The flex room off our master had turned into a junk-all! Organizing, purging and lots of hard worked later, it is now my office and craft room. It is decidedly feminine with vintage pieces, shiplap walls and wood floors. Organization that works and beautiful touches give this
office farmhouse charm.

functional sewing space that is bright and efficient.
13. Garage Creative Studio

Petal and Ply |
Maybe you have absolutely nowhere in your home to carve out an office or craft space. Why not turn your
garage into a creative studio like this blogger did!! This gorgeous crafting space started life out as a garage...complete with bikes, outdoor toys, tools and other garage detritus!

If your home office is open to the rest of the house, consider a wall of closed storage, like Sarah did. She removed a wood feature wall to create a
wall of built-in storage and says it was the best decision ever.
18. Turn an Unused Dining Room into a Home Office
|
DIY beautify |
Our former home had a
tiny dining space that we turned into a functional craft room and home office. Because it was seen from multiple rooms, including the entry way, organization was key!

22. Basement Studio Makeover for $100
|
Postcard From the Ridge |
Angie's
basement home office started life as a dumping ground (so many of us can relate, right?) Her goal was to make it a light and bright space, filled with inspiration. She cleared the clutter and created a charming space filled with vintage organizing goodies. Now that everything has a place, it's a breeze to maintain!
23. Chic White and Gold Home Office
|
Savvy Apron |
Sherry's home office started life as an unused dining room filled with mismatched furniture. Uninspiring, it left much to be desired. She
repainted or recovered most of the existing furniture to update it, and give it a bright and fresh new look. She added gold stripes to the wall with tape for a chic, modern update.
Whew, that was a lot of home office makeovers!! If you made it to the end, congratulations! I'm thinking you were really needing inspiration and motivation to get started on your own office or craft space redo!
Go ahead and PIN this collage, SHARE it with friends (or yourself) so you'll have it at hand when you're ready to begin your office update!
I'd love to know which room was your favorite or one you found most inspiring? These makeovers are proof that you CAN create a home office or craft space even if you don't have a spare bedroom!! And you can absolutely have your own space on a budget! Think outside the box...do you have a basement space? a garage? or even a small space under the stairs that could become the office of your dreams?
