Create a clutter-free workspace area

While it's possible to settle in front of the new Great British Sewing Bee series and work on your crochet project or a knitted scarf, for hobbies such as painting or papier-mâché, a dedicated craft table with a flat surface will be a lifesaver so you can get down to work properly. Plus, regardless of whether you're a keen knitter, painter, jeweller or if you like to dabble in a bit of everything – crafty types tend to rack up a lot of supplies, so you'll want somewhere to store them neatly.

A good craft table will have plenty of room for you to get stuck in, along with storage space for all your wools, ribbons, paints or beads; whatever you need to hand for your latest creation! Then you'll just need some chic craft storage to keep everything organised once your desk's in place.

So, here's our round-up of nine of the best craft tables and desks where you can sit down to tackle all your projects – and keep your supplies easily to hand, too.

This table has everything you need to tackle all your creative projects – an adjustable desktop for sketching or working flat, some additional space for keeping your pens and pencils to hand (or for working on bigger pieces), along with lots of storage space for paints, wools or anything you use to create your masterpieces. Even better? The stool is included too.

Dimensions: H77 x W120 x D75cm

So, this is actually a dining room table, but it would work really well as a craft table – especially if you have a smaller space and need multipurpose furniture that works a bit harder.

Lift up the lid and there's plenty of storage space for all your craft necessities, then you can use the roomy table itself to get to work. When you're done, tuck all your bits away and set the table for dinner instead – zero clutter on display.

Dimensions: H77 x W120 x D75cm

If you're a keen artist, a sketching table will help you get a better angle without having to be hunched over for hours. This one, from Hobbycraft, is a good price at under £100.

Dimensions: L90 x W60 x D83cm

This one's for jewellers; it looks really smart and has plenty of useful features. The most notable include three drawers to keep your precious stones and metals handy, a railing around the workspace to avoid your precious beads from rolling off the edge and a lined centre tray to catch and remove scrap metal and filings.

Choose between two types of MDF and hardwood, for an additional fee.

Dimensions: L104 x H110 x D57cm

As well as three drawers for your bits and pieces and a decent work surface to get down to it, this craft table folds in half when you're done, concealing away clutter and ensuring a minimal footprint in your room.

Dimensions: H79 x W59 x D40cm

Again, this hasn't been specifically designed as a craft desk, but we think it would make the perfect workstation for your new project. It fits neatly into the corner of your room, looks terribly chic with that mango wood and brass frame, and has a huge amount of storage space for all your specialist kits – get some baskets to keep everything looking tidy.

Dimensions: H159 x W141 x D99cm

Here's another sleek corner desk. This one has concealed storage, to help keep things looking neat and uniform. We like the retro 70s styling, as well.

Dimensions: H82 x W162 x D160cm

This is expensive, but it's a statement piece in its own right; it will add something beautiful to your room as well as give you a space to draw or paint in peace. It'd double up as a good work-from-home desk, too.

Dimensions: H178 x W90 x D50cm

This one looks very Scandi, has plenty of storage spaces for all your boxes of supplies and is adjustable, so you can raise or lower the desktop depending on whether you need to sit or stand.

Dimensions: L150 x H75 - 90 x D68cm
