A Tour of My Craft Shed...While It's Organized!

My girl's playhouse has now graduated to my craft shed. This is where I organize and store all of my crafting potential! I didn't want to buy any organizers, so I had to get creative with how to use the things I already had to create organization!

It is busting at the seams with crafting potential! And the good thing is...I can see all of it now!

An old baker's rack with baskets houses all of my wreath making supplies.

This ladder now is the home for all of my ribbons. I even added a nail to the side of the ladder so that I could easily find my scissors.

Baskets and dishes group like items such as upholstery tacks and pickets.

Glass vases in the window sills hold rocks, marbles, spools and dominos.

Shelves with pegs can hold countless items!

This craft shed is a joy to work in! Now if I can just keep it this organized...

10 Tips From My Craft Room To Yours

These may not be "new-to-you" tips but I thought I would share how I organized my craft room at the beginning of this year. It made working more productive and more enjoyable because the room was organized and easy to use. I am hoping this will be a "share" and "share alike" post, with people commenting on their favorite tips on crafting, as well as, craft rooms. I am always on the hunt for new and better ideas, so let's hear them! Just some full disclosure... this is a sun room in rental that I am using as a craft room. (It has more issues than VOGUE.) When we move, I am sure my craft room will be the dining room again and that is just fine because we NEVER use the dining room except to do puzzles. I can craft anywhere and I think one of my kid's friends once said, "Dude, every room is your mom's craft room! LOL" SO TRUE, SO TRUE!

Wallpaper Comeback No Intimidation!

I’m not sure about you but I have always been intimidated about wallpaper. I consider myself an avid remodeler been doing this since the 80s. So I was not sure if it was hard to do it was just scary to lineup the textures and such. So when my daughter asked me to help her with her-so teeny little bathroom of course I agreed but I was still a little intimidated.

How to Repurpose Oats Container

I have used oats containers to store a lot of things but the problem is when I want one item, I have to dump the whole container to look for that one item. So, I decided to repurpose the oats container into a container with containers inside(you get it, right? ;)) so that it is easy to organize and sort things inside. Let's see how.

Dental Floss Sewing Kit Hack

Who hasn't had a button pop at an inopportune time? Over the weekend when my own button popped I then had to search for the scissors, thread and sewing needle which were scattered around my craft studio. That night, I finished off a container of dental floss and had an epiphany: what if I made a portable sewing kit using the empty container? It already had a built in 'thread' cutter and I could store thread and a needle all in one convenient spot! First I peeled off the lable from the face of the container.

Multitasking DIY: One Peg Board - Thousands of Possibilities

I have the ultimate musthave multitasking home DIY for you today (because it's very easy to make and mega manifold), you'll want to have it, too! I'm probably not the first one to make such a peg board and it's possible that you find a board with ready-made holes in the building supplies store, but I had fun making this one myself and was surprised to see how many possibilities it offers - and it's quite cheap and very easy to make (I would presume even somebody with two left hands would be able to do it). It took me much longer to style and put the board in scene, make photos and edit them, than it took me to make it (including drying time for the layers of paint)! My DIY is a magnetic storage, organization and deco board made of wood, which can be used with / without wooden pegs. There are thousands of possibilities and the nicest thing is that you can use it in every room of the house. "Pure" it's like an object of art. Find even more photos and ideas on my blog!

There are times when you need storage that is inexpensive and functional, yet you want it to be stylish.

Most kid crafts aren't exactly gorgeous, ya know.

Storage Solution for an Awkward Entryway

I’ve been searching for a storage solution for our entryway. It had to be shallow enough that it wouldn’t be obtrusive and block the stairs or make the space feel even more cramped than it already was. I found this cute little antique maple secretaries desk at “Lisa’s Upscale Garage Sale” for $65 and it was pretty close to being the perfect size! But it has some issues and was not very attractive! So this is how I transformed it into a cute little storage cabinet just in time for the scarves & mittens & hats (Oh my) season!

Built in Pantry Organization

The home we moved into had wire racks in the pantry which made it difficult to store items. Also, one of the shelves was missing and that made for a lot of unused space. We decided to update our pantry to make it more user friendly and give us more storage.
