I have been in all sizes of craft spaces before and there are a few organization tools/systems that I reach for over and over again. In this video, I am walking you through some of my favorite organization tools and systems that I have used in each and every craft space that I have every had! Supplies linked below!

    Great Video! Thank you! 🩷 Here’s a tip…. Museum putty, put it on the bottom of your drawer dividers to keep them in place. Easy to remove and use again. I also connect acrylic organizers together using it. No more sliding containers.

    @@ThankfulNanaDiane I don’t think it will hold anything with weight. Maybe a poster. They use it after hanging pictures to keep them straight on the wall so they don’t move. There’s not a specific brand. I got mine on Amazon. I use it for hanging lite items like ribbon on my cabinet doors at Christmas as well as gingerbread men made from craft foam. Only light items. Also I use it on the bottom of decor on shelves so they don’t knock over if bumped or there’s an earthquake. There’s putty and wax. I use both but like the putty better. I hope this helps.

    I really like Dollar Tree clear, plastic shoe boxes with lids. These stack nicely on shelves. Although I have two label makers, I much prefer using Dollar Tree "Adhesive Lable Holder with blank inserts". They come 18 to a pack. Several years ago I would pick up a couple packs each time I hit Dollar Tree so I've built up a good size collection. The labels can easily be replaced and the clear holders stick well to the shoe boxes, notebooks, etc. Clear plastic containers for berries are useful to keep smaller items in the shoe boxes. The lids to these berry containers also "lock" to keep the items in. I've also used the large clear plastic containers that salad greens come in to store ribbons and twine.

    I love drawers. I have several roll around carts with drawers. Now the 7 drawer cart, put it on a dolly I got from Harbor Freight. It has my DMC floss. My big fabrics are in the long 3 drawer roll around cart. Replaced the casters with a big dolly from Harbor Freight. Also hubby made me a cabinet to hold other carts and drawer things. It is also on dollies. As to thrift store finds, an old bread box holds sewing machine accessories. A revolving spice rack for pins, needles and very small things. My bead storage is an old wooden shoe holder cut in thirds. Two of them are the sides of the custom cabinet. Also milk crates are great for yarn.

    My number one organizer are those clear project/kit/collection organizers which I hate seeing vanishing from all suppliers. I‘m talking about those things that are like a 12“ by 12“ paper sleeve but have 3 additional pockets for corresponding stickers and embellishments. I store most of my stash in collections and kits and if I use regular 12“ by 12“ pockets all the heavy stickers and embellishments slide to the bottom of the pocket making access harder and requiring more real estate on my shelves. Cropper hopper used to have them and totally Tiffany, but I haven’t been able to get them lately. Any hints?
