Storage Chests are 'Collectible Furnishings' so they count against that limit. You can place the same chest in all your homes, but your smaller houses will be limited to only a couple collectibles. You can only place two storage chest in Inns for example with ESO+, so you can't place all your Storage Chests in all your houses if they're smaller size. And that limit is shared with Trophies, and other collectible furniture like the Vvardenfell model, the Elsweyr Mural, the Fan from Summerset, etc.

Crafting Stations are individual furniture that are stored in your bag, not collections, so they function like regular furniture. You can only place one item in one house. You can of course buy multiples and place them in several homes, but if you want two houses to have a Jewellry Station, you need to buy two stations.

Since the Inns are essentially free, you could get a few of those and make one your crafting room.

If you have some gold. Get a Mid Sized Manor like Mournoth in Bangkori

Own both of those houses, Mornoth Keep is currently the Guild Hall but I just purchased Forsaken Stronghold for Guild Hall.

I’ll just buy set of basic stations for my Rift home for when I want some quiet time.

Thx 4 the tips
