Well, sounds like I am one of the only folks that have a specific place to do most of work from. I have a separate outbuilding (my studio). I do al lot of crafts other than just beading though. I am getting read y to remodel it so it is more functional but I still currently have different areas for different crafts. and lots of storage areas for raw materials. I have an area dedicated to roaches (how I make my living), an area for sewing, an areas for general craft work like feather work and currently silverwork as well but when I remodel there will be a totally separate are for this. Just don't forget lots of shelving to store the raw supplies. But then you probably won't be doing nearly as many different things as regularly I as I do.

Now to be specific about beading....I store my beads in the studio but I do my beadwork were ever it takes to get the project done. I like to have a table or a tray next to a comfortable chair hear at home, but I bead at dances and while I am catfishing and anywhere else I have to so the project gets done fast as possible. I have a small craft box that I carry all my tools in so I can travel and bead as needed.
