When looking for storage space, I always overlook walls. But, utilizing wall space is like uncovering a treasure trove of hidden storage in full view.

To make the most of your wall space, mount wall-to-wall shelving to hold files, bins, baskets, and containers. Install hooks, clips, and pegboards to hang smaller items. Use any leftover small wall areas to display your artwork!

5. Storage Shelf for Yarn and Crochet Supplies

Use this unique shelf idea to display your favorite pot plants and family pics.

6. Wall Brackets

When I hear the words ‘wall brackets’, I imagine heavy, clunky installations, but this idea proved me wrong.

How light and airy are these beautiful gold wire wall brackets? Take inspiration from this stunning craft room layout idea and organize your paints, glues, glitters, tools, scrapbook paper, ribbons, Washi tapes, and more.

You can make your brackets even more versatile by adding baskets, hanging rods, hooks, and containers to hold items that don’t hang easily.

13. Light and White

I am obsessed with this airy, light, and white room. If your craft room is dark and dreary, consider installing lights like these that mimic natural sunlight, reduce eye strain, and make colors appear true to life.

Choose soothing shades like off-white, cream, eggshell, or ivory to paint your craft room walls. These calming, relaxing, neutral tones create a serene atmosphere, perfect for letting your creativity flow.
