Craft Room: Part 1

Here is the first part of my craft room series (post intro and before tour of course) in which I showcase my progress thus far. Yes, it has been slow going, but I am so, so happy I am finally getting it done. And yes, I do realize this is INSANELY long and I promise that my subsequent videos will be shorter. I think I'm just going to have to break things down into more parts as I can't seem to talk less. I hope to have another video of the craft room out next month.

people, its a craft room, supposed to be filled with crafts!!! i had a sewing room , filled with fabrics, notions and different sewing machines. these were items i needed to do my art with! her room is not cluttered and its very organized...........you did an amazing job!! i love your craft room!!!!

[@WithWonder]

@OohToBeFree Glad you enjoyed it! I like having my paper in the filing folders because then I can see how much I have in what colors and it stays neat.

[@LadyRoseCamelot]

I so appreciate you taking the time to post this! Love how you have made your room work for you. I am slowly making way in my craft room/office.

[@ioanarm]

your craft room is very beautiful,it has everything that one could need.i've never seen one before but i bet that none can beat yours

[@emtala]

Hey can you do a what's in your purse? And also I'd love to see what you included in your "packing for a complicated trip" list! Like you should do a packing for just a normal trip somewhere for a week. That would be super helpful and interesting! I always end up bringing too many pants and not enough shirts etc!

[@nagaca88]

@ everyone that has said mean things about her things: everyone's life is different. If you feel the need to have less things I think its your opinion but its rude to tell someone to "get rid of some things". They might not want to and its not your decision. Leave her alone. It's her life and who wouldn't love to have this. She is blessed and that's all! I love your videos Jen! :) thanks for your tips!

[@WithWonder]

@stampinivy I bought all of my craft room furniture from Pottery Barn. The big desk in the middle is the Bedford Project Table. I love that it's counter height and so wide. I can lay out big projects on it.

[@ArtJourneyUK]

I love your organisation ideas! Although I have much less stuff and space than you, your ideas can be downsized to suit as needed. Thanks for sharing your ideas and life with us!

[@WithWonder]

@emtala I usually overpack, too. I hate not being prepared!! Looks like I might be going away in March for a week long trip and I could definitely do a packing video for that showcasing my packing list. I'm planning on filming a purse video next week, so stay tuned!

[@whitetigess]

I wish I had a room to organize. There are so many great ideas out there that i am sure would make my crafting life easier. Thanks for sharing.

[@MariaPenu]

Hi Jen! I think this is a gorgeous room and it shows how much thought and work you put into it. (I'm catching up on your earlier videos now.) Anyway, I hope you enjoy the room everyday - you really deserve it. I think you're just the nicest person ever! Merry Christmas from Romania!

[@siennavine81]

I love the filing cabinets, but I think the reason that both drawers can't be opened at the same time is because filing cabinets are usually built that way.

[@Victoriaxx08]

Wow, I'm so excited for all the videos you have planned!

[@WithWonder]

@wahini101 I am wearing Zoya nail polish in the color Valerie. It looks darker on the video than in person. It is a gorgeous, deep wine-colored purple with a little sparkle to it. Love it!

[@WithWonder]

@lizbethmari3 You can buy the acrylic desk protectors separately through Pottery Barn

[@cityhomestead4490]

thanks for showing me your organization solutions, I love the sliding system for you monthly planners. I will go and look for that here in my country. thanks again.

[@WithWonder]

@DOMINIE4EVER All of the furniture in my craft room is from Pottery Barn, still available. Called the Bedford Collection.

[@L_Bocua]

What kind of crafts do you do? What sort of projects do you make? Would you mind sharing things you've made?

[@camelia725]

Jen...in one of your vlogs this week it seemed like you had switched up the organization of your shelves of your craft room. Would you consider doing an updated tour? Love everything you do!

[@YouHaveAGoodPoint]

Hey Jen, I love your posts. I heard you mention once before that since you went digital on ical you have been forgetting birthdays. I wanted to suggest that with ical, you can set an alarm to go off every year on a particular date so that you wont miss anymore birthdays. You can have it go off a few days before the actual event.

