rganization I do need
I have totes in totes and cases in those totes. Lol. I TRY to label and keep alike items together, especially since my totes aren’t see through. I hate having to dig through each tote to find one thing and it always ends up being in the last tote of course!!
What I really want to work on is organizing all my colored pencils, markets, etc. Keeping them seperate, but together.
Wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas!!
I don’t have a craft room, but I wish I had one. I just organize my stuff into paper bags
I use recycled/repurposed items – boxes covered to suit the theme, hooks on the walls to store bigger items that can hang, repurposed trolleys, wire baskets repainted , hanging vegetable baskets repainted,wicker baskets painted and hooked on a chain in a corner, repainted wine rack,painted tin cans for items on shelves, desktops. It is somewhat eclectic but it can be rearranged with ease and easily repainted if the mood takes me.
Storage boxes with same color yarn — which means my closet is full
Not very good at organizing so I need help ! LOL
I have a dedicated workroom which is meant to be a bedroom, but we don’t need it as such. The wardrobe shelves are handy for storing boxes of craft materials. I have chest of drawers for storing fabrics and yarn A desk holds my sewing machine, and a table holds the overlocker, and is also used for cutting out. But I am always looking for more storage ideas!
I use plastic storage boxes and notebooks to keep my craft room organized.
Depending upon the project, I organize differently. If crocheting an afghan with many colors; I mark each kind with a letter (a-b-c, etc.). When Christmas wrapping, and knowing tape, ribbon, scissor always seem to get lost; I set up a TV tray and try hard to put these items on it while figuring out what to do mext. Therefore these items are always handy, that is if I remember to put them back on the tray.lol!
I use plastic bins to organize
I don’t have a craft room but I have a bookshelf with shoe boxes/egg cartons/mason jars/cottage cheese containers/plastic totes well labeled on the side and top. I also have an over the door shoe organizer stuffed with craft supplies.
I love to organize my craft room. I use many different types of products to do so, including reclaimed items. Vintage drawers, plastic ones, craft store(went out of business) lazy suzan shelving, etc. Whatever works.
I use the big plastic totes …. need a better system for smaller items
i need all the help i can get
I have to organize my crafting project better. Need to make labels that can be changed as professional are completed and news ones are started.
I just got my own craft room and am having a ball organizing and setting it up!! 🙂
My crafts are stored in plastic storage bins, stacked to the ceiling. Unfortunately, only the top bins are easily accessible. I definitely need more organization!
Organization in my craft room is essential for me! I bought a tall, skinny chest of drawers at a local craft store to hold my craft supplies. It has 20 drawers and each one is labeled with a cute sticker to tell me what’s inside. The chest is colorful and perfect for what I need!
Totes, totes and more totes.
Hello everyone. Happy Holidays! I am semi-organized. Right now I use old cardboard boxes to store ALL of my crafting materials, marked with a Sharpie. When I say semi, I mean it. There are boxes that say YARD, CROCHET THREAD, CARD STOCK, COLORED PAPER, COLOR PENCILS, etc. Get my meaning? If I could win these 2 boxes, they would be a starting point of getting rid of the cardboard boxes. You should see the smallest room in my home. It contains my personal computer on a small computer desk and the rest of the space is filled from floor to ceiling with cardboard boxes. Someone would think I am running a home-based business, LOL.
I use new pizza boxes to store my papers in labeled whats inside stack-able totes and boxes .lots of totes.
My mom and I use whatever we have on hand. We have cubes that we use, a couple old tv armoires that we use as well.
I prefer to have like things together but if I have everything gathered for a particular project I box them and the instruction/pattern in box by itself. That way I just grab the box when ready to work on the project.
Great suggestions
I have a semi craft room/office since my husband shares the space. In the closet I set up with closet organizers with the shelves and drawers with baskets on the bottom. Against our back wall is bookcases and cubicles that stores my crafting books and my vessels for flower arrangements. I use pretty boxes and baskets, glass jars for buttons etc. My wool which is my biggest bane is in totes in other closets of the house. Nothing is labled so I’m only semi organized. Good Luck !
I have a tiny apartment with no craft room. My supplies are tidy in boxes and on shelves… by necessity!
I use totes to organize.
I find that clear storage bins of various sizes help me stay organized. Each of the bins have a computer printed label identifying the contents. I have shelves in a closet as well as book cases for the storage of these bins.
