CRAFT ROOM TOUR :: How I Organize My Planner Supplies

[@tesslovesyarn]

Hello dear, a tip for storing those sticky notes, use a piece of double sided tape on them and they will stick beautifully. I love your videos and have used so many of your ideas. I also love your pintables in your Etsy store. They are exactly what I needed. Thank you so much for everything you do to help all of us planner gals out here. You are amazing, Stephanie!

[@squairdplans]

I don't know why I never thought of double sided tape?! I used tombow glue runner on the backs but it didn't work consistently (as you saw). Double side tape would definitely be more durable. TFS!

[@oatmealandteal2179]

Your office is extremely neat and organized. It is so practical. It is not some huge basement or cottages...they are gorgeous but almost no one has a space like that. Most of us are using a second bedroom or a shared space to make our creative plans. I love this! ❤🎉😊

[@squairdplans]

So true! I wish I had one of those dream craft rooms but honestly, I have all that I need in my current space. Happy that I could share it with you!

[@simplymerrion4823]

Agree!

[@JessiLeeD]

I’m such a nosy person 😂I have been waiting for a video like this to see your space! ❤

[@squairdplans]

I’m glad you enjoyed it! I’ve been wanting to share my space for a while. Just took me getting over my perfectionist nature to make it happen.

[@amydockter536]

I love this! It is helpful for us people who like to connect with our favs! Like a little peek into your space helps connect. So many great ideas!

[@squairdplans]

Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the tour! 😊

[@brendanesslar7676]

I’ve always wanted to see your planner area! Thanks so much for sharing with us your creative spot!

[@squairdplans]

Happy to share! Thanks for watching!

[@ellieplanit]

Perfect timing! I’m trying to put together and organize my office/filming/craft space this weekend, and I need inspiration 💖

[@squairdplans]

Hope the tour provides some inspiration for your space!

[@lindajohnson6905]

You did great. You really have a lovely and organized space. Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@squairdplans]

Thanks so much! Happy to share!

[@bookishpelican4991]

[@squairdplans]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@simplymerrion4823]

Super Organized and cute!

[@squairdplans]

Thanks so much!

[@shellyt9620]

Love your space! I love a micro organized space. Congratulations on your channel growth. Well deserved!

[@squairdplans]

So glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for watching!

[@wendyhoward2699]

This was great! TFS. Many blessings to you.

[@squairdplans]

Happy to share!

[@BlueEyedBabe03]

Your craft room and my dream office area have some stark similarities--clean, organized, rainbow=colored accents. Like, I'm pretty sure my jaw dropped in the first 20 seconds of the video. xD

[@madetobeamom]

What a happy and cozy place to create, you have there. ❤

[@squairdplans]

Thank you! ☺️

[@ChaoticCatPlans]

Thanks for the great video, so many fun storage ideas. I can't keep my pens out in the open like that, though, my cat would run off with them!

[@lisafraser2313]

😂

[@squairdplans]

😂 Aww, cats...they love to cause trouble. 😼

[@michellehenry5019]

I may have found my soul sister! I didn't think there was another who had at least as many pens and markers as myself, but you're pushing it! I love your set up. Thank you for all the wonderful inspiration.

[@squairdplans]

You know it's a problem when you have to have a drawer JUST for pens…😜

[@eb9844]

LOVE THIS!! Thanks for sharing your little piece/peace of paradise ❤❤❤

[@squairdplans]

Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed!

[@renebjerke9684]

Great job showing how you organize your supplies. You gave me some new ideas to try. Thanks so much for going out of your comfort zone.

[@squairdplans]

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks so much for watching!

[@thatsallbriwrote]

Thank you for sharing! I love how you’ve organized everything, especially the sticker book storage! Everything is functional and has its place

[@squairdplans]

You bet! It’s all about finding that sweet spot of function and style.

[@ThankfulNanaDiane]

Thanks for sharing! It will be fun to picture you in your beautiful space when I watch your videos. (I love craft room tours.) I have those see-through boxes from Dollar Tree, too, but in pink. 😊 I’m a pink girl. 😊❤

[@squairdplans]

I have one in pink...I got all the colors! LOL!

[@melodyhuber4769]

So many great tips! Thanks for sharing your space! I made a stickie binder using old HP covers and Tombow adhesive. Works well.

[@squairdplans]

That's a great use of old planner covers! I love finding new uses for old supplies.

[@Vestie9]

That looks so organized. I could only dream of having a beautiful craft room one day! 💖

[@squairdplans]

Aww, thanks. For the longest time, I was in shared living space, planning and working in a corner of our living room. I think you can create a little haven for crafting anywhere with a little thoughtful organization.

[@MichelleTurnz]

Love this!

[@squairdplans]

Thank You!

[@jennbell4251]

What a thoughtfully organized space. I enjoyed the tour and thanks for sharing. 😊

[@squairdplans]

I’m glad you enjoyed! 😊 Thanks for watching!

[@CarolKennedy-k9p]

You have made my day with this video! I needed your inspiration and details to give me ideas to set up my office/craft/etc room and store all the stuff. Seeing the pens in that lazy susan holder brings me joy! Thanks you!

[@squairdplans]

Happy to be a source of inspiration! And the rainbow ordered pens bring me joy, too!

[@JudysInkPad]

I'm recovering from the flu and seeing this video this morning brought a huge smile to my face! I know it was a labor of love and appreciate it so much. I also have the Alex drawers and it was super helpful to see how you use them. Thanks for sharing!

[@squairdplans]

So glad to hear it! Hope you are fully recovered soon!

