There are. Part laundry room, part present wrapping space, the combination area helps you get things done.
This gift wrapping channel has layered light, from the ceiling and under the cabinets — perfect for late-night wrapping jobs and holiday card sharing. The very best part of this command central for vacation wrapping is the chalkboard doorway, making writing names for a present list and crossing them off that much simpler.

Designer Kathryn Donovan says that her client has found the living area of her dreams in this crafts and laundry room. “This is among the most hardworking rooms in the house,” she says. “It is a present wrapping center, a garden shed, a laundry room, the place where she bastes the turkey during Thanksgiving and among her go-to me-time areas in the house.”

And also a nearby window lets in natural light and fresh air — perfect for gift wrapping marathons in the month of December if it is not too cold.

Not everyone is able to carve out an entire room only for gift wrapping and crafting. DIY blogger Bonnie Forkner got crafty and transformed a lonely corner into this cozy crafts nook. She wraps handmade gifts and tackles sewing jobs here year-round.

Organization is crucial when it comes to efficient wrapping — and this present wrapping and crafting haven stows and shows with organization and style in mind.
Woven baskets corral larger supplies and materials that don’t match in the small cubbies and drawers; jars contain buttons and other wrapping and crafting accoutrements; plus a little space between the wrapping table and storage space means everything is obviously only an arm’s reach away.

Wraparound counter space and a huge island table on casters make this cellar workstation a present wrapping maven’s fantasy. Casters on the island make it to be moved directly next to the countertops or placed in the center of the crafts room — all of the demands may be for your holidays.

Homeowner Jessica Young says of this laundry room and gift wrapping station, “You can use different colors [of wrapping paper] for different people during the holidays. It is nice to have a variety to chose from. Storing it in the laundry room is convenient, saves room and keeps everything neat.”
Closet & Storage Concepts
There are a lot of items that I enjoy about this crafts room: ample drawers, loads of containers to keep button-size cabinets and items for larger items. However, the two elements that actually make the room glow for me would be the TV along with the island elevation.
The island workstation is 30 inches wide, 74 inches long and 36 inches high; the elevation makes sitting on a bar stool while working more comfortable, and there’s also the choice of working with ease whilst standing because the tabletop isn’t really low.
And that would not want to see marathon episodes of a popular guilty pleasure while wrapping gifts for the entire family?
