😂😂😂 You were cracking me up!!! You are so cute. When you were saying you moved your camera mount so it didn’t crack you in the head and get a concussion. I was laughing so hard, probably because that would happen to me!!! Very fun video. Just subscribed. Thanks fo making me laugh. Take care ❤️
Laurel! this is a video I've been trying to find! Thank you for sharing. I have been staying with one of my daughters and her fam for 2 years and she gifted me the 25 cubbie unit I had in my room to put things in. I love having it. They moved more east than I wanted to, so I am temporarily staying with my oldest daughter then moving in with my middle daughter when they get in February. I make lots of cards for myself and whomever wants them in my area, (church ladies, friends, family, senior living facilities). I don't know much about Ikea but maybe in the next week or so I can talk my daughter into taking me so I can get some of the items you showed and explained. This video is just what I needed!
OMG Laurel....seriously, your craft room is absolutely STUNNING! So well organized, clean and fresh looking! I thought turning the top shelf of the raskog upside down to use a work surface was awesome! And that window....I could go on and on! I picked up 3 incredibly useful tips! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing studio! I absolutely love it....can you tell LOL!
Hey Laurel....QUESTION: Regarding the Cutterpillar, is the light board for underneath the glass mat? Excuse my ignorance but I don't know anything about light boards but my problem is, as I'm an older crafter I have frustrations when trying to see what I'm doing when crafting, especially if working with adding intricate pieces or coloring intricate designs. Do you think the light board would help me see better when working on a project, assuming it goes underneath the glass mat? Thanks again Laurel
Great idea to flip the ikea bin upside down on the Raskog. Personally, I'd rather have a topper so I could use the storage, too, but I would have never thought to do this.
I just found you! Loved this video. I also appreciated the time frame you kept it to.... I am a wife, mother, homemaker, crafter, hold a part time job as well as volunteer each week. I find that your upbeat, informative and friendly video was perfect for me! Can't wait to see more.
You had some great ideas here! Love your workspace and can't help but admit that I'm coveting it too! I love how you had small space and utilized it so effectively and efficiently. Good job and thanks for sharing. ❤
Great video! I always enjoy seeing how others store all their "stuff". I have my dies on magnet cards in a box, and I really like how you have them out in the open. I might need to tag that idea for my next house. If I had space for the Alex units, I would have them tomorrow!
Hi there Laurel. I am taking a creative break and saw your tutorial on "organization" instruction. The word "organize" makes me cringe because I need to do a craft room destash and cleanup soon. Watching videos with other friends organizing is so stress-free for me. Great inspiration for those like me who want to do" it" it as in "organize", but always find something else to do instead. I love to "destash" because I never get rid of anything so it is a quick project for me to accomplish. haha I enjoyed your tour. Isn't it great to watch each other's craft room organizing methods? We all have similar basic supplies, but we just have different hiding places for them. teehee I am enjoying a snowstorm while I see how organized you are. Toodles from Ontario Laurel. Great tute!!!
I've been on a creative break for months. I"m going to go back thru my room and purge some more. re-organize, maybe decorate here and there and see if my mojo returns!
Awesome tips, Laurel, & I love how organized your craft space is! A cheaper source for magnet sheets is Home Depot. (Your favorite place, I know! LOL) I get magnetic vent covers there--in the section with the metal vents & air filters--and cut them down. I can get (9) 5x7.75" sheets out of one package of 3 vent covers. I do store my dies in storage pockets, so I just adhere the magnet sheets to cheap cardstock (cut slightly wider) with Scor Tape, and stick my dies to those in the pockets. Works great for me! The important thing is NOT to use liquid glue to adhere the magnet sheets to the cardstock. Even after the glue dries, the moisture oozes through the sheet and forms a film on the surface that can rust your dies. Ask me how I know! :P Anyway, thanks for this video, Laurel! Take care, and have a wonderful day! :)
I love the nail polish holder! Your Nuvo drops looks so pretty in it! Thanks for sharing your tried & true tips with us! I know they're going to be helpful to lots of us.
