Craft Room Reveal and Tour- March 2021- The Remodel is Complete!

- Опубликовано: 28 июл 2024
- My dream craft room is finally "done"! I mean, can a craft room really ever be done-DONE? It's pretty close. It's clean, organized, and everything I hoped it would be. The cords are managed and there is counterspace for my ScanNcut, die cutting machine, heat embossing, typewriter, and paper trimmer. There is a long display shelf to show off projects I've made or that my friends have sent me, and there are two long shelves to display my favorite rubber stamps. I have a big, beautiful window with new plants and a cat tree to keep my kitty happy (and hopefully off my desk). I put together a desk that serves all of my crafty purposes and suits my preference for standing height. It has cubbies for extra storage and I even built in marker organizers! (I'll be posting the video detailing the desk-build soon.) I have a new smart TV so I can watch RUclips videos while I craft. I have a wall vanity set-up to replace my vanity from the guest room. I finally found solutions to store my scrapbooks and my 6 x 6 and 8 x 8 paper pads. My stamps and dies all have homes in the cabinets, and my envelopes and card bases are finally organized and super accessible.
This room really is a dream come true! I spent several years saving, many months planning, and SO many hours putting together this room. If you'd like to see the whole process, I posted weekly update videos detailing many of the steps and hurdles to get to this point. I plan to post more organizational videos along with lots of card inspiration and other crafty projects, so if you like what you see, be sure to subscribe. If you're already subscribed, thank you for joining me on this journey. Sharing the whole project has been really fun (and motivating), and I've loved reading and responding to all of your comments.
I hope you were inspired to do some crafty organization or renovation and had fun dreaming about the possibilities for your own space. Until next time, go make something beautiful. (I know I will be:)
Oh my!!! When I saw your old green, red and black backed dies, you maid my heart skip!! I have many dies also from before. Before, for me, was a car accident. It took many years to heal and for me to find me again. I'm very different, but I am back crafting. To see your dies, it just made me very happy and I thank you so much for sharing!!!!
So glad you are back to crafting
WOOOOOW..AMAZING..your DREAM CAME TRUE..🙏..absolutely GORGEOUS..THANK YOU for sharing all the process of your beautiful craft room..NOW IT REALL IS YOUR HAPPY PLACE..CONGRATS 👌👌👌👌🥂🍾🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉...take care and enjoy your HAPPY PLACE...🙋🏻♀️🌻🌿🌿🌿🌿
Thank you Sun Flower:) You have shared the most wonderful comments with me and I appreciate them so very much. Have a wonderful week!
Your cat is like, the room is finally good enough for meeee!
Hehe, no kidding right?!
What a beautiful space!! I think it's always a work in progress. New products, new techniques, different interests, all impact what one uses most and therefore what one needs handiest. I think, however, that there are 2 different hobbies, collecting/organizing craft supplies and crafting.
So very true! I'm hoping to do more of the latter this year now:)
Wow all that work has turned into a beautiful room I down sized my wood stamps by removing them off the block so much easier to store. I also have nail polish racks behind my doors to store my reinkers and small bottles
Great idea! Thanks for sharing your tips:)
For my rubber stamps I have put them in a flat clear containers that are numbered and I have them stamped in a catalog that is off to the side of them so I can find the stamp I want. I got a lot of rubber stamps. I have converted over 1000 to cling mount. A friend of mine passed away and her daughter didn't want them so she thought of me instead of throwing them away.
Dawnea, I converted half of my wood mounted stamps and hate it! I have a cabinet that my friends husband made for me that holds 11x17 acrylic frames on rails. I keep a lot of wood mounted stamps in there. It works great, but unfortunately I can’t find the frames anymore. The wood mounted stamps are really classics! I love them!
I don't think I'd be able to separate the stamps from their mounts... they are all like little works of art and I wish I could have a whole wall to display them all. So fun to look at:)
Beautiful job! Lovely displays. Love the magnets, the paper organization & pre/cut/size methods and the toothbrush holder scissors keeper, great ideas, thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much! 😊 Hope it gave you some good ideas!
Great job and I agree it looks very relaxing!
It really is! Took a few days before I got out of the "what needs done now" mindset and could finally start to think about making stuff again, but I'm there:)
Awesome, You need a Crafters Companion Turn table for your Brother. Only 20.00 thru HSN. I have one and I love it. You did awesome.
I will check it out!
