Moline's Craft Room

Moline has a great Craft Room full of floor to ceiling storage studio
I love how the white background makes all the fun colors pop! Haberdashery shelves
She keeps most of her materials in boxes, I love having a basket on the worktable (and a clear worktable at that! Lots of sun peekeing trough the window too.

Maria's Studio





In contrast to my cropspace is the interior modern. For my studio I choose the colors purple and White(& Black). And for the accents I used metal/silver, like the Tim Holtz storage boxes (Cropper Hopper), which I believe are not for sale anymore. Like many other craftrooms I have storage systems from Making Memories and Ikea. Most of the furniture are also from Ikea.

thinking outside the box...

...or inside the box, as the case may be.



We live in a condo, so I'm constantly on the lookout for new storage ideas.  Since I enjoy making cards, I had to get creative when it came to storing my masterpieces (ha, ha...).

These photo boxes (the lid is not featured in the pictures) sit on the shelves in our living room and yet they hide some frequently used greeting cards.  So simple...and yet so nice to have on hand and easily accessible. 

What do your photo boxes hold?

Fun Fabric Boxes

Christina from The Sometimes Crafter shares a tutorial to make these adorable little fabric boxes. A great addition to a crafts room that uses fabric for accents, this would be a great way to coordinate some storage items!

With lots of photos, directions, and tips, the tutorial makes it sound really easy. Now I just need to pull out my sewing machine and give it a try.

Wouldn't they be perfect for all sorts of embellishments like buttons, clips, and ribbon?

Magic Boxes

I spotted this great little tutorial over on Leah's Blog -Life as Lou.


When you can combine craft and storage of craft, that's truly crafty storage!
Imagine these cute little boxes filled with collage cutouts, brads or chipboard shapes.
They would also make beautiful packaging for special gifts.

There's more pictures and full instructions right here.

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!

Really Useful boxes

Thanks to Becks Fagg and her blog I have come across this new storage product:


The UK based crafters are well aware of the Really Useful Boxes, as they are called, or RUB as they are written on the boards. I have quite a few of the boxes in three sizes and, although they are a really good product, they are not perfect for me. The reason is simple: I like boxes that don't stack on top of each other because when I want to get to the bottom one I don't want to have to take all of them out to get to the bottom. However, the stacking situation makes lots of people happy, so who cares what I think!
I also think that this box could be great for Debbie's rub on storage idea which could be adapted for stickers sheets.
