Your first step in setting up a home art studio is finding a space you can claim as your own. Maybe the space is a guest room that's mostly unused, a portion of your laundry room, a mudroom, a corner in your garage, or even a backyard shed that's just collecting junk.

Design a Basement Art Studio Add shelving or wall-mounted easels to save up floor space and proper lighting if the stairs are located in a basement. A small desk can also be added for producing any digital artwork on the computer. Just make sure you check for nearby outlets as you design your DIY art room!
