I love the floral decals & those are the cutest hearts playing cards. Inflatable furniture lol that would last about 5 minutes in my house & all I would have is deflatable furniture! Great haul & I know you’re going to enjoy a cup of coffee & flipping through that sears catalog! Thanks for sharing! 💚
Thank you 🤗
Just stumbled on this; I’m curious what the item is on the table that’s holding doily’s etc. also, love the suitcases-so cute. The tackle box would be great for my 7yo granddaughter-the one she has doesn’t lay flat so my daughter is constantly picking up little beads off the floor(or stepping in them)
That is called the Sweet Sugarbelle Pop Up Bake Shop Display. I had gotten it on Amazon years ago. Michael's used to have it, but now I see that it is out of stock. You may be able to find on on Ebay.
Thanks for sharing!
Only vacuum I've found worth anything to is my shop vac
Those are great for everything inside and outside!
Love your Amazon store front. I think I may cave in & get the little suitcases I been eyeballing them since you got them. Thank you for your time for the video & thank you for all the great supplies thru Etsy I have many many reviews to leave you, I’m behind, but as always they are 5 star! Thanks Heidi! 💚
You're so welcome Jeannie! That's so nice of you-I appreciate your business! Those suitcases are really fun. I think it's the "small, medium, large" that just make them so cute-and the colors :)
I am new to journaling.
❤ omg I need you to come to my craft room and help me organize!!
Where did you get the turquoise fold out paper storage container?
It's called the Sweet Sugarbelle Pop Up Bake Shop. It's actually for a cookie display. You used to be able to get them on Amazon but they are not available there anymore. I did find them on Michael's website though: www.michaels.com/product/sweet-sugarbelle-pop-up-bake-shop-D567958S
OMGoodness, I owned some of those How and Why Wonder Books as a child, who knew after all these years they would be considered "vintage." My favorite one was about Trees.
I always enjoy watching your craft room vids to see what you are up to and things you find. Just thought you would want to know that many of your Temu Links go to the daisy flowers not what product is mentioned. See ya next time gina
Oh thanks so much for telling me! I just fixed all the links.
Like this idea better than binders. I did that but it was a pain - TFS.
This tour was so helpful in categorizing supplies into themes and uses. It was a great tutorial in ephemera and what could be used in journals etc. I never thought of business supplies as a separate theme. The other lesson learned was that everything doesn't have to match and your layout was terrific Thanks so much.😊
Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Staying organized definitely keeps my workflow efficient. Even if I only have a few minutes to work on something, I can quickly find the supplies I need and get to work.
This was super helpful! Thanks so much!❤
What a fun overview of your ephemera packs. I like how you give ideas on how they can be used. Thank you for this visual feast of creative ideas.
Thank you for sharing all your cool vintage ephemera with us. So many memories looking through these from my past. Wish I had held onto more just for the nostalgia.😊
Thanks so much for subscribing! Yes, I too wish I would have held on to all the fun stuff I had from decades ago. It is so fun to rediscover things I forgot.
Thank you for showing us “behind the scenes” crafting. Your creative process is a beautiful thing! Especially all your vintage goodies!
I am so excited to subscribe to your channel. I found your link on Etsy and can’t tell you how wonderful it is to see someone who has the same fondness for vintage ephemera as myself. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with those of us just beginning!
You hqve an amazing collection i have just started my journey this is what i dream my collection to be one day
Thanks! I've had so much fun searching--it's one of the best parts of the process :).
I love all the stuff you got!! The dog is adorable ❤❤😊
Thanks! I'm so glad I got him! :)
Thanks for sharing your fun finds! Betsey Clark is the name for your wrapping paper find.
Oh yes! Thank you!
Such amazing finds! I can’t wait to see what you do with these things, again, love the planter! TFS! Crafty hugs 🤗 teri
So many fantastic items! I just love the procured ephemera packs. I just ordered from your shop and cant wait to see these items in person. Thanks Heidi! Crafty hugs 🤗 Teri
Oh thanks so much Teri! Enjoy your kits! :)
Another successful journal! I love your vintage style the journal is so well laid out I really like the additional ephemera, cute stuff! TFS, crafty hugs 🤗 teri
thanks for all the tips! where did you get the glass craft mat on your desk?
I got that from Amazon: amzn.to/3JY7boY (affiliate link) I really like how you can wipe everything off when you make a mess. Plus it has gridlines!
OMG! I’m drooling and have a sudden urge to go thrifting!
It's so much fun!
I adore October Afternoon.....I really loved Make It Merry. I have that brownie/cookie holder too...it is so fun! You are busy and I think this cookbook will be cool! tfs gina
Make it Merry--that's a great one! I loved waiting every year to see what the new Christmas OA would look like. I still have some of that left :).
Nice craft space.