[@WillowRoseOfficial]

Please can you do a pet organising video which is about the routine and supplies. That would be awesome!

[@Lauras0801]

I still love your room! I love the color, your furniture and even the basket of owls (especially the white one...I love owls, too) I also have a Shih tzu! I just bought him home when on September 1st, we got him while on vacation in Tennessee after I lost my beloved last dog July 5th (he was a bearded collie mix). My new dog is Dunkin (like the donut since my husband had to stop at Dunkin Donuts each morning while on vacation) and he is so sweet! He is 7 months old now and tri- colored.

[@SassyNpinkable]

I think I missed the "craft" part...It's more like an office with wrapping center.

[@adrienneb1132]

.

[@T.R.P25]

Hi Jen, can you please make a separate video on how you organize your papes? that would be really helpful. Thank you!

[@Authentic127]

Great video but there is wayyyyy too much stuff in that room.

[@OohToBeFree]

I always walk away with at least one good tip for your videos. This time, I'm walking away with several :-) I especially love the idea of storing extra paper in filing folders. I have two filing cabinets that are not being used so I plan to put our extra paper there. Thank you!

[@pecanteerin209]

you have a nice and beautifull craft room and complete craft things. you can get anything that you want. do you have any DIY tips that you can share?

[@honmin8201]

Pottery Barns calls your craft rm desk toppers 'Bridges,' other supplies refer to them as a 'Hutch' but they are often taller. Have you done a room-by-room inventory and evaluated supplies for insurance? Do you use up supplies before they become obsolete? I wish you'd hung the paper roll cabinet to form a visual line with the top of adjacent shelving to give the eye a rest

[@ucantseeme33]

I love the color of your blue paint on the walls could you let me know what color this is?

[@Legomamato6]

I love this room! the wall color is great, the Pottery Barn furniture is beautiful and just so pretty. Bummed though to see that the wall craft station is no longer available, they are so great. I was wondering though, what is the size of your room? Love all of your videos, keep them coming.

[@Kikopanson]

Amazing! I dont want to sound awkward but. What do you do occupational wise if you do? Or your hubby

[@soldierslady2504]

I've never wrapped a gift in my life. Always put it in a bag with some colorful paper on top. That's is my best effort !! lol

[@Bea_the_witch]

you're so pretty owo I'm slowly changing my bedroom into a partial craft room XD it's still a mess but it's getting there. I hope to get my rooms as organized as yours. Hopefully I can transform my spare/storage room into the craft room and move everything into the attic or something

[@emtala]

Yeah I'm going away in march also so hopefully I'll be able to watch it before I go!

[@stampinivy]

Wow! Your craft room is amazing. Could you tell me where you purchased your craft table? Thanks for sharing - I am definitely inspired to organize my craft room / office.

[@lindaalberts8770]

Will you please post size long and wide of your beautifully organized craft office? Thank you. I know this is an old video so I hope you see the request.

[@alisonrichard624]

You always apologize for the videos being long but you should know that it's ok! (: We all love your videos and the long ones are just even better! You are so easy to listen to and all of your tips are helpful (: Keep the long videos coming!!

[@koolios4]

That ceramic rabbit ash tray on your desk is the same one they used in Looper!

[@TheKaity1965]

You are extremely organized...I am trying to get there but I still have Teens in the house so it can be frustrating getting them to put things away. Where did you get your wrapping paper organizer?

[@mkmakie511]

YAY I have the same water bottle in red!! Love the room so far!!

[@BBYLiLAXiONG]

could you go into more detail on how you file your financial , etc things ?

[@WithWonder]

@theJuicymimi Did you think it was too long?

[@stampnsp2]

Love this craft room.. where did you buy the gift wrap centers you have on the wall??? LOVE those.. Thank you for sharing you have such great ideas!! Sharon

[@toveaugustinsson7203]

I Like the calender thing. Can you please write down how u done it? I didn´t understand everything in the video. Thanks very much. Love the idea u done there.

