Divide a Room Into Spaces

Polly Maly's creative space took a lot of work to pull off, but it ended with a functional, accessible, and all-around pretty room. This roughly 15X15' room, reorganized by designer Cathy Kramer, became a powerhouse when broken down into dedicated zones for different tasks and supplies: (left to right) tool station, embellishments and photos, computer center, stamping supplies. Paper and books are stored along the far right side of the room.
