A view of my fly tying/model building/jewelry making craft center. Organized Chaos. It's not as scattered as my brain. Post pix of your creative area (yeah I know it's been done before)

When I bought my house a couple of years ago, there was a small room with the heating a/c unit in it. It really wasn't big enough for anything special. Luckily my wife said I could keep all my fishing, hunting and outdoor stuff in there. Well I turned it into my man cave workshop. The boy and I spend hours in there tying flies, going through all of our hunting and fishing stuff, and just relaxing. I am lucky to have a spot.

You all have some very organized setups...My desk includes my extra desk in my dorm room because I am an RA. My stuff is in 4 boxes separated by "function". Hope I can have a room like that one day!
 
My tying area is getting there slowly but surely. Still fairly new to this house and I can't seem to find about a quarter of my tying materials since I moved. The current desk space that I work on is cut off in the pic but it goes about 10 more feet and there is more pegboard... I thought I was going to like the pegboard system because it would help me get organized, well that isn't happening. I guess it's all part of the never ending evolution and tinkering of your typical fly tyer/angler.

Awesome room, awesome desk and I envy you the piano.

It's really only a corner, literally. The doorway to the left of the desk face into the kitchen.

The piano is my wife's grandmother's Story and Clark. We had it refinished a while ago and it looks incredible. The gentleman that redid it even had a new Story and Clark decal made up for it!

I may move things upstairs but like the light from the window and I would lose that.
 
I don't have a dedicated spot, usually just end up at my dining room table. Just picked this up yesterday off of craigslist. Needs some refinishing, but will be where I set my vise and such.

Now that's an up-town setting!
 
Just my old computer desk transformed into a tying station. Not elaborate at all but it works.

I just got some wood working tool and will be playing with turkey call making. I added a small table in which I will be keeping my fly tying stuff as well.

RedRock I still have a green creel like the one hanging there. It was my grandmothers. I will be passing it down to my son some day.
 
holy crap I don't dare post mine.

My organizational skills are non existent. As a matter of fact, from sometime closer to my annual spring trip south, till oh, freeze up, my bench is in some form of tornado aftermath. Somehow, I still know where everything is at.

Not to include that I also paint arrows on the same bench, I have hooks, nocks, field points, and feathers in the same dish at times haha.
