Craft Room Organizational Woes
Follow along for the adventures of turning a 2 car garage into my craft room. The start is slow but sure to be adventurous. I’m just scratching the surface. We moved in January. Now, it’s 6 months later and my craft room will hopefully be the next part of the moving in adventure since it isn’t unpacked yet. I’m having withdrawals from embroidery, crafting & wreath-making. I have this creative itch but I can’t really scratch it. I am making a list of the things I want to make. It’s very long as you can imagine. Here are some pics of my mountain of boxes. Hopefully, I can begin this week to make a dent in this room.
My fave shelves with a start to unpacking.
Yes, those boxes are about 6′ tall.
Someday there will be a wall with windows and a French door.
My tiny area where I can work if I clean it up the mess.
This was open but we had some wiring in the attic. Had to shove stuff in my work area.
I do have some sturdy shelves set up along one wall. They are the ones that I will be using for my large blanks and bins. I have 3 of the 5-tier shelves and one of the corner shelves. I dearly love them. They are adjustable and are available via Amazon Prime [aff link]. I’ve had them for years & years and they look brand spanking new.
These shelves are an incredible help to get things up off the floor so I can see what I want. I use clear tubs when I can. Some tubs will have to be changed out to clear or labeled. I’m hoping for a nice cohesive but clean look when I am done. I don’t like a lot of open shelves. It overwhelms me. I’d rather label & go search than see all of it.
Stay tuned as I somehow make this space user friendly and make the best possible use of this space. Thanks for dropping by!
