My Favorite Crafty Things 2017 -- Organization

[@MsTcup]

Holy guacamole. Jennifer puts so much info and work into this series year after year. Not only are the videos packed w info, attached is so much more that she writes. There are links, websites and more, all completely organized to a degree you would think there are multiple people doing this. I believe it’s just her. Literally amazing. Obviously she’s super smart and organized. Love it!

[@sarahwold4350]

You have such an enormous following...no worries!!!! You are an inspiration to each of us and keep me, in particular, excited about creating and of course, organized...tee hee!!! Creativity keeps me, as a very senior citizen, looking forward to each day and allowing me to share my joy in crafting and art. Bless you dear Jennifer and your family. Keep on filming to keep us all on our toes!! Love ya!

[@sherriejohnson9250]

Thank you so much, Jennifer, for the time you take to make your videos and share them with us. You said you wondered who was out there watching your videos and thanking us for spending some of our precious time watching them. Well, my dear...I am and older woman (72)...Grandma & Great Grandma...and I LOVE them. I almost get palpitations when I see you've posted another video. lol. And I especially enjoy this "Favorite Crafty Things" series. I've learned so much about different techniques...I'm a card maker primarily. I do own two Cricut machines and I've been buying so, so much of what you recommend! I love that you've tried these supplies, tools, etc., and let us know which ones are worth our $$. I am so excited because for Christmas I requested a couple of things I usually would not purchase myself. And my son & daughter-in-law (actually...I KNOW it was my daughter-in-law mostly...ha ha) got them for me. One tool I've drooled over for a couple of years is that wonderful bone folder you always use and recommend! Yay! The other tool is that marvelous, stupendous heat gun! I am queen of the craft room now! Ha ha! I have already tried it and am so impressed with how much better it is to use than my 20 year old heat gun! So...thanks so much for all you do. You teach us all how to be better at what we do and you save us tons of time and frustration :-) And like some of the others have mentioned, you certainly don't owe us an apology. It's like when a new book in a series...or a new sequel to our favorite movie...comes out! We wait with abated breath...until your next video! I will be keeping you and your family in prayer... that you will continue to find the time to teach us. God bless you!

[@silviathomas3224]

Dear Jennifter, I believe that you do not have to worry if anyone is watching. In fact who is not watching, is the question! The whole crafting world watches your videos. You seem such a lovely warm and caring person who has followed her passion and opened up the world of card making to a generation. I find your videos inspirational and when I am feeling down or not knowing what to do I watch one of your organisational videos! and then I either am motivated to create or organize. Thanks for sharing.

[@deb1623]

Please keep creating videos and never worry about whether or not someone will see them--we do! I often go back and watch several of them MANY times, sometimes from beginning to end , sometimes just in part. Older videos even meet my needs or inspire me, too. Thanks for all of the planning and hard work you put into each and every one!

[@tanyaperrin1218]

Am I the only person who heaves a heavy sigh as I open these videos knowing that they will be amazing AND contain lots of awesome goodies that I need to purchase? lol I love so many of your recommendations and appreciate how detailed you are with your reviews. Any time I have tried one of your suggestions it has lived up to my expectations and truly helped me have an organized craft space.

[@sacconner]

I'm just part of a HUGE group of crafters that watch your videos. So Dear Jennifer, wonder no more about who is out here viewing your videos. WE ARE! Thank you for all you have done for this community of crafters and artists in the year 2017. You have made my world happier and much brighter with you beautiful soul and your beautiful talent. You have brought us into your home and made, at least me, feel a part of your wonderful family. Thank you for sharing Your Crafty Things of 2017, and may 2018 shed you with happiness, health and prosperity! You still ROCK, Jennifer! Shirley in Arizona

[@sincerelyyoursinvitationsb9827]

Jennifer, you have been my solace for the past two years. Crafting has always been my "safe place" as well as a happy one. As my health has declined, I have not been able to craft as much as I'd like. When my back pain is too much to bear, or my shortness of breath prevents me from hauling out my supplies, I simply turn to your KZbin channel and pass the hours watching you craft. It brings me so much comfort and joy to learn new things and watch you make gorgeous and heartfelt cards for others. It's good to know that there are still people in the world who want to share their kindness. You never need to feel pressured that a video is "late". It's not late to your viewers, just perhaps later than you intended. We are all thankful. And I laugh each time you apologize that a video was too long. Jennifer, sometimes I watch for a couple of hours or more! The longer, the better! This particular video is close to my heart. I have a need to organize things to death! Lol...I make lists...and lists referencing lists. Take care Jennifer. I wanted you to know how much impact you have on others. Very positive impact. I am grateful you do what you do!

