Yes!
My Craft Room will be clean and ready to be shown tomorrow.
You don’t even know what a mess this place was a couple of days ago.
I’m not sure what I was thinking when I started to organize every single corner of this room.
It got pretty messy pretty fast!
I pulled out every single item out of boxes, closet and drawers.
We can fairly say that I have spent these last five days doing some Spring cleaning in the month of October.
I am exhausted but happy to say that it is all done!
In the middle of all the mess last week I received a box full of awesome wood beads and supplies by Lara’s Crafts
from my good friends over at DecoArt.
I knew I had to put them away fast before my girl would take care of them for me.
I’m telling you it is never a good idea to mix my Mimi and my craft supplies.
This girl knows how to make them disappear way too fast!
For me it is always hard to organize small items, especially when they are similar but different sizes.
I like to use jars to keep them all organized.
This gives me the chance to see what I am looking for right away.
This time however I still had the problem of remembering in the future
the size of the beads and some other of the craft supplies.
So this time I had the idea of using the info from the packages to make tags.
The first things I did was cut the basic information.
This way when I make a project with them I can tell you exactly what type of item I used.
So cool!
After the info was cut I punched a hole in each tag.
Then I used Bakers Twine to keep them together according to the content of each jar.
I tied them around the jar giving me a clear way to see not just the supplies
but their own information.
How do you like me using my kitchen hammer?
Mercy!
It wasn’t until a few hours ago that I found my craft hammer under a pile of fabric.
I need a vacation!
Anyways, I love this idea so much that it became addictive and before I knew
I had all my jars full, with clear descriptions and ready to use.
AWESOME!
I’ll be back tomorrow with my reorganized Craft Room.
I think you’ll be happy to know that I listened to you my wonderful readers and
the polka dot wall is still untouched and as happy and bright as ever.
Make sure to come back tomorrow and link up your projects
over at the party. If you are a night owl you may want to stop at 12:30 am when the party will open!
Thank YOU for visiting!

You made my heart leap when I saw your craft room…It doesn’t take long when you are working in it?…I love seeing the progress…Hopefully, will motivate me…Blessings, Becky
Glad they got there— and Mimi can go as crazy as she wants with them… I know someone who can get you girls more– and More 🙂

My gosh Mallie, yo are awesome. Congratulations in your new job my friend. I dore you!
I LOVE how you used the original packaging and Simply made it cuter 🙂 I do believe that ALL crafters and diy-ers need a whole separate house, just to house ALL there stuff.
Have a great day

Oh it all looks so pretty in the jars Desiree! Love that idea!
Thank you Gina!
Oh my goodness….how smart are you, Desiree! Love the idea, and am going to use it when I clean up my craft room next week!
One of the best things I have ever done! You are going to love it!
The jars make everything so pretty! I love this idea. My craft room is SOOOOOOOOOOOO bad right now. I am trying to make a plan because it needs to be an office/craft room/guest room. I will need to use some jars!
McKenzie make sure to come back tomorrow for many more organization ideas.
Love your idea of cutting the info off and keeping it with the products there from. I always think I won’t need that kind of stuff, until I do and then I am kicking myself. You even managed to make it look cute…hats off to you!
Thank you DeAnn!
Lucky lady! jealous of all those beads. Great idea with the organization! Even messy, your craft room still looks cute 🙂
Looks so nice and tidy now. What a great idea cuting the packing to make the labels with. Very clever.
Making craft supplies cute before you craft with them. That is a talent!