Your space is beautiful and organized. When we moved, I got rid of a lot of the supplies I wasn’t using and so glad that I did because when I set up my new space, there is a lot of space to grow. After a year, I really don’t miss the supplies that I purged and still have a lot of room. It’s actually very freeing since more time is spent crafting and less time is spent organizing and cleaning.
I wish I would have learned that lesson earlier, but better now than later! I think I will do another round of purging in 6 months or so and give myself even more room/less clutter.
You did a fabulous job! It can be so overwhelming until you just dive in right? Nice!
I really thought it was never going to happen, but yeah, once you start and get things in motion... it's exciting:)
Wow!!! It is amazing!! Love the Sizzix old school dies!!!
Thank you so much! Those sizzix sizzlets might outlive me 😜
Your craft room is beautiful! Enjoy crafting! Thank You
Thank you! You too!
You did an amazing job. The hours and days of hard work paid off. It is well organized and beautiful. Congrats.
Thank you so much!
Congratulations on completing your happy place! I look forward to seeing what you create.
Thank you so much!
What an amazing transformation-I love your new craft room.
Thank you! I'm really enjoying my new space:)
Nice room. I've been thinking about taking my rolling stamps off and just using them flat so they don't talk up as much room. Thanks for sharing your great room.
Thank you! That's a good idea; do you use them much?
I have been thinking for years of taking my many roller stamps off, to use flat! As they are, I just never use them.
Very awesome room.
Thank you! It came together there at the end:)
Beautiful space! Loved all of the videos leading up to this beautiful space. I would decorate the top of your ziploc container. TFS❤️
Great idea!! That would be an easy fix and won't cost a dime. Love it.
Hi Hannah, I really enjoyed your craft room tour. TFS. Have a wonderful week. 💛💛💛
Thank you so much and TFW! Hope you have a wonderful week, too!
Such a beautiful room, very inspiring. Happy crafting.
Thank you so much, Nancy! Happy crafting to you, too:)
I love your craft room
Love how organized you are 💕
Thank you, Gina!
Your space is truly a dream space! I envy the cord control and the out of sight charging at the ready when you need it. I despise the cords and it makes me crazy. There are so many tools that go unused or I won’t buy because it is inconvenient to pull them out, make room, use and put it away. When it can be out and just ready, they are used so much more. I know purging is r e a l l y hard, but as I reflect only a handful of things have I really regretted letting go. I’m sure you will have many hours of joy in your space. Thanks for the ideas for my dream space. 🤩
Thank you so much Shelly, and I hope your dream space becomes a reality for you:)
OMG I love love love your little room... Mine feels so disorganised now :D
Fabulous!!! I loved watching you go through this amazing journey. Your room is incredible. You did an unbelievable job. Thanks for sharing. Take care ❤️
Thank you so much, Sandy! I really appreciate that:)
Your room is awesome! And your heeler is very cute.
Oh thank you! They are full of energy and love:)
You have an amazing craft room! Great job and it looks like all that hard work paid off!
Thank you so much! Now that I get to craft in there almost everyday, it DEFINITELY feels worth it:)
Perfect! Just love your space. Well done!
Thanks so much! 😊
You have a beautiful craft room and Congratulations. Job well done. I like the idea of you cutting your card stock to uniform sizes and storing like sizes together in little baskets. I just came across your channel cuz I want to create an organized and functional craft room.
Thank you so much! I hope my ideas will help:)
I am excited for you! Your room is beautiful!
Thank you so much!!
Congrats on A Beautiful Craft Room Girl! Looking for ideas in process of setting my own space. I’ve had mine craft supplies in the attic for over seven years due to having my parents move in and caring for my mother 24/7. My mom passed away five months ago so setting up her bedroom
Also using her 70’s furniture that have sliding doors like barn doors for storage. Planning on painting them all white.
Those bins in the last section of the room that visually you weren’t happy with, maybe you can pick up Quick Cover Contact Paper at Dollar Tree they have Beautiful colors ones even Black and White. Just cover the fronts of them.
🤩🤩🤩
Thank you! And good luck setting up your new space. I appreciate the contact paper tip. I have some left over from some other projects; maybe something in my stash will work!