[@mudmaven1951]

Your videos are always the first things I look at when you post. I want to thank you so very much for all that you share with the rest of us. Believe me, there are a great many folks that watch and benefit greatly from your videos and all the wonderful techniques and products you share with us. Thank you so much!

[@barbaradonaldson2774]

Hats off to you Jennifer...I love your storage organizing ideas. I have adopted your stamp and die storage system and some others also. You are such a inspiration to me. I suffer from AADHD. Adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and like you I like to stay busy. I have been trying to organize my craft room and I find a lot of your ideas work for me also. It's been a real pleasure watching your videos and seeing all the card ideas that you come up with. Thank you so much and God bless you.💌

[@rhoz5191]

Organizing is the hardest and your ideas help so much. Have watched and followed you a long time. Saw your lovely previous craft room. We never get tired of your suggestions even if repeated from other years. PLEASE give a tour of your craft room as part of organization ideas. We love to see where you work and organize!

[@barblibrarian]

Thank you for talking about your anxiety and how crafting helps you. Many of us share that issue and it is so important not to keep it in the dark or be ashamed. I have not thought to keep my hands busy with crafting while out and about, but since you mentioned it, I am going to give it a try. I so admire you, Jennifer. You mean a lot to your fans, and you inspire us daily!

[@spdybug]

You are my organizational idol. And my card idol. Hells bells I might even start stitching this year!!!! Truly, Jennifer, I thank you for everything you do. You have helped me so much since I started my card-making craft. Now I cannot imagine my life without it. From card inspiration, supplies and organization - you do it all for me!! I also wanted to share how I spread the joy. I keep a couple of drawers in my big Ikea unit that is expressly for kids. In the drawer I have a big bunch of those pre-printed watercolor cards by Susie, several inexpensive watercolor kits, a set of Tombow markers, etc. When kids come over I bring them into the craft room and let them loose. Yesterday we had a handyman come over and he had to bring his daughter - for which he apologized. I said no need to be sorry and I asked 7-year old Brooke (who was going to play with a little Nintendo thing) of she would like to craft. Her eyes lit up when I took her in my craft room. I showed her the drawers, pulled up a chair (I always have 2 chairs in the room) and she was SOOO happy for 2 1/2 hours. She came and got me when she had questions (I was in another room on the computer doing work). And she ended up making two pictures that were beautiful! Her father was so tickled and happy that she was having so much fun. What a great experience all around. One time when she came and asked me a question and I went into the craft room with her she looked at me and said in a little tiny voice "You are very, very nice." My heart grew 3x. I wish you and your loved ones a very healthy, happy and peaceful New Year!

[@terriconrad2977]

Jennifer, never apologize for being late! You are a work horse who also has a family to take care of. Your followers are all deeply appreciative for your time, effort and willingness to share it all!! Thank you! As I'm getting older I find that I too, have a bit of anxiety, and crafting helps me chill out. I just need to get better organized! I've got a large room in our basement but need better storage! I so appreciate all your ideas and recommendations!! This isn't my job, just a hobby, so I have to watch the spending.... So thanks for those tips as well! Blessings to you and your family this new year! You are appreciated!! 😊💕

[@annehartschlag]

Another great video on how to stay organized. Your tips are so helpful whether we have a big craft room or a small area. I don't think you ever have to wonder about who is watching your videos because all anyone has to do is mention the name "Jennifer" and everyone know who you are talking about. For years I have been taking things with me to create when on the go. I usually cross stitch on the go and it is such a help to me. This year I am facing another cancer diagnosis and crafting is my therapy to keep sane. My craft room is my little bit of heaven where I can escape and forget the rest of the world is still on its axis and it is so helpful when things are more of an organized mess. Thank you for your time and sharing your talent and I hope 2018 is a blessed year for you and your family.

