Design A Scrapbook Room

Anyone who has made a scrapbook page realizes the need for organization and space in order to create the perfect design. There are so many types of scrapbook supplies, one can easily become overwhelmed by not having a specific area to work. A scrapbook room with proper furniture, work area, lighting and shelving provides the perfect creative environment. The following steps outline design a scrapbook room.


Instructions


Create a Scrapbook Room


1. Select and measure the area where the scrapbook room will be located. Write down the measurements. Include any closet space.


2. Review your scrapbook supplies and determine exactly what supplies require storage. Examine any furniture you seek to utilize in the room and take measurements of the furniture. If purchasing furniture, visit craft stores to assess whether specially designed scrapbook furniture will fulfill your scrapbook room design plan.


3. Examine the lighting source in the scrapbook room and determine where your primary workspace will be located. Check to see that the lighting source is adequate. If the source is inadequate, decide where additional lighting is required and obtain the lighting.


4. Make a drawing of the space, utilizing the measurements of the room and the furniture as a guide. Decide the best layout for furniture placement, shelving placement and the primary work space. Review the dimensions of the closet space, if any, and determine whether you can utilize this space in your room design.


5. Install shelving (according to manufacturer's directions), furniture and lighting where indicated on the drawing. Add scrapbook supplies to the shelving and furniture pieces, if appropriate.
