5 Organization Hacks || Craft Room Organization 

Great idea!!

You are genius for putting wheels on your machines. My wooden file cabinet will soon have wheels. And you convinced me to go for the peg board system. Thanks bunches of 🌹🌺!!!! .

Do you think the wheels would hold a coffee pot. I'd love to put whe

@@Kera.S. They work on many things including coffee machines.

I just added a pegboard from the Dollar Tree store. I loved your information about the diy shelves! I may have to borrow that one👏🏻

I hang my quilting rulers on a corkboard, using thumb tacks.

Yes, those would work well on here!

Yes!! That is what this is....a Home Depot board customized with decoupage and old fence slats!

Helps alot!

I am lucky to have my own space for sure. I think organization is pretty key, no matter how much space you have. And yes, if you have a smaller space of section of a room, you have to destash some of the "extra" product that is cluttering.

Your space can be small but mighty. I turned my walk in closet into a craft room. It's just a 6 ft folding table in a closet. I started my channel a couple of weeks ago if you want to talk. I can relate to your scenario.❤

I use under the bed plastic containers. I can place 6 under a low twin bed. 8-9 under double size. Good luck!

Omg..we are in the same boat...no space to craft.. Money is the issue and ny husband hasn't get it..hobbies at 65 years old... saves the aging of the brain..it allows a woman to feel useful and creative..life is better then...men sometimes suppress our life..????😢😮

I learned that from Jennifer on the channel "How to ADHD". The concept is "Point of Performance". Where do you perform what in the craft space? Store your inventory close to that point of performance. Since my living room/dining room has to serve as a craft room as well, I created a craft space from a sewing table which lives behind my comfy TV chair. Embroidery, knitting, crochting are done when I'm in that chair. So the needed items are stored very close by. Paper-crafting/cardmaking/water-coloring are done at that sewing-table. My paper cutter/scoring tool, die-cutting machine, laminator are stored on a four tier rack on casters. Easy to move around. Side note: I'm mobility impaired. I equipped that crafting table with an electric extension chord. Items I need to collect to start my crafting session will be in a catch-all container, a small tray. Carts are fantastic, I use one of them for my tools (scalpels, box-cutters, scissors, hole-punches, rulers etc) and clean-up items storage, another as storage of my machines (see above). How did I organize my many interests? As you may have guessed already, I have many interests. First, de-cluttering to create space. There is no way around it. Second, what are all your interests? You'll come across them as you de-clutter. Third, what are your topics on, say, card-making? Mine are birds, underwater-scenes, landscapes, winter/Christmas, Steampunk, trees and leaves. I subdivided my stamps, stencils, and cutting dies along those lines in clear bags with a velcro closure. Each bag has a sticker describing what's in it. Easy retrieval and stow away. Sounds as if I mastered organizing? No way near the truth. I'm currently struggling with ephemera. Nonetheless, I'm willing to start a conversation with you, if you like. TLDR!!!

Thank you very much!

YEs! Seems like a simple solution, I can't believe I didn't think of it earlier.

Yes, it helps so much!

I've seen some creators/artists (do this) like Carolyn Dube, who made a spinning lazy Susan type of stencil holder/hanger using a lampshade frame and hanging clip on hooks. Brilliant indeed!

Hehe, that's because you are just so darn busy being creative!

@@ScrappyWifeThat’s so true 😄

Oh, good tip with the plastic containers!

Thanks so much Stefanie! I never really did well with magazine holders either.

Yay! So glad to hear that it helped you out :)

Glad it was helpful for you Donna!

Yay! Always glad to share any tips that I learn.

I am going to purchase them as well. They can be used for so many things. Thank you!

Hopefully these tips help. I know multi-purpose spaces can be hard to organize, but I always like to think of zones when I am organizing those types of spaces.

I have the same...work from home so multiple computers, monitors, printers, and lots of paper! And not the paper I prefer lol. @ilibertyi Does yours have a closet?

Well, a cut out for a closet but no insert or doors. I added cubbies from Target!

Works so well for me!

Those are clear acrylic shelves meant for nail polish. I picked them up on Amazon!

Yes, pegboards are so functional in so many ways!!!

Hehe, except I have hundreds of journals and notebooks 💕💕💕

Sounds great!

Pegboards can just make a huge difference in a space, and I love that you can change them up!

@@ScrappyWife Yes! I love how versatile they are and that you have the ability to change up how you organize based on your needs, which change over time. =)

Works fabulously for large stencils!

Thanks for watching!

Yes, so true! I love getting tips and tricks from others as well!
