Organize and Pretty Up Your Craft Space

Can you create in a clutter-filled space? I can't. While I freely admit sometimes my "organizing" is more along the lines of 'pile & stack', I bit the bullet and went thru EVERYthing. ...»
Then I made the containers cute.

Then I did a happy dance. Sorry, no video on that. #OrganizedHome

My Real Life Craft Room

"My craft room isn't the chic, monochromatic work space that you see on Pinterest or in a Martha Stewart ad. I designed my craft room to be functional and inspiring, above all else." ...»

What do you think? Should work spaces be function over form or is cleanliness next to godliness?

Craft Room DIY Desk Tutorial

I have a small 10x10ft craft room in my home and needed to find a desk that would provide workspace and storage. After scouring the web and nearby stores, I figured my best option would ...»
be to build my desk using some simple supplies.

I purchased some white kitchen base cabinets from Lowe's, plywood for the base of the desktop, and laminate flooring for a finished look on the top. Add a little molding and it was perfect!

Two places to sit, 10 feet of workspace, plenty of storage, and one happy crafter!

  • I needed a way to organize my ever growing collection of baker's twine.
  • I wanted to display the twine in a mason jar and be able to pull it through the cut-outs in a daisy lid, but I had to find a way to keep it from getting jumbled up inside.
  • I picked up some 6" long bolts, some hex nuts, and some washers at the hardware store.  Then I put the bolt through the top of the daisy cut out lid.
  • Then I alternated spools of twine and washers...
  • ...until it looked like this!  (I screwed the nut on the bottom to keep the spools secure.)
  • And here is the finished product!
  • It's as pretty as it is neat and efficient.
  • If you'd like to learn more, including where to buy the lids, check out my post at: http://www.acasarella.net/2013/03/mason-jar-twine-holders.html. 3

A fun way to organize your craft room!

Learn to make these cute mason jar twine holders. It's a great way to organize your craft room using items you already have (plus a few extras from the hardware store). ...»

Update: I would like to address the two biggest questions I've received regarding this project:

Question #1. Where did I get the daisy lids? I have included three links on my blog where you can purchase them. One link takes you to gold ones, one takes you to silver ones, and another takes you to a link selling the lids with the jars. http://www.acasarella.net/2013/03/mason-jar-...

Question #2. Does the thread get tangled as you pull different strands through? So far the answer is no. And by "no" I mean that you can keep pulling strands through the lid and they all come out smoothly and uninterrupted. They do, however, seem to get twisted around one another. The twisting does not seem to be an impediment, though, as the strands still come through the holes just fine.

I don't know if this is because of the washers I put between each spool or if there's some other reason it's working for me, but I have almost completely unraveled a few of the spools in order to test it out. I hope it works as well for all of you!
