CRAFT ROOM TOUR 2023 | TIPS ON MAXIMIZING SPACE

[@barbaraparker8225]

Wonderful craft room tour. So much fun to watch. The eye shadow pallet holders are the best tip EVER! Seriously. No one is doing that. You ROCK! I love how you say that too many supplies weighs us down. Everyone is always selling us something. We have to have it all or we are missing out. Who told us that?! Stop buying things you know you will never use. As for the craft cart, just take it outside and spray paint it WHITE.

[@thiscallsforconfetti]

Thank you❤

[@mzp6620]

Good idea about just spraying the cart!

[@RinasAMaker]

Your room is great! Without going through your comments, you can spray paint your black cart. If the cart itself is fine, a good spray paint by Kilz or Krylon should cover it in 1 coat. TFS 😊

[@debe1955]

I really like this room. The white/clear design keeps it looking fresh and clean. Colour comes from the supplies and your art on the walls. Really great tips. Thank you. ❤️🇨🇦

[@rosiekronz-yk3qq]

I am so coveting your craft room! Finally, someone who reveals the dimensions of her small craft space. My space is about the same size as yours, but there is a large floor-to-ceiling window and window seat on one side, and the opposite side is entirely closets. I don’t know if you panned around your room or if I just missed it. I would have liked to see the whole room. It is encouraging to know I can, as you have, design a useable craft space with so little real estate. Also like you, I don’t have much of a budget to work with. You did an excellent job designing a very comfortable, functional craft room. I am very happy for you! Thanks for sharing.

[@thiscallsforconfetti]

Thanks for watching! In the beginning, I pan the room, but with so little to pan, it's easy to miss. As small as my space is, it works for me. Using the IKEA room planner was a game changer for me as it allowed me to visualize things in my small space before purchasing them. ❤️

[@Yinyara]

I absolutely love your craft room, it looks so calm and clean with all the white. This would be my dream craft room 😍

[@luglug8995]

One of the most inspiring craft room spaces i've seen. Yes you could fit more in some drawers but because you can does not mean you should... What's important is that you have what you need at your fingertips and feel inspired to create in this room, and not to manage tons of stuff. You made everything simple, accessible and pretty (I also have mini drawers organized by ink color, I love opening them). I also use the same container for my glue eraser and pens and so on in the exact same way, it made me laugh😂. I have a similar space for crafting, it does not need to be bigger. Too many craftroom tours make me feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of stuff and in my opinion are too much about "look what I have" and "you should buy this". This video is refreshing.

[@introvert22]

Wow.

[@mzp6620]

This was extremely helpful for me. Not only on the advice to build slowly, but HOW to build it out slowly. This room would be a dream room for me. I love the white/clear happy vibe and also the limited counter space and design. This room is fab! I will take your advice on the purging. I don't do this for a living so I'm sure I don't have the sheer volume that others have, but I know I have stuff that haven't seen the light of day in years. It does seem overwhelming to me because it's all on 'display'. No cabinets...yet! I really like how you did your inks...that makes so much sense! Thanks again, this was helpful.

[@pconan1]

You are so right about light in a small area. Mine is 100 square feet too. Your organization and cabinetry is beautiful ❤

[@thiscallsforconfetti]

Thank you!❤️ Do you love being in a small space? I find it keeps me in check.🤣🤣🤣

[@pconan1]

@@thiscallsforconfetti I do! I just need it a bit more tidy looking, being able to contain stuff in drawers or cabinets would be great. But a little at a time. During Covid I couldn’t find the IKEA glass from cabinet I wanted in white so I picked the dark blue thinking I could trade out for white and use this elsewhere in the house but I LOVE the blue. I store all my stamps and dies, stencils and embossing folders in it along with a a shelf for art reference material etc. but the rest of the room I would like white👍🏻 thanks for sharing.

[@luglug8995]

And a dedicated place for die cutting and paper cutting on a flat surface is not wasted space, it's really useful and practical.

[@jigglinggiggles]

Spray paint your black cart white! You might need a couple coats of paint( Maybe prime it)but it should work great

[@crystalcarpenter6738]

I hope you found the cart you wanted BUT my first thought was that if you haven't yet, as a crafter, you could definitely fix it. Get that Cricut out and go to town. Make the black "go away". Make it an accent or a "frame" for a design. Thanks for all the ideas.

[@LynnWrigley]

One thing you can do is get some spray paint and paint your black cart. That has worked for me in a pinch and is usually very inexpensive! Your craft space is great and organized. Thank you for the video!

[@S.M.M-i4i]

This is brilliant! Way to go! I have an office/craft room, but haven’t had time for crafting in years. I do have a lot of IKEA products I went with white vans and drawers, even though I really love the new deep blue color they have. Color change. I’ve been able to because I stuck with a neutral color. We are finishing off our shed into a workshop/storage/ hang out area. I was looking for ideas for hidden tool storage and nice looking workbenches since we finished off the space and it looks too nice to be messy!😂 I love how you used the Alex drawers combined with the shoe cubbies for the higher workspace. Thanks for sharing your great ideas.

