Dream Craft Rooms 2

Lina Marie Liscano

I love a craft room that feels like an escape, first of all. A place where you leave other concerns at the door and treat yourself to a place that feeds all your senses, makes you smile, and starts your creative juices flowing.

This room does all that. I love the design of the room, the fact that it looks like you can open windows and sky lights and get fresh air flowing, or feel wonderful as you feel dry and safe when it’s raining, or snowing, or…

The plants let the outside in. I even love the shadows created by the sun on the floor!

This dream craft room is more workmanlike, but it seems like a good design to me. The drafting table is wonderful. The light is good. The table with storage right beside the drafting table would make it easy to draw, paint, or do do anything else you wanted to. I had a drafting table in my bedroom-turned-art-room in Arkansas, and I loved it for doing my woodburning, painting, etching designing, etc.

Another good design with the large table, especially for projects that require many stages. I like the windows in here, too.

This is another of my favorites because of all the plants and the beauty of the design. A greenhouse type escape area, where hours would pass while you dreamed of what you wanted to do, or began work. It’s not clear from this picture whether the lighting is good if it’s not daytime or it’s a cloudy or rainy day, but I could sure figure out solutions to that…

A more workmanlike design here. It doesn’t look like there are screens on the windows, which in Arkansas would need to be addressed because open windows without screens are an irresistible invitation to all the wasps and mosquitoes on the planet..

Dream Craft Room

My personal experience is that there is never enough space or storage or supplies in my art room to fully satisfy me. When I moved to Thailand in April, I was forced to sell all my stuff – kind of a heart breaker. A lot of the things went to a lady I met from down the road from us. We instantly bonded, so that made it much easier. My stuff was going somewhere it would be appreciated and used. She ended up not only buying some things, but adopting our beloved yellow lab, Amber, giving her a home any dog would dream of, with a house, yard, boy to play with, another dog as a companion, and two loving parents.

Now I have a teeny tiny art alcove where I’m trying to teach myself to draw and then painting the sketches. I have a child’s watercolor set, a sketchbook, some pastel chalk and some colored pencils. I love spending time there!

But since we’re going to DREAM…
