You have an absolutely organized studio. You think like I do in my organization. I like using quality materials for organizing and for making a lot of paper crafting, but also use oil, acrylic and learning watercolor my art. My room needs some personality though, but I’m working on it. I do crocheting as well as coloring. That’s a lot of hobbies to put in an 11x 13 room! All of that isn’t so bad until I start decorating the house for a holiday. Then it’s crazy time. My husband said he would give me $100 to stop bringing silk flowers into our home. I should have taken it. Lol

I don't understand all the thumbs down (negative keyboard trolls) - it's a perfect craft space and so beautifully organised and inspiring. TYFS :)

I enjoyed your craft room tour. TFS. Have a wonderful week. 💚💚💚

Oooooo, Ahhhhhh! Lovely space. What a great space for you and your granddaughter to bliss out on creating.

Love your new room. I have been working to purge and organising my sewing, craft, bedroom, bath rooms upstairs. I will wait until spring to do the down stairs. Love a completely clean house in the spring. 💓 Love how your furniture is white and clean. So happy for you. Have fun in your new room, and with your granddaughter.💖💖💖🙋‍♀️

I truly enjoyed your before & after videos! I think you are correct about clutter hampering creativity. I love the idea of repurposing things and putting the most used items accessible from where you sit while crafting. You inspired me to take the tidying challenge and I actually made visible progress today in my craft space. Bravo! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you, Leigh! I've been on such a repurposing mission lately. So often in the past I've spent $$ on organizing items that just didn't work. I'm being much more particular these days. My husband & my wallet appreciate that very much! Haha!

I love your craft room...especially your drawer for your granddaughter. I have a three year old and I am going to copy this idea as I think he will love it! Thank you. Mary

A well organized room Cindy, I love your little craft space for your grand daughter. I have a craft space in my room for my two little grandsons (5 & 7) and they LOVE it. Nothing keeps me motivated more than a clean and organized space to craft in.

Wonderful job organizing! Your room is perfect!

I love your space!!! You did a beautiful job rearranging and organizing your stash. I love KonMari and like how you had your "JOY" items displayed. Your rainbow button jar has me wishing I had kept my stash of buttons and did that, it is beautiful. I also really like your idea of taking apart the black hardware bin and using just the drawer parts to sort your stuff in your craft table. I had to watch it twice to figure it out. Your space is perfect! Any bigger and a person risks having so much stuff their brain gets swamped with ideas and nothing gets made. Another crafter mentioned this happening to her. As long as you make your space your own, as you did, it is the perfect size!!thanks so much!!

Love your craft room. I’m going to tape mine too. Have never posted anything on KZread. You have inspired me! Be blessed.

Super organized. I enjoy the esthetics of all the organization by color. But the thing I admire most is your generosity in sharing your very special space with your granddaughter. Only a super loving grandma would be willing to share her craft storage area.

Aw, what a sweet thing to say. It is such a beautiful gift to get to spend so much time with my granddaughters. I know not everyone has that opportunity; so I don't want to waste a single moment. 💗

Oh Cindy, I am so jealous! I have been looking at so many "craft room tour" videos since January as I have recently reclaimed one of the bedrooms in the house as my craft room. I am using crutches at the moment to get around with so I feel I have a bit more of a challenge when trying to figure out how to set up my room and what cupboards, shelving, etc, to use, to set up my room. That and I am unemployed right now, so the less money I use to set up my room, but that it still looks swish, the more I have left over to buy goodies :-) I love the little table and chairs you have for your granddaughter! So cute! Thank you for doing this video. I have seen a lot of rooms, which are to die for, but are nothing like mine *chuckles* But your room has given me some good ideas that suit my needs and wants the best. I wish I could clone your room and transport it to Australia! Thanks again Cindy :-)

When we downsizedfrom 2200 sq ft to 1500 I had to do some very serious downsizing in 2016. Going through stacks of paper I found some from the 1990s when I was a Creative Memories consultanf! I also realized I wasn't using any of my papers & always went out to buy new papers for current project. Now I have a small collecyion of solid papers and a very small amount if patterned paoers and 4-5 oads if 12x12. I had lots of stamp sets,most of which I hadn't even opened from 19 years ago or so. I sorted through them and kept one or 2 sers for each season and some sentinent sets. I also got rid of nearly all my buttons. I had them in jars, plastic boxes, ckear zipper pouches (that I made). Now, if I need bottons I just buy what I need. I donated to a childcare center & azad senior day care center, both of which were very appreciative.

Where did you find the what your stamps are in and what your Coptic markers are in?

It’s very time consuming, but very gratifying! Just when I think I’m almost done, I find a better idea on how to store it/organize it!! Lol! Thanks so much! Liz😊💗👍🏼

This is one of the best room transformations I’ve ever seen. Gorgeous bright, clean space! I moved over a year ago from a room I had for 10 years into one that is 3 times bigger, and had fun getting it all settled in, and now I’m in the “organize drawers and pretty it up” phase. Got some good ideas for a few areas from this. (I’m a scrapbooked not card maker, so adapting). I am curious, you seemed to have gotten rid of a ton of stuff. Did you straight up chuck it/donate it, or did you store in deep storage somewhere? Again, lovely room!!!