[@dominia94]

Love your craft room! It's a craft heaven!

[@HeatherDSellers]

Jen - I have just started watching your videos this week and have been watching loadt sof them. I must say that I find you delightful!! We share many things in common (love of organizing and pretty makeup :)). Thank you for taking the time to make these great videos! -Heather

[@totalpop13]

Where did you get the pen thing? You are so organized and i admire you for that. I could never do that

[@angelabrams]

I love the wall color. I'm just starting my craft room and I'm struggling for a color. What color is that blue and brand? Thanks.

[@yenninatalia]

totally loving ur room. how u organize ur stuffs :) very inspiring

[@KindigoParker]

I don't know if you have answered this before or not. But where did you buy your wrapping paper stations? Thanks. Love the videos. :D

[@Kori2706]

Very nice! I like the drawer with the files in different colors. Where did you buy the files? I want to do the same kind of color system, but I don't find beautiful files like that in France. So I'm considering bying in the US. ;-)

[@roztankes1]

Jen, thank you so much for your channel, I have been seeking an organizing mentor.

[@twobirdys]

Hi Jen, Excited to see your new videos. BTW what nail polish are you wearing? It's a gorgeous color.

[@jqi8872]

Jen, I simply LOVE all your videos! Could you spend some time to show us how you make Winnie's bows with those different ribbons you have? I do know that most of your bows come from a different supplier called 'Doggie Bow Ties'. Ignore all those dislikes (people are just jealous) and all the hateful comments (people are extremely jealous), we'll spam them for you! Keep posting those videos!

[@WithWonder]

@glitzygirl1234 that's a cup warmer

[@lizbethmari3]

Love the room:) question does the desks have a glass on it ? If so where did u get it ? I've been trying to find a place that has them for my daughters desk .. Thanks:)

[@WithWonder]

@cdgmalone Check back for my master closet reorganization series later this month!

[@rqsebud]

Love your craft room...nice & organized. Happy scrappin. :)

[@WithWonder]

@Victoriaxx08 Me, too! My goal is to upload one video a week.

[@Marylandgurl2002]

I love watching your long videos. A suggestion: for the viewers who want shorter videos perhaps you could put in your info bar the time frame where the project starts. As for me though I love the videos long

[@bexswanson]

You must be minted. So jealous I have a little space in a cupboard under the stairs. I wish I had all your problems, life would be so simple for me. The things I could make in your craft room would be unreal. I could come across to US and help you sort it all out if you like lol xxx So love your room xxx

[@carolhodson6353]

Jennifer I love your craftroom also I love owls. My craftroom is small and mine is a mess.

[@polymerclaymaker]

I genuinely aspire to be like you! Watching your videos makes me want a house when i am older and organise it like you hehe : )

[@WithWonder]

@Weebuchihappy I always find new ways and things to organize :)

[@theJuicymimi]

YAY! you are back :D i loved this vid! oh and you looked so pretty :O keep up with your awesome vids :)

[@AbbaJoy1]

I wouldn't want to be mean and hit the dislike button, but I don't think those who did are jealous, as some have suggested. I'm trying to find solutions to specific craft organization problems and -- maybe I am more the magazine type who would like to flip through and quickly find a picture of what I want instead of listening to details that may be sweet but don't apply to my need. I've looked at several videos by others and --well, I Must be a magazine person or visual rather than audio learner.

[@TheWigs07]

where did you get all the different color file folders??

[@WithWonder]

@HomeOrganizing I like all of my PB things :)

[@NarumiChIan]

Does that cup warmer really works?

[@betheversman9456]

will you show us your closest????

[@BulldogsAndBooks]

You look very young here. Perhaps it is just that you seem more comfortable now. Love this video.

[@DOMINIE4EVER]

i love the furniture! where did u get it?

[@butterflyangel32]

[@JennyLyness93]

What I like about you, is that you aren't one of those people who are almost or even allthe way OCD about it. It showa in the video tha yes, sometimes it IS okay to have a few things cluttered up on the counter.. BTW, we are both Jen:):)
