How do I create a functional crafting space in a breakfast nook?
We are moving into a new rental, but only for a year. I won’t have the space for a full fledged crafting room, so I’m going to be using the breakfast nook, which means it’s going to be open for all to see. I want it to be as functional as possible. I make wreaths and home decor. I’ll be hanging the finished products around the house, so that won’t be an issue. My issue is all of my crafting supplies, especially how to organize my flowers so they don’t get flattened or warped. Any budget friendly ideas? Thanks!

If it's possible, a small cabinet tucked in the corner would be best. Your supplies and flowers could be stored there. I would put the flowers in baskets on the shelves. They wont get crushed and they'll be protected from dust and light.
Hi Shannon! My suggestion would be to use some large baskets. The kind that you'd use for big floor plants. You can then just store your flowers upright, like a big bouquet. Here's a link to an example:
