The one cart that you said was flimsy is actually quite sturdy and easy to move . I have two white ones.

[@SM-yd8hq]

The Alex drawer comes out all the way if you take the small screw out of the slide. It's there so if it topples, Ikea can't be sued, but as long as you don't overfill your unit and don't open all the drawers at once, it's very stable and you can access the full drawer.

[@luv3pugs]

Thanks for taking us on a trip to IKEA. I’m still working from home and not going out to crowded places like IKEA, so I really appreciated this video trip.

[@Tiffany.Solorio]

You are so welcome! I hope you are doing well!

[@whimsicalendeavors]

I'm dying right now. That has been my dream craftroom for 10 years. Not even kidding. I've seen it every time I go. They change up the back but the desk is the same. Lol I'm working on mine this week. Hoping honey can help. Tfs Tiffany.

When we first moved to Nevada there wasn't one here. Glad they brought one here. Maybe one day you will get one closer. Thanks so much for watching!

I love the dream set up too! Now I have to run to Ikea and check it out!

[@LittleCraftyKitty]

IKEA should totally do "win a room makover" as a raffle or something lol that would be cool. I'd totally pick my craft room cuz its the most unorganized lol

[@Tiffany.Solorio]

oooohhhh that would be amazing!!

[@lisaleone2296]

I like the idea of pegboards, and the picture shelves for small items, but they use up important real estate on your walls that I would rather use for shelf units. I also like the idea of a dedicated desk but again you have to be creative in a small space. I built my craft room with Kallax units on as many walls as possible, and a rolling table in the middle made out of two of the short wide Alex units and a tabletop on top of them attached with velcro so I can disassemble it if I need to. I can move the table back and forth, put it up against one shelf unit or the other depending on what I'm working on, and I have plenty of room to work and store stuff. My biggest organization tip: Buy some of the tracks and totes that are made for the CreateRoom Dreambox. They fit perfectly in the Kallax unit.

[@jamiek8934]

Thank you! I’m building my dream craft room in a few months and this was soooo helpful!!

[@SkyblueHippie]

Thanks for the video Tiffany, it's been almost 1.5 years since my last trip to IKEA so I hope the new products I saw in the video are available in my country too.

[@Tiffany.Solorio]

That would be great. I love some of the new stuff but need to wait until I know what I want to do with my room LOL! Thanks for watching!

[@hurricanekitty6736]

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve rearranged my craft items - switched rooms, used different types of furniture that when all was put away looked amazing but then I began using stuff & id never put it away bc it wasn’t simple...the same goes for using things that were either a pain to reach or out of sight out of mind...then I watched a video by Julie balzer in which she said while organizing to keep in mind your cutlery draw. Everything should be as easy to locate, as easily accessible & as easy to put away as your forks spoons knives etc. use lots of drawers & label them all....not the most aesthetically pleasing of all the different ways I’ve tried to organize but it seems the most aesthetically pleasing = least functional & the least aesthetically pleasing the most functional so I guess it depends on what you’re looking for...

[@Tiffany.Solorio]

I will have to check her out. Thank you for sharing and watching.

I’ve been card making 4 yrs, I’m no way near that organized. I have a small craft room, which is full currently, and small. so I craft and have tons more craft supplies and desks or tables in my dinning rm and lvg room. Im overwhelmed right now, don’t know where to start. Have so many dies, stamps, paper and different ink pads. Ink pads, mini ink pads are in wooden ktcn boxes from Walmart. Oxide ink pads are in a wall ink pad storage from Organize More, I believe it’s called. Paper scraps are my biggest problem. I’m so in love with your craft room, love your desk and ideas.IKEA is a very far drive in Canada . Love the closet storage items in IKEA. Tfs

Tiffany, thank you for allowing me to get over any buyers remorse. My IKEA delivery should be here today. After watching, I'm only bummed out I didn't get the table at the end that folds up. It was the first I looked at. But I am thinking to get it anyway and tuck it away when I'm not using it. Happy crafting.

[@pennydouphinett4545]

My most disappointing Ikea purchase was the Alex drawers. I couldn't believe none had mentioned they only open half way. To say that is a pain in the neck is being generous. They are also pretty shallow. You can make them work, but it was a large, unpleasant surprise.

