Busy, busy all week. Including my knitting, running around on post, and getting lost in Regensburg. But mostly getting my new yarn room together. I have what was my office here in the apartment, but with the addition of a desk it is so much more than that now. My old desk was this tiny little thing that was even missing a wheel on the bottom. I decided I wanted to replace it and headed off to Ikea! Oddly enough, the one I wanted and the one that would work best is the exact same thing my dear friend Heather of A Tangled Yarn has in her Yarn Room. But it is pretty much perfect. I put it all together the day I came home (hence the absence of a WIP Wednesday post). I no longer have yarn tucked away in boxes here and there. With them spread all over I have to go digging to really search my stash and it’s easy not to see how much I have. Now it is all tucked in the cubbies yarn shop style. The whole thing just looks so darn cute, I can’t stand it! So I may only have one Finished Object to share this Friday, but it’s quite a big one!


It looks great, you can just reach out and have a squish whenever you feel like it
Very nice! I know having my sewing/knitting room has made me feel a lot more creative, I have all of my yarn in a dresser in the fabric closet though. You MIGHT consider keeping the yarn in 2 gallon zip bags if there are wool moths there. I found one a few months ago and had to freeze some of my yarn for a while, then bag it all up.
Did you stencil the flowers on the wall yourself? It’s a very nice area….sometimes I wish we had an IKEA!
I love it! That’s pretty much how I picture my future craft room looking….
What a perfect corner.
I am so jealous. This looks amazing and so organized. I wish I had such a swanky space for my design work.
This is just lovely. You have arranged it all beautifully. Enjoy!
That looks great! Love it! Am rather jealous, too.
Oh I wish I had a dedicated space for my crafts. This looks so inviting and fabulously chic!
I keep seeing so many yarn lovers using the cubbies to stash and really like it. I love the flowers on the background.
What a great desk! I want it
I love it!!! Great job with the arrangement. It must be great to stare at all that yarn.
That is a beautiful knitting nook! I am totally jealous!
Great space! Don’t you just love ikea? I could get in major trouble there.
i so love how your set up looks:) we are headed out to ikea for another cubby…i need help!!!
i really love the flower (both real and fake:))
Oh yay! It’s beautiful.
More inspiration for my own room, too. Sadly, the closest Ikea store is in Atlanta…nearly 100 miles away. Might be worth the drive if I can convince spouse of the necessity.