[@lissetsanchez5316]

I LOVE THE WAY YOU HAVE YOUR CRAFT ROOM ORGANIZED. THANK YOU FOR SHARING! ☺

[@vaderladyl]

Yes any very light colored room is helpful to bounce light around the room,which helps to see better when crafting. I have my room in a very light creamy beige, with natural and light oak colored woods , and my containers are opaque because I personally don't like clear , as I find it a bit visually cluttered for my taste.

[@lindanaughton9689]

[@lisaparcels5863]

Your use of space is outstanding!

[@willowsverge3046]

I tore my cart back apart and put a primer spray paint on then hit it with a really warm pink. Since i picked the exact color, i think i love it far more. I also saved quite a bit buy doing it myself! Love your room!!!!

[@LadyBug-xp1ox]

I purchased one of those four teir cart in white from Michaels recently.

[@stampinwithalohajoyceb9310]

[@deniselynn9823]

Lisa your craft space is just beautiful! Love the bright white walls and pops of rainbow color, it’s a cheerful happy place, I know I would love to craft here. Thank you for sharing your space, taking the time to show us all these great storage and organizing tips, and letting us peek into your crafty world. I love how you’ve maximized your 100 sq ft into not only a beautiful but very functional space too. Your room makes me want to clean mine out and start from scratch. Love love love ❤️oh and Emma has a pink cart from Michaels but they had other colors too. 3 tiers on wheels. Hope you find what you’re looking for.

[@sarahbritt5992]

Beautiful small room but looks big.

[@rhondabrock6483]

Have you considered painting the black cart to white? It will save $ and will utilize an item you already have. You won’t have to find it a new home or try to ensure the items stored there will translate to a new version that might not have the same dimensions. Just a thought. I love your craft room!

[@thiscallsforconfetti]

Hi Rhonda. Yes, I have thrown the idea around but I'm hoping to find a cart that's a better fit. I probably should've mentioned everything in this house gets repurposed. Like the Kallax unit I originally purchased is now used in the dining room for extra storage for our business. When you live in a small house you learn to create storage wherever and however possible. Thank you for commenting!❤️

[@craftcreek4624]

How about a teal cart, to match your MISTI? Wayfair, Michael’s, Amazon, there’s even a four-tier one that’s slimmer

[@sandraramirez6116]

Beautiful room set up. Thanks for sharing.

[@TracyisCrafty]

You could paint the cart white

[@minervamayberry3758]

Your video was so good, i had to watch it twice.

[@luglug8995]

I also agree on the fact that light is more important than space for that hobby and it's really useful to see how a small craft room can be extremely functional.

[@BeInspired2177]

Love your craft space!! I just moved into a small rental while I build & I greatly appreciate your inspiration!! TFS!! 💕

[@handiscandi]

Lisa, your space is wonderful! Your tips are soo smart and makes good sense when you explain, but my brain just struggles with organization. You've inspired me to "do better". Also, I have 2 white carts from Michael's, very similar to Ikea. I believe I've seen white ones at JoAnn as well. Muwah!!

[@tawnyaberry1078]

So before anything holy crap craftastic girl I had no idea about the ikea design app that’s a game changer, thank you. Also this is the craft cart at in white from Michael’s. It’s a little more than just the 3 shelves but I love the ability to utilize the sides for organizing

[@tawnyaberry1078]

[@dianecarey3061]

Love your craftroom. have you thought about painting your black cart?

[@ravenlunatic1177]

What a great crafting space. Looks like you thought everything out well. Definitely looking forward to watching more of your in depth videos. As for your craft cart , if it’s only the color that’s bugging you - why not spray paint it white? Rustoleum & other brands have some great paints for metal coverage. You can find an all in one paint & primer, that could possibly only need 1 coat of paint. If you don’t like the idea of spraying it, you could always find a local shop that does powder coating. I’m not sure on the cost, but it’s always an option. Cheers from FL😺

I bought that Copic storage and then realized that Copics are meant to be stored standing up. They apparently leak if they are stored laying down too long. I'm curious to see how that storage works out long term because I'd love to use mine for my Copics! It would be so much better space wise than where I have them now.

[@thiscallsforconfetti]

I wanted to share how the Copic Marker website recommends storing are markers horizontally to prevent ink from accumulating on one end. I , too, use to store them standing up and had terrible experiences with them which was the reason I switched to this storage. copic.jp/en/support/spec/spec-2/#:~:text=To%20prevent%20the%20ink%20from,and%20waiting%20for%20a%20while).

Sooooo much visual clutter in such a small space. Small spaces need to clutter free; especially the walls. You have amazing flat surfaces to work on but you have reduced their working capabilities in 1/2 by having all that stuff on them. You have so much under utilized storage space. There are some amazing small space and tiny home living KZbin videos that can help you make the most of your 100foot space and the amazing amount of storage you are not using to it’s full potential.