[@Tiffany.Solorio]

I have a video on my channel where I do say that they only open about 1/2 way and that there is so much wasted space. I mention the frustration in other videos too. They aren't cheap either which is so frustrating.

[@sherrybear5886]

I can’t remember where I saw the video, but someone showed how to make the drawers open all the way.

[@mrsmiggins6435]

Wish I had a ikea nearby

[@libbylandscape3560]

Love your insights, thank you! Wish I lived closer to an IKEA. Solid wood might be more pricy but it’s worth it because it’ll stand up to a beating and can be repaired, making it a good investment. Whereas less expensive fiberboard might look the same but the surface often is easily damaged, and the fiberboard itself cannot be repaired if it’s broken, making it not as good of an investment.

[@Tiffany.Solorio]

I live about a hour from Ikea. We don't go often but it is always fun! You are so right about actual wood. I think I am going to have my hubby make me a desk eventually. Thanks so much!

[@SUSSDUE]

I bough a huge solid wood dining table at Ikea that is now my craft desk. Would not touch laminate as it deteriorates so quickly w heavy use.

I did have the hemnes tower night stand when i hade only a corner of the guess room beacause it match the deesser i had. Now i have a room all to my self in the house we purchase and the hemnes pieces are in the nusrsery and i have a kallax unit instead. But we can make so many items fits our needs.

[@Pxzvamp33]

Hello Tiffany thanks for all the great ideas you shared! Can you by chance remember the name of the grey drawer unit with metal handles that you called your dream craft room? The one that looked like a work station. You did not show a tag for it in the video. Thanks again!

[@maiaallman4635]

[@LolaboneC]

When you showed the dream craft book, is it sold as one ?

[@sherrydmyterko-tramp8654]

We came back from the one in Merriam funny you have many of the things I looked at n mentioned the same things like the Kallax drawers are not deep. I bought a tray to go in my Alex drawer but it wasn’t by them n I didn’t know if it would fit. I don’t like that things get lost in the back of the drawers. I thought the divided tray will help.

[@kkrolf2782]

i find it telling that some of the cabinetry you chose were actually SHALLOW bookcases. A fella here on youtube that demonstrates his product, EZStud something something, actually promotes the premise that any time you “hide” an item behind something that is not at the very least closely SIMILAR, you have indeed LOST it. You can’t utilize what you don’t remember you have, and truly “out of sight IS out of mind”. I’d L O V E to have the crafter’s closet he helped one lady do in her craft room. EVERYthing is accessible. Even if we’re saddled with standard depth cabinets, it’d still behoove us to install rollout drawers (horizontal), or something akin to vertical spice shelves that can pull out - B U T with shelves at least deep enough to accommodate dvd cases? I’m finding that sooo M A N Y things fit in those gems (I’ve bought the thicker ones. Not only will they hold unmounted stamps, but also die cuts, card bases, and the like for a project in progress!), and the labeling makes it as easy as finding a book on a shelf!

[@24get24give]

of course, Abby had to get in the shot with her cute hairdo and Vanna-like skills. she's a natural!

the desk (in your dream set up) that had the drawers and the huge top with the sewing machine, what is the name of that? i tried to go back and look but i couldn't see the name-thanks!

[@Tiffany.Solorio]

It is actually a countertop and cupboards from the kitchen department. I will try to look for them online shortly. So sorry about that.

[@SUSSDUE]

"Bängbula"?? I am Swedish and have always wondered what those who are not Scandinavian think of the names of Ikea stuff;-)! Most are placenames, at least the furniture, but some have really fun random Swedish words, but I have to confess never to have heard the expression "bängbula" before;-). The american branch of Ikea seems to have more stuff than we have in the Swedish ikea stores, loads of small interesting organisation stuff I have never seen before, and then I go to Ikea at least every other month. Interesting video to watch, especially for us in Europe as we over here never can get hold of those special cardmaking/scrapbooking organisation stuff you have over in the US, like ink storage.

I’m sure there are plenty (60k+ people) that do enjoy your videos, but it felt disingenuous with no real opinion on anything [isn’t that why people watch a particular person’s videos?] and I couldn’t continue to watch.