I can't believe it! There's at least one other person out there with as much craft "stuff" as I've accumulated over the years. I found this video to be very inspiring and I will be going back to look at the start to finish in your earlier videos. You obviously spent a lot of time deciding what you wanted to keep and how you wanted to keep it. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Jennifer, I think there may be a *few* of us that with massive stores of supplies. I'm so thankful I'm in the groove of using things up and making cards to spread some happiness. Thank you for your kind words and thanks for watching!
I'm going to concentrate on one or two things because I just don't have the space for multiple craft supplies. At the moment I have bead craft, paper craft, patchwork quilting, general sewing & macrame. It can get overwhelming trying to organise and store stuff. 😂🙏🤣👍
I totally agree!!! Crafters... we are so easily distracted by other shiny crafts!
So happy I found your channel. Great video xx
Thanks so much 😊
You have a beautiful space! Thank you for sharing. I got so many ideas!!
Thank you and I'm so glad!
Love your room! Especially like how you used you closet:). Great job!
Thank you so much 😊
What a gorgeous job you did with your craft room. I feel inspired! Thank you!
All of your planning and hard work really paid off--the room looks fantastic--enjoy!!
Thanks so much!
It’s absolutely beautiful. I hate it when I have to spend half my crafting time looking for something. And now you don’t everything has a home. Well done xxx
Thank you, Julie:)
Great room, happy for you!
Thank you! I've been making projects again and it's been so wonderful to have this space.
So many great ideas that I am definitely including in my new (currently being built) studio. Thank you for all of this inspiration!
You are so welcome and I'm so glad you saw things you can use:) Thanks for watching!
Amazing!! I have thoroughly enjoyed watching your room transformation!! Can't wait to see you in it and making cards and more videos!! Thanks so much for sharing the process and being so real through it all!
Thanks so much! 😊 I really appreciate that and I can't wait to get back to crafting:)
So wonderful, you did a great job and I too love the plants in the window! Now you can really let the creative juices flow- very happy for you!
Thanks so much! 😊
You are so blessed.
Yes, and I know not to take a single moment of it for granted.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much, and thanks for watching:)
All the hard worked payed off -- an amazing and bright space!
Thank you, Lynn:)
Wonderfull organized, great and well done 👏💕
Thanks so much! 😊
Beautiful space!!!! 💕
Thank you!! 😊
Amazing progress! Your hard work is paying off. ❤️
Thank you!! 😊
When you get to crafting lets see what you do with your Brother so I can get ideas. Mine has been sitting awhile.
Go to you tube and look up paper chef she is great
I agree that Paper Chef is AWESOME. Someday I think I will do some Scanncut videos!
Wow, wow, wow! I have so been waiting to see your room finished that I went back and watched the before video again. It is so amazing what you accomplished! I am so glad I found you and looking forward to future videos! Wishing you tons of joy in your new wonderful room!
Thank you so much, Lonna! It was quite a journey and I'm so glad to share it with you. I am looking forward to lots of crafting and relaxing in the room, and I'll put out more organization videos as well as project shares. Thanks again for all of the sweet comments; they are truly appreciated:)
@@MostlyPaperCrafts I was so happy to share with you the joy I had watching your awesome makeover. You are very welcome! 🥰
This has been so enjoyable to watch. Love the orientation of your desk. Beautiful job.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed and thank you for watching:)
Congratulations on your room, you worked so hard on it. 🙂
Thank you!! 😊
I love it! It is both beautiful and functional! Congratulations on a job very well done!
Thanks so much! 😊
What a big beautiful room! I’m currently setting up my craft room and it just so much stuff! You did a great job!
Thank you! Good luck with yours, and I definitely feel the "so much stuff". I purged a lot but need to give it another round in 6 months or so. They say that less is more, but I wish I could have really taken that to heart from the beginning.
You have done an amazing job with your new craft room I have followed your whole project thank you for sharing 🥰🇨🇦
Thanks so much and thanks for watching! 😊
Your room is beautiful. I so enjoyed following you through your journey. It was fun!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that:)
Beautiful space! Loved the kitty cameo! 💕
Hehe, Thank you! 😊
This is one of the nicest dream craft rooms I have seen! You have created a really beautiful craft room with cost effective storage solutions. I am definitely using some of your ideas. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you so much! Happy to help:)
Awesome!
Thanks!
Your room is perfect!
Thank you! It really does feel like my own little slice of heaven:)
Beautiful ❤️
Thank you! 😊
I've been watching the progress and am so happy for you having such a great space to create. It turned out beautiful. I had to chuckle because I didn't think you would be able to keep the old desk! It's crucial to have a nice desk surface when you spend so much time working there. Enjoy!
