    I love your attitude on purging things you no longer like and know you aren't going to use. Excellent advice.

    I have to admit, I'm a little envious of your donation destination. LOL BUT, I also had to chuckle because we share some of the same process... "if I haven't used it in over a year, I probably won't so its time to part that friendship". I like that you took one section at a time and re-organized... maybe that will help me because I get over-whelmed with trying to reorganize everything at the same time and don't accomplish a whole lot. Thank you for sharing... I'll be watching this series.

    This video is timely for me as I’m in the process of doing a purge for the first time since I started scrapbooking in 1998.
    My room is bursting and I know I have to do this. I’ll watch the video again and I’m looking forward to seeing the rest of the videos in this series.
    Thank you

    Let me first say, I’m impressed that you can sit on the floor. My old body can’t do that anymore!! Lol!! Your room is already well organized, but you somehow made it look more beautiful. I love the storage options you chose. And I love how you combined decorative items in with your crafting goodies. I already think craft supplies are beautiful, but it’s a nice touch adding decor in and amongst it!! Wishing you lived closer so you could help me purge my supplies and establish my craft room! I look forward to part 2!

    Wow, your storage areas look great! It seems American Crafts could pair down what they send and their design team members would still have plenty to create with. Regardless, the receivers of your donation boxes will be very happy to have new pretty supplies to create with. Finally, Victoria, I enjoyed your dancing and funny looks. Perahps an acting career in the future???? Jeannine

    • @VictoriaMarieScraps
      @VictoriaMarieScraps  2 года назад

      You absolutely should! I've done that many times over the years. And even if it's not a full day, maybe block out a couple of hours to focus on one area of your scrapbook space - for example, paper organization or purging your die cuts. You can spread out your organization tasks over a period of time as your schedule allows!

    Great tips. I'm lucky that I'm not afraid to purge. Just bought some cube storage; it's coming end of the month. They will be a good height for me; I'm in a wheelchair so it's taken me a while to figure out a set up that makes stuff at good heights for me to access. I'm very excited to get the project finished by the end of April. I have a friend coming to help me - I just had to figure out first what I wanted and what would work for me; too many times I've let myself be influenced by what works for others.

    • @VictoriaMarieScraps
      @VictoriaMarieScraps  2 года назад

      Oh absolutely! What works for others may not work for you - especially from an accessibility standpoint.

    I'm a brutal when it comes to purging too! I really enjoy the process and actually do it 3-4 times per year. We recently moved and my craft room is much, much smaller, so I'm still trying to find the right layout of furniture, etc. I got rid of SO MUCH before I moved, but still feel like there is more to do. Loving this series.

    • @VictoriaMarieScraps
      @VictoriaMarieScraps  2 года назад

      Thanks! And I agree - letting go of stuff is so much fun! More space physically and mentally is always beneficial for creating!

      Welcome and thanks so much for watching! I am so glad that this series has inspired you and that you are exploring scrapbooking! That is wonderful. There are so many awesome products and supplies - it's easy to "curate" a pretty hefty stash! LOL!

      @@VictoriaMarieScraps That’s so true and I love it all 💖 So my collection is growing fast 🙈
      I prefer pocket page scrapbooking at the moment. But I also work on mixed media projects and 12x12 lay-outs. When I’m working on my projects I feel relaxed. I love to work with al the different products ☺️

    Wow, you were not messing around. It’s nice when companies are generous to their design teams and guest designers, but it probably makes it really easy for all the “stuff” to take over your space. Great job organizing.

    • @VictoriaMarieScraps
      @VictoriaMarieScraps  2 года назад +1

      Exactly! And it is way more stuff than one person can use. It's not to receive it but hard to manage sometimes.

  • @olivemaycards
    @olivemaycards 2 года назад +1

    I appreciate your reminders that you do this for a job, that you didn’t start out in a big space, and that organizing should be about your personal workflow and how you think and craft. I think there are a lot of “aesthetic” craft room videos and posts that don’t reflect reality for most of us. I saw one recently that had beautiful rainbows of product but that turned out to be all the extra stuff the crafter didn’t actually use! The products that she used the most were messy and seemed to be stored inconveniently, which made me sad.

    • @VictoriaMarieScraps
      @VictoriaMarieScraps  2 года назад

      Thanks so much for watching! I try to make sure that I am completely transparent about what I do and why I need this space. Of course, one doesn't need an entire room to craft, but I am aware that room tours can be a little intimidating for some viewers. My hope for all crafters is to make your space your OWN...no matter how big or small. We all need a creative oasis - even if it's just a corner in a bedroom or at the kitchen table. 😀
