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!)

Cassandra's Craftroom Tour

Cassandra has a fabulous workspace, she has revamped it again and invited us all in for a tour, its well worth the trip!



There's lots of storage ideas, all very organised. I love this Copic & Glitter storage.



Cassandra loves her embossing centre/Zutter space: she says: "I love having a designated space to work on embossing projects. Since I wanted to be able to emboss without having to kneel over, I decided to stack my Jetmax Cubes 3 high so they were closer to a counter height which would allow me to stand while embossing. The cubes also allowed ample space to store all of my dies, embossing folders, and Zutter related products. Having a designated space for embossing allows me to keep out what I'm working on at my desk and not have to push everything out of the way to emboss."



The room dimensions are just under 10' x just over 13'.

Don't foget you can visit Cassandra's blog for more photos, there's a direct link here

Marie's Embossing Folder Storage

Storage - it's one of the biggest issues I have with papercrafting and all it's tools!

The other day I wanted my Swiss Dots Cuttlebug embossing folder and it took me 20 minutes to find it!

So I found a little mini milk crate (used for CD storage) and labelled my folders with a Sharpie marker.

I then alphabetized them by Designer.

Check this out:




Yes I know the folder names appear upside down - or so it would seem - but when I'm using them in a class or for a demo they are right side up. 

Besides I can read them easily if I position myself over the crate while I flip through them!

This works for me - maybe it will work for you too!

Wendy studio ideas



I will let Wendy explain:
This is the view looking at the craft room from the window, I could not decide what colour to paint, greens, pinks, lilac were all on my mind but went for plain old white, it does make the room a lot brighter.
I will give you a detail photo and description of each area as we go around the room.



I these little drawers I keep all my promarkers, I have labels on with the colours in each drawer

Where Shantaie Spends Her Days

Greetings everyone! I'm Jessica, and I'm SO excited to join the Crafty Storage blog team! I'm a lover of all things organization - I often joke that I spend more time organizing than I do crafting. So I think I'll fit right in here.

In this post, we step into Shantaie's garage-turned-crafts room.

As you take a look around, you'll see why she says:

"Paper crafting has all but taken over my own little corner of the house {and universe} I like to think of myself as multi-abled, and I don't really tie myself down to only one craft {art} life is too full of fun hobbies to settle for just one :) {plus I have a fear of commitment}"

I'd bet most of us share that sentiment - being creative doesn't mean you must be limited to just one specific craft!

There's a place for everything (and everything in its place) in her bright white room. And don't expect the ordinary craft storage pieces. Shantaie often uses everyday household items to store her tools and supplies, like the Cuttlebug and Big Shot plates tucked away in a napkin holder, and the die cut accessories all perfectly slotted into a shoe organizer.

One of the first things that caught my eye was the four numbered bags hanging on her peg board. Shantaie explained that she uses them to store various craft supplies, including sewing notions, gift wrap/bows/curling ribbon, and lots of buttons!

"I previously had ALL of that hanging on the peg board...it was functional but very "messy" looking thats when I wrangled it all into the fun bags, I numbered them so I could direct friends and family where to look for something I can say "its in bag 3""

To see some of her other great storage ideas, head on over to Shantaie's blog, Inking Pink. Be sure to leave her some love, and if you do, tell her Crafty Storage sent you!

Amandine Magnier's ideas


You can find more photos and explanation of Amandine's studio here. It is in French, but I think craftystorage followers are pretty clever and can figure out what she says!
