Welcome back to our craft supply organization series! In Volume 2, we continue our journey to help you keep your craft space neat and functional. Whether you're organizing a small corner or an entire room, these tips will help you manage your supplies effectively and creatively.
1. Boxes, Bags, and Bins: Storage Solutions Storing craft supplies efficiently is all about finding the right containers. We prefer clear bins because they allow you to see what's inside quickly. Small bins are perfect for paper crafting supplies like stamps and dies. We recommend separating your stamps from your dies for easy access.
2. Managing Heavy Items Punches can be heavy and cumbersome. Instead of using bins, consider using flat rate boxes and a shoe rack. Label the boxes clearly for easy identification. A shoe rack can be mounted on a wall or placed between bookshelves to store and display your punches neatly.
3. Fabric Organization For fabric storage, use bins and a special folding technique that lets you stack fabrics like books. This method, used in our store, makes it easy to see and access your fabric while adding a colorful touch to your space. If storing fabric in a storage unit, cover them with plastic to protect from dust and pests.
4. Using Ziploc Bags Regular Ziploc bags, especially the 2.5-gallon and gallon sizes, are invaluable for organizing smaller supplies and keeping project pieces together. They are a great way to keep your supplies sorted within bins and boxes.
5. Creative Storage Ideas Think creatively when storing your craft supplies. Use everyday items and visit thrift stores for unique storage solutions. In our store, we used various everyday items to display supplies charmingly and efficiently. Let your creativity shine through your storage methods!