[@steppy3736]

You did great!

[@squairdplans]

Aww, thanks! I definitely wanted to wait until the office was more organized and then wanted to reshoot because the filming wasn't stellar, but I am learning to be okay with imperfection. Happy that it was well received as is. 😅

[@carolyncampbell8126]

Thank you for doing this craftroom tour! You did great. 😊

[@squairdplans]

Thanks so much! Happy to share! 😁

[@kimfields1000]

So many great ideas, Stephanie! I especially liked seeing how you store the mini ephemera in the photo storage binders 💛

[@squairdplans]

Thanks! I'm obsessed with how well those binders hold all the little sets & packs so functionally!

[@gillianedeson8105]

Wow, so organized. Thanks so much for sharing; it's greatly appreciated! The video turned out great! Love the photo album idea for journalsay size stickers.

[@squairdplans]

I’m so glad you liked the tour and the photo album idea! 😄

[@antonym4u910]

Snagged some ideas for storage in my planning/craft room, tysm for sharing/showing! What an awesome lil' planning oasis 😊

[@squairdplans]

Happy to share! So glad you gleaned some ideas! 😊

[@jacquelinescrimgeour8831]

I had so much fun this morning watching your craft room video. You gave me so many new ideas. I too would like to know where you got your desk. It looks so user friendly. Actually right now I am using my daughter’s white desk from when she was in university. She just turned 50 and it is falling apart. Thank you for such a delightful video 😊

[@squairdplans]

Oh goodness! 30 years is a long while for a desk...LOL! Mine is an Ikea Gallant desk, but sadly, they don't sell it anymore. 😢

[@lindawoodfill503]

Great set up ! Thanks for sharing.

[@squairdplans]

Happy to share! 😊

[@lisafraser2313]

This was great! Thanks so much for making the effort to take us on a tour of your space. I am in the midst of decluttering and reorganizing my planning space and your video gave me a few new ideas and some inspiration 😊. Storing your markers by colour instead of brand/type is brave 😅. I might give it a try! I love your aesthetic and planning style and recently picked up some items from your Etsy shop; likely my first purchase of many 😂

[@squairdplans]

I am glad you enjoyed! And take a chance on on color ordering your pens/markers. I find that it helps me match up the best colors to my planning themes, and helps me use the pens more often.

[@cathystaples2490]

Nice work Stephanie ❤

[@squairdplans]

Thank you so much! ☺️

[@ruthiekins]

Gurl! After seeing your stash of stickers, can't nobody tell me nothing about my stash! I was thinking I had a lot of stickers. Psshh, nah! Great video as always! Tfs!

[@squairdplans]

Glad I could validate your sticker stash! Even with all these stickers, I still feel like I need a refresh every so often. 😂

[@suecowan3602]

Your office/planning room is wonderful!! I was wondering, though, do you do any other crafts? Ya know "in your spare time"? Thanks for all you do!! You are one of the MOST organized people I watch.

[@squairdplans]

I used to do more crafting (Dollar Store Seasonal Decor, Candlemaking, Bath Bombs, Painting, Knitting, Card Making) but haven't really had the time since i started sharing my creative planning journey and building up my etsy shop. But I am a creator at heart, so I love handmaking things.

[@ziapaige5751]

Good morning! Currently watching and enjoying your space. I was keeping those black Sharpie gel pens in the pocket of the zippered Happy Planner cover. You know the color indicator is at the bottom so you can’t see it while it’s stored. I did color swatches like you have done. I also used a bit of scotch tape to keep them on. I suggest turning the labels vertically and adding tape. Not sure if it will help with fading but I haven’t had issues with lifting. I also LOVE how your sticker books are stored! I can’t go back. 😂😂 It’s all on carts. I use mini binders and sleeves and Jojo’s storage system.

[@squairdplans]

Thanks for the tips with the pen swatches. I added a bit of tape to some of them and it helped keep them on but the sun bleaching was still an issue, unfortunately. 😔 Maybe I’ll do a refresh one day when I have the time. 😏😅

[@katheysplan3833]

Love it😍

[@squairdplans]

Thank you! ☺️

[@llzelenack]

Love it! Thanks for doing this for us! Where did you get your desk?

[@squairdplans]

It is an Ikea Gallant desk, but sadly, they don't sell it anymore. 😢

[@yorkie_mom]

Well done!! Great job getting out of your comfort zone. Will you ever get on Patreon?

[@squairdplans]

I'd love to start a Patreon but I just haven't found the time. Perhaps one day...

[@tracililley9760]

Great video. What kind of desk do you have and where did the monitor stand come from?

[@squairdplans]

It is an Ikea Gallant desk, but sadly, they don't sell it anymore. 😢 The monitor stands are also IKEA, built with the legs they sell and a AS IS shelf board from their returns section. 👍

[@steppy3736]

If there is a preschool near you they are always in need of crafting supplies. I donate washi tapes, stickers, etc.

[@squairdplans]

Thanks for the info! My SIL is an early elementary school teacher, and I have donated items extra items to her class in the past.

[@heatherlawson1699]

Where did you get the thin plastic storage for paper? In bottom tote in cabinet.

[@squairdplans]

Those A4 containers were from Daiso 👍

[@MariFern3]

Great tour thank you! For me though the background music was distracting from your soothing voice 😬

[@squairdplans]

Thanks for the feedback! I try to keep the music pretty low but the song I used is bit louder than most of the ones I use in my rotation.

[@sofiakarim2978]

❤❤❤❤

[@squairdplans]

Thanks! ☺️
