So, I had mentioned that we moved the office and that it got combined with my craft area....so here's before:
This is the desk where I worked at the computer...its in the dining room right by the kitchen...great for watching kids, not fantastic for any sort of concentration or workspace.
This is the craft room/guest room and I had the whole room...I really was spread out a lot more than I thought I was...LOTS of stuff. However, none of the space was terribly workable and it was dark and in the basement, so not a wonderful place to hang out and work either.
So, now:
This is my new desk setup....bright and sunny with needlework workspace next to the computer! The picture over my desk is an illustration that I put a down payment on before Cheyenne was born and now she says "I don't like it" and didn't want it in her room...so FINE! I get it! :-) I can turn around and get any of my supplies:
In this area. I can actually scoot a chair up and sew here, and almost everything is organized on the shelves behind. I have another little shelf with my beads to the right of here....it's pretty cool. So far so good!

Isn't it nice to actually have a whole room devoted to your art? When J was born, all i had was a closet--it *was* about 5 X 5 but it was 10 feet tall so was crammed!!! Proportionately, i think i created more in that closet than when i graduated to a "real" room.
Luxuriate in it!!!

The sewing area is fairly tight, but keep in mind I almost NEVER use a machine! ;-) I supposed if I get into big projects I'll maybe build a table that extends out onto the front of that...that might help with the sewing?
Great to have your own space, however small.
I like your computer set up by the window but the sewing space seems tight to me.