LOL that's so great that you called it. I wanted to be okay with the desk, but... yeah... it didn't feel right.
Great job!
Thanks Vicki!
Well done!
Thank you!!!
Your room looks wonderful, the hard work you put into this was definitely worth it. I love the long narrow shelves you have used for your favourite wood mounted stamps, decorative but they take up so little room also the LED lighting, very clever.
Thank you for sharing and I hope you have many happy hours of crafting ahead.
Thank you so much and thanks for watching:) Can't wait to get back to crafting and maybe relax a bit.
Oh my gosh, I love, love, love your craft room!!! It is just beautiful and so well organized. I'm sure you will have many happy crafting hours in there. I know you had some struggles along the way, but you have done an amazing job. So very happy for you. Thank you for sharing. P.S. Your kitty seems to approve of your desk and his window seat.
Thank you so much, Carole:) I'm so thankful to be back to crafting now. And, yes, all of the pets are getting VERY cozy in there lol. Especially the cat, who still fancies my desk over his window lounge 🤣
Love your craft room! You could always spray paint your bins so they are all the same color….
Thank you, Debra. I think that's a great idea!
Wonderful job! Only concern is card stock light exposure (even the low light) might cause discoloring over time! Maybe some frosted plexiglass or something similar! Blessed and safe days!
Great point! I will definitely consider this:)
Love your space it lovely ..my space is my dining room..little wall space..you will definitely be creative in that space..congrats
Thank you so much 😊
Good morning! My space has been in limbo for MONTHS. As I lay in bed this morning I was thinking about what I need to do to finish the process. Your video inspired me to get the space finsihed! Thank you. New subscriber. Creative Blessings in that beautiful new space.
Thank you for your kind words and I hope that you are able to complete your space soon, too!
Love your room! I had tons of wood block stamps and I purged the ones I knew I wouldnt use then the rest I turned into cling it takes up 1/4 of the space. Just an idea for you love. You can find you tub videos showing you how to do it😁
Thanks for the idea!
I love this
Thanks, Vanessa:)
Amazing!! And you are right, your room will never be “done”. It constantly changes with different organization ideas you come up with. I’m curious about your scrapbook planners. Can you do a video on them?
Thank you! Yes, I will definitely do a video on the scrapbook planners in the next couple of months. They are SO fun to work on. I used to do 12x12, but they take a LOT of time and take up a LOT of space. These yearly planner albums are a lot more casual, but super fun and filled with stickers, washi, decorative papers, photos, etc. It's addictive.
This is lovely and beautiful. I love those plants. Awesome job. New here
Thank you and welcome:)
I just found your channel! I love your room!! and gosh... I can't part with my sizzle alphabets either!!!
Glad you're here, Katie. Those old school dies are going to outlive us all:)
I saved my old Sizzix alphabets and I still use them. I don’t use my small picture cutting dies much but every once in awhile.........
Yup, and you never know when :)
Wow you have such a lot of things,, I sorted out a while ago and set my grand daughter up with a lot. I still have quite a bit but not as much as you have x
Admittedly, it's a bit TOO much 🤣
Happy crafting!
beautiful
Thank you! 😊
Lovely craft room. New sub. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for subbing! Hope you'll find some useful stuff here:)
Your craft room looks awesome. You mentioned in the video that you use a book to keep track of the stamps you have. Would you mind sharing how you do that? Thanks for showing us your room.
Hi Dawn, yes, I did make a Stamping Catalogue video (thanks for linking it, Lisa:). It's one of my favorite things to flip through because I can see all of my images in one place. Great way to get inspired when I'm working on cards.
wow. i must say you have done some amazing organizing there. i love everything to do with craft. i would do a lot of it as a kid but looking at your craft room it makes me wanna start again. the room turned out amazing! kudos. 😍new sub!
Thank you so much! And thanks for subscribing:)
Wow, this is so amazing! Thank you for sharing this! 💙😊
XOXO Celine from List Perfectly
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it:)
New subbie, you did an amazing incredible job. I wish I was capable of completely such an enormous task. My craft is sitting there, with all my craft supplies on the floor. Maybe someday. ENJOY 🌸🌷🌸🌷
Thank you! And I'm sure that when the time is right, you will get your things organized the way you want them. Just don't make the mistake that so many crafters do and spend more time organizing than creating (unless that's what you like to do!)
