Fredda Perkins' Craft Cottage
Last spring, I introduced you to Jennifer Perkins' uber-crafty mom, Fredda, in our Mother's Day special series. Jennifer is spending some time at her mom's this week, and shared pictures of Fredda's delightful (and envy-worthy) craft cottage. I can only imagine what fun it is to create in such an inspirational space! Read more about the cottage and see more pictures over on Jen's blog.

Craft Room on a Cart
When crafts were just a hobby, I often found myself in the midst of complete chaos. Wool and fabric and glitter and glue sticks were strewn everywhere. And I liked it that way! I have always found a tremendous amount of inspiration in the crazy mess of supplies. But now crafting is my career and I have deadlines to meet. I can no longer afford to spend an hour looking for my scissors.
I used to live in a two-bedroom house; one bedroom was for sleeping, and the other was for crafting. I had an entire room just for my projects, and it was a luxury that I totally abused. Everything was everywhere. When I was working on my book, Feltique, there was wool roving in piles on the floor, sweaters in scraps, and the scissors were buried beneath it all.
A year ago, I moved into a new place. The whole house is just 730 square feet. There's hardly room for my bed in the single bedroom, let alone a dedicated space just for crafting. I worried that if I had to keep everything put away, my creativity would suffer. Instead, being forced into organization against my will was the best thing that ever happened.

Colored Pencil Spool Holder
Kristy of Kootoyoo created this lovely spool holder using colored pencils. I think it's fantastic, and the fact that it casts beautiful shadows makes it even more fun!

Moonstitches' Craft Room
Take a beautiful trip to Japan and get a glimpse of Moonstitches' craft room in this inspirational post filled with lots of great pictures. My favorite has to be the old drawers Alex found on the street to hold her crafting tools and notions.
