I did another make over of my craft space, it’s nice and tidy again, ready to be messed up again…and…I found some misplaced supplies 😉
On the right is my favorite supplies on a lazy Susan and on my left are other supplies in a three tiered wire-rack on a Lazy Suzan.
You can see here how it looked before, the wooden Ikea boxes and drawers were pretty, but not very practical, as they were difficult to open while working.
In the winter I work upstairs in our home office, so that I have more natural light, it is warmer than My Craft-room, which is in the basement and I am closer to my family. I repurposed an Ikea bookcase that we had for my work-space. We have had the bookcase a few years now, so I don’t think Ikea sells them anymore.
I do Art Journaling, Bead-work, Bookmarks, Cards, Scrapbooking, Tags, Mixed Media, Steam-punk, etc.
I store Stickles, Ranger Distress inks, glitter-glue, etc. in Vanity Organizers for lipstick and nail polish. I store them upside down, they fit better and it helps keep the nozzles clear.
Mini diluted misters.
On the Lazy Susan is a pencil sharpener, water bottle, paint brushes, scissors, pens, coloring pencils, pencils, rulers, disposable cups, etc. The wire baskets are from Ikea and Dollar-stores.
This was a Thrift-store find.
A 3 tiered wire rack in a tray on a Lazy Susan,
which holds small supplies tools, etc.
The wire baskets are from Ikea and Dollar-stores.
The top-tier holds Emory boards (which I use for sanding painted surfaces
and distressing), small scissors, etc.
Center is sticky notes, (used for masking) erasers and photo-corners.
Bottom tier holds Adhesive, eye-shadow applicators, etc.
In the tray at the bottom are my punches.
On my left is a Råskog cart on the right is a small table with glass sheets to protect my work in progress.

So ‘n georganiseerde wrkplek is ‘n groot plesier, maar myne bly nie lank so nie.

Deesdae absoluut minimalisties Linda. Slegs my rekenaartoerusting en ‘n waterbottel. My kreatiwiteit vind plaas in my kop (en op die oomblik is dit ook nie baie aktief nie) – ek werk nie met my hande nie. Tien duime. Voorheen was ek altyd toegegooi van boeke en papiere, maar dis die voordeel van die internet, alles is op my skerm. Lank lewe Google!

I wouldn’t think that storing the paint upside down would help keep the nozzles clear. Interesting. I am envious of your craft space. I am usually crafting on my dining room table and that gets tiring (having all the stuff out).

I actually have an office I should be able to craft in, but I have elected to host the cats’ litter box so the litter dust gets all over so I don’t like to paint in here. Plus it is a disaster – no room to paint (I like to paint on glass bottles).

There was a time that I also worked at our dining room table. I have a Raskog, which I find very handy, You can see the post here.

I like to make gifts and for now that is/was painting bottles (to make lights) and candle holders. But there really are only so many lights and candle holders you can give people. 🙂 We also have a lot of yard ornaments (and things) that get faded and I like to repaint them.

I did pottery at a time, but where do you put everything ? I didn’t want to sell them, I did gift some….. That’s why I like what I’m doing now, as the finished project takes up less space.
