Craft Room Wall with Whites and Brights
Hello friends, today EEEP! I am sharing my Craft Room Wall with Whites and Brights. So lately I have spent the last few weeks re-doing my craft room wall, painting, spray painting, staining, sewing, everything! (feel free to check out my old craft room here). I wasn’t enthused with creating in my space anymore, I hated my craft space, and it just overwhelmed me. I needed a change and I must say the change has helped. I wanted to go with more white so I started by spray painting my giant peg board white. I also wanted to make things look cleaner, so I removed the giant yellow shelf I had before, and didn’t over crowd my peg board. I wanted things to be even on both sides of my peg board (unlike before when I used what I had), so the hubby and I visited Home Depot. I picked up a large board and had it cut into 4 pieces, then I stained the wood, and the hubs hung them up with “L” brackets. Even though the space is more cleaned up and whiter and brighter, I couldn’t totally get rid of color. Color is me, and I love this organized cheerful creative space now. I hope you all enjoy the new look.
YAY I am just so excited for today’s post, so with that said “Welcome to my craft room (more like craft wall)” this is a place where I can close the door, turn on Pandora and “CREATE”
All the letters, the two wood ones and the paper mache ones are from JOANNS. I painted the wood ones, added ink it stain to the edges, then dressed up the others with traced and cut out cork board, ribbons, and washi tape on another, and hot glued buttons to another. So fun.
The cute black arrow is new like the shelves and letters, and its also from JOANNS.
The bench I have had for years, and finally bit the bullet and got it painted. I love it. The crates you see too, I also painted and added chalk boards too. They will be a later post.

Love the new clean look! Painting the back board white was such a great idea! Good work lady!
Thank you Pam so much, the white peg board really made it brighter and better. XO jen
It looks fantastic! Great job. Love the crates, for a couple years I’ve wanted to buy them for our pantry. I need to just get them.

That is so funny you say that, I bought the crates over a year ago the last time I was with my MIL. I told her I wanted to re-do my pantry and use them in it. Well I guess I have to buy more. Thanks for the visit and love girl. xo jen
Wow, what a bright fresh change Jen. You’ve given me so many ideas! And thank you as always for the printables!

Your makeover looks great! I really like the simplicity and efficient set up looks so “user friendly”.
I have a couple of those Thirty-One Littles Carry All in my craft room that I use for various things. They are the perfect size for holding sewing notions and what-not. The pattern you have is one of my favorites! 🙂
Thanks for all the great ideas you share with us.
What a FABULOUS wall! Fun, stylish AND functional! Pinning and sharing.

Looks great!!! “Create” looks so creative and just inviting to get all your creative energy out. Just think of all the great things that are going to come out of this space!!! Looking forward to seeing it all. 🙂
Wow, Jen, this is like a crafter’s dream on steroids!! Love what you’ve done…all of it. Can’t wait to see what crafts come out of that new space! 🙂

OMG i’m so in love with this!
Hi Lans,
it was honey oak before and I got it at a thrift store. I think it was a spice rack. I spray painted it and sanded it and used it for paint. Thanks, jen
Love your makeover, looks so much livelier!
Can I ask how you attach all your bits to your pegboards? I got given some but hardly any fixtures & don’t know the best way to attach the many things I’d like to attach, which are all different shapes and sizes. If possible I’d love a solution that won’t cost me a fortune!
Donna, Thank you. You can get metal hooks at hardware stores they are for pegboards and tool benches with peg wholes. They are meant to hold tools, scissors, pails, etc. Thanks again, jen
The “dream” was cute, but the “create” is awesome! I’m afraid I may have to copy the mismatched creativity.
Where in the world did you purchase/find the giant peg board?!? I’m trying to create a craft space in my house and this would be perfect (takes up less space on the floor!!! Love everything about your new and improved crafts area!!! Great job.
Hi Lindy,
When we moved into our home it was in our garage, and I spray painted it white. I believe you can get them at a Hardware store… like Ace Hardware etc. I hope you find one. Thanks, jen
I really like your space. We are in the process of organizing an unused ‘junk’ room & I need your “create.” Do you sell it?
Love the shelves on your pegboard!! Where did you get them and how did you attach?!!
You can find peg boards at Home Depot and I am sure Lowes too. They also sell the hooks for pegboards. Thank you by the way. jen
But… where did all your scissors go?… in the before picture you have several pairs hanging off your board and in the after picture I see only one? I love painting things white and bright colors it makes everything seem more cheerful. Great job
In cute craft jars. wink. jen
Thanks so much for the ideas