Great video. I am waiting for a delivery from Ikea (hopefully in two weeks) of all new furniture for my craft room. It is quite small (only 9' x 9' 8") so good organization is paramount. There were lots of good ideas in this video and I'm so glad that I found it. Unfortunately, the items from OrganizeMore have quite long lead times. I think I'll need to make a trip to Ikea to pick up organizational items for my drawers. Thank you for sharing.
Loved your organizational thinking. I have been looking at Ikeas furniture and really love how everything we crafters have can fit well somewhere. 30 years ago I used just a small square of glass because it is so good to work on then replaced it with a self healing mat. All good but I’m delighted the glass mats are available now but much larger and safer. Thanks for the tour and enjoyed looking at such a clean room. Doesn’t happen often I know but it is so delightful to see.
Instead of flipping the top shelf of the cart upside down, you could cut a piece of pressboard to fit the top instead. This way you could use the inside as storage, plus not lose the extra space below it for the 2nd shelf (where the lip of the shelf would hang down if upside down). I like the nail polish storage idea! I may have to get some!
Hi Laurel! I just found your channel and subscribed! Love your video! I'm moving into a new house soon, and I'll have my own scrapbook room for the first time, so I'm looking for lots of ideas!
Love how you store your dies...need to make one next to my peg board wall...why don't you do black and white stripes on you magnets and then just separate by company on the stripes 😉
I use those pouches too, love them Not sure if you said but if anyone is interested they are from Dollar Tree. My friend has here dies on a magnetic sheet, she likes it better cuz she can see all her dies. Very nice craft room!
Thank you Laurel for sharing all these fantastic tips. I really like your craft room, if it was mine I'd never leave it! Thanks again, I have to go now because for some strange reason I have the urge to go hunt down zipper ! lol
Love the changes you've made since your last video tour! Got the glass mat per your recommend, & it's just what I'd been needing, thank you. Re knowing who made which die, you could take a photo of your die board, print it out, number them on the photo, & make a code list to attach/keep near. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing, & have a great day. :o)
Thank you for sharing your wonderful space. You have some really good hints for storage. Just an FYI; I have the similar cart from Michael’s. I bought the extra piece that fits over the top bin in that cart which makes a flat surface. That way I don’t have to lose a bin. I wonder if it would fit your cart?
@@LaurelBeard It's the Lexington cart topper. The Lexington is Michael's version of the Raskog. You can find the topper there: www.michaels.com/white-lexington-cart-topper-by-recollections/10559456.html. Cost about $10, & I think also comes in a natural wood finish, in addition to the white. HTH! :)
Simply Cardmaking with Laurel Beard the Michael’s top doesn’t fit perfectly in the Raskog. It’s great for the Michael’s cart, though. Just an FYI. Hi. My name is Melissa and I have a Raskog problem.
I was just watching a video from last year (challenge to make a card with only what was on your desk). I noticed a storage tower on the right side that I think would be amazing in my space. It wasn’t in the product list for that video. I would love to know where you found it. Thanks so much for your helpful ideas.
Quick question--the die cutting organizer -- (I am going to Ikea tomorrow---which is not far away from saying I am climbing Mt. Everest--Basecamp 1 is Housewares!) --are the magnetic sheets adhesive back--or just magnetic--therefore they stick to that Ikea item?
Thank you for sharing your craft room ideas. One thing you may want to change: don't leave brushes soaking in water - it will ruin them. It not only bends the bristles, but also loosens the ferrule adhesive, and may ruin the handle if it's wood (possibly growing mold or bacteria). I never leave brushes in water, even while painting. I lie them flat on my work surface. I also leave them flat to dry (I use The Masters brush cleaner to clean them, leaving some in the brush to hold their shape in storage). Still-standing water will grow bacteria as well. It's best to use fresh water (I use 2 glasses, short clear ones that I bought at the dollar store: one for rinse water and one for clean mixing).
