Craft Room Storage DIY

Craft Room Storage DIY

Craft room storage is something I’ve been giving a lot of thought to.  Like my office, my craft room is my living room.  I keep my craft supplies in the living room and then craft in the kitchen at the table.  

Some day I would love to have a real craft room but for now, I’ll have to deal with what I have. When I bring craft supplies into the house, I need to be aware of what kind of craft room storage I have.

I don’t want huge piles of craft supplies out in the open for everyone to see. I tend to keep things in drawers but then I forget what is inside and it all gets mixed together so I can’t find anything.

Supplies for this DIY

I started with a simple organizer from the dollar store that has three drawers.  Then, I labeled each drawer with what I wanted to store in it. Finally, I used the Silhouette Cameo to make the letters for each drawer.  It’s very simple to do. Just open up the software on your computer and write your phrase or words.  

You can choose all sorts of different fonts and re-size things easily to fit the area you are working in. Once that is done, you just connect the Silhouette Cameo to your computer and load the paper on the special cutting mat. Carefully remove the letters and glue or tape them on your organizer.

You will not believe how easy it is to use the Silhouette Cameo. No more trying to cut things out on the lines without destroying them.   Everything is the same size and neatly cut. I made my letters out of regular scrapbook paper you can buy at the craft store.

  1. Okay ~ I have serious envy going on!  I  have not  heard of this before but I want one bad now!  Your storage looks fantastic.  I really need to get mine better organized. It would save me so much time.  I have put it on my wish list, but I know it will be after the first of the year.  Thanks for the heads up!

  6. Same here, even worst. I don't have a big storage space for my supplies and I stocked up too much. I also need to bring crafts supplies from one place to another place. The craft organizer is a great help. I wish that I can afford a Cameo but Big Shot is my biggest affordable investment, just need to make the most use of it.
