Melissa from Oh, Smudge Craft room

Melissa calls it her "new" rustic crafting space. I think it looks really good. I always like white furniture and bright colours.

As usual, you can see more photos a whole lot more explanation on her blog here.

Louise's Craft Loft

Lousie is a follower of this Blog and says she has gained much inspiration from it for her craft loft.

I always liked this idea to store the paper vertically using a shoe rack.

But I have never seen this idea before for Copics!

You can read all about it here.

Crafters Companion's pen storage

Could this be the ultimate pen storage?

It is made by Crafters Companion (UK craft company but available in the USA too) and  they say it will accommodate any pen type available right now in the craft market. It certainly looks great and has all the interlocking and arranging ways that a crafter would want.

Ps, this is NOT a sponsored post! I haven't tried the system myself (yet) so I can't really comment on it just yet.

Leigh's markers storage idea

Leigh's ideas have been featured previously, and this time she surprised me with this usnual but great design. It is, obviously, a marker storage, but I think it is charming and useful in equal mesure. She sells them on ebay I believe (more info in here).

They are single units that you can assemble in many different ways and decorate as you wish. 

Kathy's Studio

I love the look of this space, it is a very grown up studio don't you think?
The room is 12' x 14'.
And look at this unit:

But this one bellow HAS to be my all time favorite drawer unit. So envious!

In a couple of day, Kathy will share some more ideas.

Tosh's room transformation

From this:

To this:

Same units, just a nice coat of paint over the units and the walls.

I have to say that it is inspiring seeing what people do with what they have got to make it work. (Love Tim Gunn!)

Nichol's Craft Studio

Nichol Magouirk has some fantastic stamp storage on her blog here



There's also a video and picture tour of her gorgeous craft room here

This is Nicol's favorite wall in her studio. "Loads of color + inspiration (and many of my favorite things: buttons, Copics, ribbon, etc."

I think if it were in my room, I'd never leave!

Nicol's Sewing Area

Take a look at this unit, Nicol label's everything. Makes finding what she need's a breeze.



There are lots more storage ideas on her blog here

France's redone Craft room

Harriet's idea: Copic (or any pen) storage

Love this idea from Harriet Hensley. A silverware holder, as seen in a cafeteria or restaurant. An additional advantage is the plastic holder can be removed and taken to your work table.

A tour of Jennifer Ellefson's Creative Space

Jennifer Ellefson has posted a tour around her beautiful craft space


I love the all the white - isn't it peaceful, just perfect to be creative in.


Jenn's main desk area - and in her own words "I like having things within reach, so there are lots of neat little storage options. It all appears to go together, but in reality, it doesn't! ;) I just keep my eyes peeled for good storage pieces, preferably those that go vertical with a small footprint so as not to take up too much space on the surface. If it isn't the right color, I usually just paint it!"

And a second work surface holds her sewing machine, die cut machine and copics


And a closer pic of her copic storage

Michelle's craft room

Take a look at Michelle's craft room


I love the clean and simple look and all that hidden storage.

Shirley's Promarker/Copic idea

Shirley's idea is superb. Funnily enough I always glanced over this Ikea DVD storage rack, but never quite figured what they could be useful for apart from the obvious DVDs. 
Shirle's husband made her this Promarker/Copic cabinet. He cut the trays into 3 and this is what he made. It measures 14" wide and 11" high.

Copic Marker Storage idea.

As many of us, I have been bitten by the Copic Craze and I'm completely addicted. My collecion keeps growing and a simple pencil case doesn't cut it any more. I stumbled upon the blog of one of my I {heart} Copics Design Teammates,Judy. Judy and I both like our Copics to be portable. I have one of these CTMH My Acrylic Organizers on order. Pefect size and shape. You can see the lids of all your markers and small enough to tote around to crops, or in front of the TV. Check out her blog or website for more pictures and/or information.
