Help creating a craft room that serves as a nursery for 1st grandchild

Sherry
I have been on disability leave for chronic Lyme disease. Strength and energy are finally returning as I have lost 100 pounds. I will be a primary caregiver for our first granddaughter and am so excited.
I feel overwhelmed trying to get a dual function out of this room.. welcome any help/ideas offered...
Thank you... I love your website/blog!

I'm heading to bed, but here are some ideas. just lock up your supplies, since it is amazing how fast they learn to escape the crib.

You could put shelves in the closet for the top half for craft storage, and a rod in the bottom for baby clothes.
Enjoy this precious time together, and hope you heal fast.
Hi Sherry Well I really can't add to B. Enne's ideas they are great! I just second the "lock up your supplies" I had a door on everything in my craft room, it wasn't a shared room but it was during the day :) I used the baby proof locks on all door, even the closets and all drawers. No baskets or bins except for their toys. Good luck with your project and here's to a speedy recovery
It would be fun to incorporate some interactive element to the room so he/she can "craft" alongside you soon. Maybe a small kiddie table to color at or mount a chalkboard or a roll of craft paper to the wall down at their level?