I have bookshelf’s or cabinets where I keep everything in neat labeled containers,
I don’t have a craft room so my stuff is organized in parts of two different rooms; flat bins slid under the couch, a small bookshelf that holds those little wooden clementine crates, etc. It’s not always handy but it’s tidy and stylish. 🙂
I have my sewing/craft organized by using bins that set on shelves
I do not have a craft room. I have tried to organize my supplies over the years but it isn’t consistent. I enjoy making several different types of crafts, from cards to collage, stained glass to painting. I also make jewelry; earrings and brooches. I like trying new things. I would love to start the new year organizing everything so that it is easily accessible. When I have an inspirational moment, an idea that I want to pursue, who knows what I could create if I didn’t have to stop and find the supplies. Although I have come across things that I had forgotten about, that changed my original idea and turned out great.
I do a lot of different projects and crafts in a very limited space, so my options are limited as well. I use many kinds of containers for keeping things organized. Most things are on rollers under the bed that I can pull out as needed.
I am so disorganised it’s pathetic. I need help!!!
I have some small totes and boxes but still need lots
of help to get it organized
I have just started to get serious about using our spare room (which has a lot of stuff besides craft/sewing materials). I use totes and other smaller plastic containers to store my craft supplies. I have put labels on them so I don’t have to keep looking through each one to know what is there. I keep the most used supplies where they are easier for me to reach. It’s working so far!
I dont have a craft room, so I currently store all of my crafts in a variety of totes which are all labeled. Im always searching for craft storage ideas. Thank you for the chance to win such an awesome prize.
Alphabetically
I store my fabric on shelves so I can easily see them. I try to sort by fabric type. The project boxes are great to store assorted related notions in one place, (elastic, zippers, binding, etc.) so I can just grab the box and quickly see what I have on hand for a project.
I strive for organization and desperately need help
I organize with bins and a label printer
I could use help but I try. Lots of baskets and clear boxes.
Being on a tight budget, many of my craft items are in labeled shoe boxes and other re-purposed household items. I keep ink pads organized in an old cassette tape holder, crafting tools are in a kitchen lazy susan, buttons are in clear plastic deli meat containers, and smaller items, such as extra beads and sequins are in containers that cupcake papers came in. I would love to add some lovely craft containers to my space, and use them as they’re intended to be used.
I do best with see-thru bins, boxes and bags. If I use boxes, etc. I loose track of what I have.
I’d love to say my crafts are organized but that would be a bold faced lie!! I got baggies, thousands of baggies full of stuff in a few totes. I think I am a hot mess 🙁
I organize with small and medium sized tubberware containers. I like for them to be solid colored so the mess inside doesnt show. Then I label each one with masking tape and a sharpie and stack them. I also use those boxes that fishers use to put their fishing stuff in. I got one for free and obviously had to put it to use. I also have a bin that i put all my unfinished projects in. Its a big bin.
We have lots of tubs of supplies.
I dont have a craft room but I use fabric covered boxes and plastic drawer units to organise all my stash! ☺
Out of control!
Currently, everything is in random, raggedy old school folders and stuffed in a drawer that’s overflowing lol. I NEED this win!!
I keep all of my yarn and material in plastic storage containers and all of my patterns in binders.
I store using ziplock baggies.
I do not actually have a craft room. I have an all-purpose room and it is a hot mess. It is not really organized, unless you count boxes and bags all over the floor! hahahahah!
I have a lot of different drawers and organizers in my room to organize my craft supplies. I also use clear cases, and make sure to label everything.
My craft room is organization in progress, I have multiple storage containers that I use, but it seems I add more to my space than I have storage available.
This would be great for my teenage daughter, she is very crafty and is getting quite the collection of odds & ends!
I try to keep projects organized in boxes that are labeled.
Right now I have a lot of stuff in plastic grocery bags. Since I am currently setting up my craft room I could really use some more containers.
No craft room, little organization. plastic grocery bags, tote bags, boxes, piles on the table… Help!!!
I have a 10’x10′ shed
I had built to be my
craft shed. I have
cabinets and a work
bench with drawers.
I have washi tape
holders for my collection,
two roll a way towers
to hold paper packs