Some great storage ideas. As for your Raskog cart you can get a cover for the top basket & that way you could store something and have a work surface. They have them on Etsy but I believe I saw them somewhere else just can't remember where. However, you have a handy husband. Maybe he'd be able to make one. :)
@@LaurelBeard Our Gray Barn has something for $20.00 & the other one is Carriage Woodworks. On Etsy. Maybe your husband could look at that & make one. Good luck.
I love your organization style. It's somewhat what I think will work for me. I have a question about the IKEA pegboard you have mounted to your window. How is is mounted?
It's driving me nuts trying to sort stuff, what to put where in my new craft-a-van it's a static caravan/mobile home depending on which side of the pond you are! There is three rooms with a kitchen inbetween. We have taken the doors off so that it flows aasy. I'm getting their but am sure it will end up changing round as I get to using things. I'm making some containers for things as I can't afford to buy anymore!! You're looks great, what do you call that thing you did your iPhone to for filming, thinks that's what I need next! Hugs x Ann x
Thank you for sharing your ideas. Very practical and helpful. What brand of stamping ink pads did you have stored in your drawers? I am looking to purchase new and smaller sized pads.
New subbie here. Great video and such awesome ideas. I too love see through zipper pouches. Hee hee. Love ur space. So inviting. Also love fuzzy socks. I'm in New Jersey and it gets so cold. Bbbrrrrr lol. Tfs big xoxoxo's
Roberta S Thank you for replying so quickly, you have just answered a big problem for me, I am buying two, the desk and pole lamp and they are already in my cart on Amazon! Ally
Loved your organization ideas and will definitely be using some of them. What size is your peg board from home depot? did your husband finish it in anyway or did you use as is? Thank you
Wow, looks wonderful!!! What do you do with all your stamps, do you sell them or give them away? I have WAY too many stamp sets!!! It’s definitely an addiction!!!
I do mystery boxes for charity! Once I get enough to purge, I put an announcement on my blog and "sell" boxes of different sizes and prices... 50% of the proceeds are donated to a charity I support.
I heard from some other video, can't remember what one, that storing distress inks on their sides would cause all the ink on the pad to pool on the bottom side and eventually start ozzing out. Have u had any problems like that?
Laurel - how do you like that chair? I’ve been considering it for a few months as I love the Container Store. Did you make the die holders yourself? I think that is a great idea!
I do like the chair. It's comfortable. It was more than I wanted to spend but if you look around, you can find a coupon. I think I found a $25 off coupon! The die holders? Yep. It's a magnetic frame from ikea, some magnetic sheets from Ellen Hutson and the dies! :) Thanks so much!
I love my Alex drawers, I will say I have stored wooden stamps in mine before and overloaded it to the point that the bottom of the drawer bowed.. They are great, but I will say be careful of the weight you put in them..
Sherry Utah www.amazon.com/Vinyl-Mesh-Zipper-color-vary/dp/B000HFUEFY Bummed to say that Dollar Tree had these for $1...I should have bought s boatload of them.
These are cheaper same pouch. www.containerstore.com/s/office/paper-file-storage/expanding-files-pouches/zippered-vinyl-mesh-pouches/123d?productId=10005003
New friend here ... thank you for sharing your organisational ideas... really enjoyed. I’m in the uk so need to have a gander to see if we have similar over here. TFS and for the inspiration 👍❤️🤗❣️
Hi there! Great video, really enjoyed it and got some great tips! Here's one back - in Sweden, IKEA now has a cutting board that is made for the Råskog cart. It's called Högsma but I'm not sure you can get it in the US. Here's a link to it on the UK website: www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/hoegsma-chopping-board-bamboo-90446619/
I wish you would record at a higher volume. My volume is maxed out & I can barely hear anything you're saying. Please keep in mind when you are recording that not everyone hears as well as others. If you record a higher volume those that can hear well can turn their sound down, however those of us that don't hear as well we are limited as to how far we can turn the volume up. Sadly, you could very likely be missing a lot of viewers because we cannot hear what you're saying. Just some food for thought. Have a blessed day.

