Remember when I had a really cute sewing room upstairs in the 4th bedroom?  {click to see pictures}   Unfortunately, that room never ever worked out because I work late at night and it was directly near the kids’ rooms…. and well, you know how that goes.  So, I stuck my tail between my legs and tried to come up with a better solution.

EDITED TO ADD:  I recently blogged about all the details HERE

The basement.  The ugly, scary, unfinished basement with gray concrete walls, concrete floors, exposed beams on the ceiling, and almost no natural light was my only option.  {click here to see BEFORE pictures}  Ugh.  Sure, we eventually plan to finish the basement, but certainly not right now.  With virtually NO money in the budget to spend on fixing the basement up, I really had to use what we already had and definitely use my imagination.

So, for under $300, I now have a craft room/sewing studio that I actually {somewhat} enjoy being in!  I will be back another day to explain where I got everything and how I put everything together!  In the meantime, I am going to just relax in my new room!
