I am about to design a craft studio, so I wanted to see what other people had done. I was glad to see in this book that studio spaces could be organized. I was also reminded that you can never have enough bins and labels. Unfortunately this book covers several different crafting spaces. The one on needlework includes knitting and crochet and does not feature a specific artist. So the suggestions for needlework are fairly generic and sometimes even just flat out wrong. The section on design (color and decorations) was both simplistic and endless. I cannot truly recommend this book and yet if you need a motivation to get your crafts in order, it does have some tips and pictures that might inspire you. ( )

The authors show the work spaces of actual professionals in 6 different crafts for inspiration, with many color photographs. ( )