Thank you for sharing your ideas. Very practical and helpful. What brand of stamping ink pads did you have stored in your drawers? I am looking to purchase new and smaller sized pads.
In my drawers were the distress oxides and distress inks. I use Catherine Pooler inks also....
Where can you buy the hot and cool blower
Awe, you are talking about the heat tool! It's by Wow and you can grab one here: ldli.co/e/657py6

Good idea for die storage! Do you store all your dies on the magnetic board or only your word dies? Thank you!
Mostly just for word dies. My shape dies and such I don't have any many of so I store them in storage pockets.
I am having trouble with lighting on my desk, I noticed you have a lamp on each side, are they floor lamps and what type? TVs, love your videos.
Allyson Lane the Daylight led lamps by Daylight may be what you need.

Hi! I use these from Amazon! Inexpensive and work great! amzn.to/2IP4RDL
Simply Cardmaking with Laurel Beard Thanks for the tip, much less expensive too!
Allyson Lane you are welcome. I like lights that are similar to outdoor light & don’t flicker or flutter like florescent lights do.
Gads! Your work space is so neat. As in clean. Do you really use it? Mine is organized but still has stuff out. Nice video.
LOL! My desk usually has stuff thrown all over it, but everything else usually is tidy... That's why I have drawers. I can throw stuff in it! :)

Where do you get those mesh zipper pouches?
Where do you store your stamps?
I store my stamps in fridge binz (amazon).....

Laurel - how do you like that chair? I’ve been considering it for a few months as I love the Container Store.
Did you make the die holders yourself? I think that is a great idea!
I do like the chair. It's comfortable. It was more than I wanted to spend but if you look around, you can find a coupon. I think I found a $25 off coupon! The die holders? Yep. It's a magnetic frame from ikea, some magnetic sheets from Ellen Hutson and the dies! :) Thanks so much!
Love your craft room organization. Where did you get the lamps on and beside your desk?
Thank you! Here is a link! Only $37 - amzn.to/2IP4RDL
We are getting an IKEA next month. The closet right now is 3 hours away. I've been eying the alex cabinets for a while.
I love my Alex drawers, I will say I have stored wooden stamps in mine before and overloaded it to the point that the bottom of the drawer bowed.. They are great, but I will say be careful of the weight you put in them..
Is that black paper trimmer still available to buy somewhere? Thank you for all the tips.
It sure is! amzn.to/2VwxLtW
Simply Cardmaking with Laurel Beard thank you 😘

New friend here ... thank you for sharing your organisational ideas... really enjoyed. I’m in the uk so need to have a gander to see if we have similar over here. TFS and for the inspiration 👍❤️🤗❣️
Where do you get the mesh zippered pouches?
Found them! Loved the ideas. Thank you.
Yay! I linked to them in the supply list in the description!
Did I miss where you store stamps?
No you didn't. I didn't show that part! I store them in Fridge bins categorized by themes. amzn.to/2UnG4Z6
where did you get that desk mount?
It's from Arkon. www.arkon.com/product/CLAMPRV29-clamp-phone-camera-mount-stand.html
Hi there! Great video, really enjoyed it and got some great tips! Here's one back - in Sweden, IKEA now has a cutting board that is made for the Råskog cart. It's called Högsma but I'm not sure you can get it in the US. Here's a link to it on the UK website: www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/hoegsma-chopping-board-bamboo-90446619/
I wish you would record at a higher volume. My volume is maxed out & I can barely hear anything you're saying. Please keep in mind when you are recording that not everyone hears as well as others. If you record a higher volume those that can hear well can turn their sound down, however those of us that don't hear as well we are limited as to how far we can turn the volume up. Sadly, you could very likely be missing a lot of viewers because we cannot hear what you're saying. Just some food for thought. Have a blessed day.
This is an older video. My audio has improved since then. apologies.