Thanks for the video. Your craft room is beautiful. Can you do a video on your Brothers Scan and Cut?
I think that is a great idea! I'll put it on my list:) It's such a fun machine.
Excited for you! Now go make something :)
That's the plan! 😊😜
Beautiful job on a beautiful craft room!!
Thanks so much for sharing! Can you share how you know what stamps are in each manufacturer’s box when you want to make say a Thank you, Sympathy, Get well etc? My stash is overwhelming but I love it all!! Can sanity be made? You are great
Hi Debbie! Thanks for the comment, and so sorry for the delayed response. My solution is using an app called Air Table. It's basically a fancy spreadsheet, but I type in all of my sentiments and the images for each stamp set (and for dies) and it is very easy for me to search for what I need. I use it on my phone and on my computer. I hope this helps!
Awesome craftroom tfs.🙂 new SUBSCRIBER.
Thanks so much! 😊
What a great job! Love your room! Where did you get your mini cat vacuum? It's adorable! I am a cat lover too and know other friends that are also. That would be a great gift!
Hi! I bought it at Tuesday Morning a couple of years ago; I am pretty sure they have this one or something like it on Amazon.
What pockets do you use for your stamps and dies? I love your craft room.
Love your craft space… I wish I was this organized, I have a ton of work to do to get close to where you are!!
Question, what are the cups you organized the markers in?? I really like this way of setting up markers… but don’t know what the cups are or where to get them!?
So many cool ideas, I will be working on implementing a number of them! Thank you!! Marcella from PA.
Hi Marcella, here is the link for the cups: www.amazon.com/Marbrasse-Desk-Organizer-Stationery-Translucent/dp/B07Z3DZTQW/
They are holding up really well. I was pleased how well they fit in the cubby!
Love the tour!
Wondering what sidekick is used for ?
Thanks, Tiffany! It's a small die-cutting machine. I have a bigger machine on the counter, but I like having the little one on my desk for small, quick cut jobs.
Love ur space very well organized. WhT kind of cups are ur markers in
Hi Martha, thanks so much! If you want more details about the desk, I did a whole video about how I built it. Here is the link for the cups: www.amazon.com/dp/B07Z3DZTQW/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_MHYR486NRQGDJTJJGGQQ
If you want organizers on your desk that your lovely cat can’t knock off, just put some earthquake putty or plastic-tax underneath.
Brenda, that's brilliant!
I may have missed it, but who are your upper cabinets by? I am looking at cabinets as we speak and wonder if its one of the ones I am researching....great to see them in use/progress and how things fit in them :) lovely room!!!
Hi Lisa! The cabinets are from Lowes. I had wanted IKEA cabinets (to match what I have in my kitchen), but they were all sold out and I did not want to wait.
Love, love your space! Can you share where you got the cups for your pens?
Hi Michelle! They are from Amazon. Here's the link: www.amazon.com/Marbrasse-Desk-Organizer-Stationery-Translucent/dp/B07Z3DZTQW/ref=sr_1_12?dchild=1&keywords=pencil+cup+plastic&qid=1618272181&sr=8-12
@@MostlyPaperCrafts Thank you!! I love your space! One day...
How did you attach your magnet sheets inside your cabinet doors & where did you get the magnet sheets? Fantastic idea!
Hi Bonnie! The sheets I used have adhesive backing. There are several brands of the 8 x10 size at about the same price on Amazon (less than $15 for ten). The ones I used have been out of stock for a while:/
@@MostlyPaperCrafts Thank you!
I love your room! It is so organized and looks great. Where did you get the gray and white striped bins in the closet area?
Thank you! The cubbies and baskets, including the striped ones, are all from Target:)
@@MostlyPaperCrafts Thank you!
I have many many wood mounted rubber stamps too and had to laugh at your comment about not counting all the ones you gave away because I would be the same way. Did you sell the rubber stamps you got rid of or did you donate them? Your remodeled craft room looks like a dream. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Jeanne... so my dirty little secret is that I haven't gotten rid of them yet. The boxes are in my garage and I'm still trying to decide what to do. I think I may make sets of coordinating stamps this summer and see if I can sell some of them to recoup some of my spending for this project 😜
Can you make your post cards collection video? Im also collecting them but i dont have a lot of them
Good idea! I'll put it on the list:)