Truthfully my craft room is not well organized, at the current time you could call it a disaster. Is on my to do list to try to get it organized.
I don’t have a craft room, so I use storage bins

I keep things in boxes on shelves.
I organize it in baskets and bins
I moved this summer so my craft room has not been set up yet. It has become a drop zone.
I love using stackable baskets. I love the look and feel of baskets and they really stimulate my creativity!
Clear plastic bins!
I don’t have a craft room. I try to keep my craft supplies organized in labeled totes.
I have a set of stacking bins where most of my yarn and fabric live but there is always overflow because I can’t resist a bargain on craft supplies.
I have two rolling carts with color coded drawers for my supplies.
I don’t have a craft room. I use the kitchen table or go in the living room. My system is basically I know where it is and if anyone touches it I am lost. I really need to work on organization.
I have different size totes full of yarn and a notebook listing the colors, brand and quantity in each one. I forget to mark down when I use any. I also have a lot of different size container bins, boxes, etc. with all of the different craft supplies for all the crafting I do. But, my craft room still needs a lot of work and organizing. Too many plastic bags of stuff.
My 6 yr old granddaughter and I love to craft together. We have tried to set up a room just for us. Your tips have been very helpful in trying to keep us organized. Now we spend more time crafting instead of looking for things Thank You.
I don’t have a craft room 🙁 . I keep all of my crafting supplies in large totes in the basement.
Plastic containers, repurposed boxes, accordion file folders, rolling carts but still need more organization to be able to get more craft supplies and a place to put them
I use lots of modular drawers and closet organizers in my laundry-sewing-craft room.
I use clear plastic tote bins and folders. These will be an improvement!
I organize my craft room by putting all the like things together and always putting things away when i bring them into the craft room.
A walk-in closet.
Even though I have a designated sewing area, I like to do needle/hook work in a comfy chair in the family room. To this purpose I tuck storage containers/cubes next to and behind the chair. These see through boxes with handles would be perfect for my set-up. Thank you for this opportunity to win these.
I am a person that is compulsively organized. Yours looks like a great system. I use some similar items but these look like the best have seen. How wonderful it would be to walk into my craft room and see every item has its own place
I could certainly use some organisation assistance.
i havent organized my craft room yet but I really want to!!! its on my to do list

I don’t have a craft room. We keep craft supplies on various shelves in bright colored bins from the Dollar Tree.

I use plastic containers to organize.
I use lots of bins and shelves.
I love to use these types of boxes to organize my craft supplies.
Right now its almost chaos. The closets are bursting, the shelves are full and the cabinets don’t close. I need help organizing. I’ve started in one corner and am working my way around the sewing room, but as things are discovered that belong in a different room the weaving room floor is getting filled up. I need help!
I use boxes or baskets I find at the dollar store and organize them, like with like, on a big bookcase in my guest room.

Storage drawers and boxes to keep everything tidy.
I don’t have a craft room, yet. All my ‘stuff’ is scattered around the house, in closets and under beds.

This looks like just the ticket for organizing a craft project. Can’t finish in one sitting? No worries. Just tuck into the box til next time.
I live in an RV so space is at a premium.
I try to organize by item, size, type, etc. I try to keep my most used items close by so up and down isnt an issue all the time.

I don’t have a craft room really. But I keep my craft supplies organized in boxes, small jars, and plastic bags.