Pretty
Great haul! I love watching what people find thrifting for junk journal supplies. I love the vintage gardening books they are great! The recipe tin is a great find. Love hearing your ideas on how you want to use your finds. Thank you for sharing 💚
Thank you for sharing your stencil storage. I have just changed my storage for the third time. 😱😩😳 Not sure why I didn’t try it this way. This looks like something that might actually work for me. Because it’s exactly how I have my embossing folders stored, and I love it! I could have saved the expense of the binders and sleeves I just bought for my stencils! I love that you also shared all your categories! Many crafters show you their storage system, but never tell you their categories. I strain to see what they are, but you can never read the labels. 😅 I really appreciate that you specifically told what categories you use. I just saw a company selling plastic binder dividers for stencils and they had 5 dividers for 16.99! Their categories were Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall and Holiday. That was quite disappointing. I’ve been keeping mine according to manufacturer, but I was recently thinking I need to group them in “like” categories. I love stencils, and literally have a couple hundred. They used to be really cheap before companies started making “layering” stencils. I only have a few of those. I also have some 8.5x11 up to 12x12 stencils. The larger ones I put in a 12x12 plastic storage container. 😑😌Thank you for sharing this idea. I love it! 💙
Love what you found ❤ I like the tin box 😊
I love those vintage catalogs.🎉
Oh they are my favorite! Sometimes I'll just sit and flip through them for fun and memories :).
Hi, just found your vid and loving it. 😊 can you please tell me where I can purchase you stamp tabulis stamping tool ? I would find it useful and it is really pretty.
I love that tool! I got it from Etsy- here’s the link if you’re interested 😀 www.etsy.com/shop/Stamptabulous
What is the aqua colored cascading plastic holder on the desk It’s so unique thanks
Hi! It's actually a display from Sweet Sugarbelle I picked up on Amazon. amzn.to/3U0jNQO. It says it's currently "unavailable" unfortunately, but sometimes they come back in stock. I've seen them at Michael's online as well. I like this for rounding up all my ephemera bits as I'm creating journals. Plus, it looks cute on the desk :).
Beautiful cards!
Thanks so much!
Hi sweetie! Thanks for sharing all the good things you are up to.😁
Hi from Carol in the uk.
Welcome!
Very nice 🌸💕🌷 Great ideas
Absolutely beautiful and so fun! You did a great job on this journal! Very inspiring! TFS! Crafty hugs 🤗 teri
Thank you so much!
@@BlueScallopCreations do you post on Instagram first? This sold in a hurry. I wondered if you had a kitchen ephemera pack you might could list on Etsy? Making a cookbook journal myself but need things other than old recipes
I usually post on KZread first right after I post the journals in the shop-this one did sell very fast. I can definitely put together a nice mix of kitchen ephemera. I'll work on that for the weekend. I think if you follow my shop, you can get an update once the kit goes in too. I'll post the kits on Instagram as well--thanks so much for reaching out! :).
@@BlueScallopCreations thank you!
Absolutely beautiful!! So creative!! ❤❤❤
Thank you! 😊
What do you do with your 12x12" stencils?
I only have a couple of those and I just slide them next to the cart that is holding my stencils.
I share a love for vintage and love how you don’t tuck everything out of site. I have the same plastic greenhouse! When I can get to the goodwill outlet, it’s been a great source for vintage items and other craft supplies. Thanks for the tour!
Thanks so much for watching!
Super helpful video! I'm reorganizing my craft room and have been looking for ideas on how to store the hoard of vintage ephemera that I seem to have acquired in the last couple of years. I didn't realize how much I actually have until I started really getting things sorted into categories! Thank you for sharing your way of using the original boxes with retro containers to make an attractive display while staying organized. I also really like your eclectic style rather than using only the "perfect" matching white IKEA or container store storage and furniture. Your way is more creative and inspiring.🥰
Oh that makes me so happy! Thanks so much, I'm glad you found my video helpful.
Wow this journal is beautiful ♥
New subscriber here! I’ve watched a few of your videos tonight and see that your style of journals really match the kind of journal style I would like create for myself. I really hope to make at least one journal for myself this year! Thank you for showing us your beautiful page ideas! You are so talented!!
Amy, thanks so much for subscribing! I'm glad you're finding the videos useful. Definitely try the journal. They're so much fun to make!
Such a delightful and beautiful journal! Wow!
This studio tour was so helpful! I am new to the channel and like all of your colorful supplies and organization! I will look forward to seeing more of your videos!
Absolutely amazing! I knew it could be done, well I d hoped it could be done! I love it! I have similar pieces, but hadn’t thought to use them like you have. EVERYTHING HAS A PLACE!!! ❤🥰😍❤ From you, I’ve learned that I prefer to flip through my things, not dig. Also, it’s alright to designate one product to an entire drawer! 😊 And, I love cubbies, but I need to see the back, so pulling out is the easiest way for me to access the back. Wow! Thank you so much for sharing this lovely space brimming with so many ideas! ❤
Thanks so much for your kind comments! I’m so happy the video helped. Vintage things are a little more difficult to organize so it’s always a work in progress 😀
First time watching. Love your set up. Been trying to figure out how to rework my very small craft area. Got some ideas now. Also need to get myself a color wheel. I struggle sometimes with color coordination. Thank you. Signing up for your newsletter also.
Thank you so much-I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely beautiful! 😍 TFS!
Thank you! 😊
