    Thank you so much for this video.. I have made so many storage trays, general, watercolour and polychromos pencils, A4 filing trays, a nail bar and still have more in the planning. Brilliant video, Thank you again

    The ones in the shops don’t even come close to be half as nice as yours.
    OMG…….
    I will make mine to fit the length of my desk. Maybe in two sections and place side by side.
    This is going to be a fun project to use up some of those " bits & pieces " that seem to ALWAYS be left over!

    Oh, Sam, I L O V E your tenacity (!!), of which I have bloody little! However, Iike you, I SO need compartmented storage, so I took a “chip board” (pretty much your “gray board”) desk organizer I found at a U.S. discounter (Tuesday Morning), and added M A N Y small boxes to subdivide the compartments that were already there. I’ve used rectanglar ones; the square ones from the Vick’s VapoRub product and makeup boxes; I’ve even wrapped bathroom tissue paper tubes in printer paper and fit them to the task, which, in truth, gives a few more tiny spots to put oft-used slim items that might otherwise get lost among “the many” slim items. Thank you, Sam, for this vid as well as your many others. They are a treat! P.S: I SOOO much prefer this style compared to the lazy-susan kind.

  • @RosieCarl
    @RosieCarl 2 года назад +3

    This is fantastic. A question though... wouldn't it be easier to cover the chipboard before you cut all the pieces and just leave the edges bare for gluing? Or would that make it harder to glue everything together? Thank you for sharing... it seems beautifully engineered for its purpose.

      She added reinforcement paper and then painted it as a base of white behind the patterned paper. So, no, that wouldn’t really work.

  • @carolekinsey7835
    @carolekinsey7835 2 года назад

    Thats such a great idea for all our bits and bobs Sam. Something i could really do with too. I can never find anything, because our house Gremlins disappear things, right in front of my eyes. 😆
    If i had something like this, things i use would have a spot to go. No more saying, 'now where did i put that'...i know I'm not the only one doing that. 🤪
    I really liked the papers you used. The colours were lovely, especially with the added sparkle. Hehe, i love a bit of sparkle.
    Its a lovely project to do.
    Thank you as always Sam. Xxx

      @kkrolf2782 Год назад

      Hey Girl … did you give it a go? I’m always so short on crafting time, I’ve made do with a box to which I’ve added many smaller boxes to maintain the kind of organization Sam’s made in her dandy project. I’ve even used bathroom tissue rolls, as even the tiny spaces between those have allowed separate “compartments” for my oft-needed slim items (a fav pencil, my die pick, etc.). Enjoy your new year, Karen, whichever direction you take!

      If you’re into recycling, you might also consider cereal boxes. They can be layered up to be more substantial. Also, the “economy size” ones from costco are beefier and a bit larger than grocery store ones.

    This is something I'm going to make. I have 2 "twirl around" things, several small drawers, and a few bins that hold those things that I either use the most or keep forgetting to use. Having a "one-stop" storage bin would make my cards so much easier to put together. I'll have to adjust the sizes of some of the slots because I really want to fit in most of my various tapes, but that just makes it my own. Thank you so much for showing how to make this in such good detail.
    I wish you a very Happy New Year and may 2022 be a much better year than the last two have been for us all! 😃 ✨✨✨

      @kkrolf2782 Год назад

      I, too, was thinking of ways to adapt this design. My “tool tote” has to be able to be stashed away (I craft in my kitchen), but it does need to hold pretty much everything Sam was showing us. My thought was to make TWO SHORTER ones, connected with a HINGE on one end, so it could open as far as Sam’s. To accommodate moving it into storage and back, I’d make the back-most pieces taller with a handle hole to make toting it easier. Just have to get my ambition back after recent “punies”.

    • @kkrolf2782
      @kkrolf2782 Год назад

      I have the same issues! You C O U L D use an already made box from one of our “discounter” stores (found my at Tuesday Morning), or maybe an IKEA box? Then, using boxes from dry food boxes (rice, graham crax, cereal, …) or even frozen food from costco or sam’s club, which are s u b s t a n t i a l (!), or boxes from makeup or meds, e v e n bathroom tissue rolls! Cover ‘em with pretty paper and line them up in the bigger box. Is it as elegant as Sam’s? M A Y B E not, but it M A Y be just the thing to alleviate the “gotta find it” frustration!!
