\"Multipurpose_Room\"<\/p>\n

Q:\u00a0 Help! I have a spare room in my house that doesn\u2019t get much use.\u00a0 What\u2019s the best way to design a room with a workspace so that it can be multi-purpose for work, hobbies, or crafts?<\/p>\n

-Joan P.<\/p>\n

A:\u00a0 An office or den can easily double up as a craft or hobby room. Get rid of your traditional desk and bring in a long, bench like table. This will create enough space for both your computer and work space, plus allow for a whole different side for hobbies.\u00a0 Consider using a slender floor lamp as opposed to table lamps, so you get more out of your desk space. Another way to save desk space is by placing a peg board above your desk for supplies. The peg board also creates a visually interesting way to organize supplies and stay clutter free. It\u2019s important to have plenty of free space on your desk to really take advantage of its multi-purpose use.<\/p>\n