[@stanky6261973]

You have brightened my day/late late night, when I can't sleep, due to pain. You are by far the most talented, most organized, most humble, most caring person I've ever seen on KZbin. Thank you for everything that you buy, try and approve of, then, you show us where to buy it, use it and store it. One day, when I'm able to walk again I'm going to implement your organizing techniques to straighten out all of my craft supplies. I keep buying supplies that I'm not able to use, because right now, I'm not able to move around. I keep buying supplies because, at some point, everything is discontinued! I also suffer from ptsd. So when I have to go to the doctor, I would like to look busy, so that people wouldn't come over to me and freak me out. I hope everything is alright with your family (you were upset and apologizing, which is not necessary) May God bless you and your loved ones. Happy new year. Stay safe

[@KathySparkle1]

stanky6261973 Blessings to you, your pain, inability to walk for now, etc. I applaud your efforts to occupy yourself with the wonderful world of crafting. Jennifer is The Best. I also suffer from chronic pain, etc., and have supplies but haven’t done much yet. You wrote so eloquently and I thought I would send healing vibes to you. ❤️🙏🏻

[@LilCraftyNook]

stanky6261973 So sorry about your health issues.😢 Bless you!

[@stanky6261973]

To Harmony and Nikki, thank you so much, for the blessings and good vibes, I'm praying for you both. May God bless you and heal you and your loved ones. :). Stay safe.

[@cloudz10LA]

I am thrilled I found your channel. I don’t do a lot of papercrafts, but our beading group has decided to move in that direction and I am finding it fascinating, thus why I tripped over to you. It is great to learn what a professional uses, saves steps and money with trial and error. Plus I love your nail polish color, grey is one of my favorite colors. Thank you for all you share with us. God Bless.

[@dottiewilliams5618]

Thank you, Jennifer! I love your videos and appreciate the time you take to share what you have learned with others. Have watched all of you “My Favorite Crafty Things” each year and find them so helpful.

[@titamatos633]

I look forward to this series everyyear. I don't do cards, but enjoy watching you!

[@gerberagirl5]

Jennifer, thank you for taking the time to share all these things with us. I know you don't have to do this, but we look forward to this every year and you know we buy a lot of what you recommend! We love you!!!

[@tammywhitley4657]

Jennifer you never have to apologize for getting a video out later than planned. Especially this time of year!!! We all know that your family comes first and we don't expect you to spend your precious family time with us doing videos!!!! We love you no matter how behind you get!!! This was a great video, I loved it. I have been watching your videos for a while now and love how they change each year!!! You have great information and ideas. Its nice to find someone that is as OCD about crafting and organization as I am. Thank you Jennifer for all that you do. It is a privilege being part of your video family and blessed that you spend so much time with us. You thank us for being part of your little corner, but I feel like we need to thank you each day for doing so much for us!! So.....Thank you for everything and all your wonderful videos that you gave us in 2017, I can't wait to see what 2018 brings!!! Blessings to you and your family for the coming year. I pray that your family stays well and healthy and all your dreams come true. God Bless......

[@annettepearce6996]

Time spent watching your videos is always time well spent. Thank you for all the work you do in sharing and inspiring.

[@ritafadams]

Thank you , Jenifer, for taking time to share your organizational system. So many great ideas.

[@patacan7]

Ah, lots of great ideas. The black and decker right in the craft room, that is a yes, my 2018 addition! Thank you Jennifer!

[@sophiemurray6215]

I’m so impressed with everything you do, and i think we all appreciate the work that goes into it, and how you manage to be a mom and keep the whole show on the road. I just wanted to say how i love that you feel safe enough to say you find it easier to deal with ,what potentially to you, could be a difficult social situation, and hats off to you. I like to do just the same, but it is to cope with chronic illness and pain that goes with it. I find keeping busy, creative etc is literally my lifeline, and by doing this hardly anyone knows exactly what I’m masking, which I’m sure is the same for you. You come across as such an accomplished, talented, together , saint of a girl, its hard to believe you have such anxieties to deal with. You certainly have an army of admirers, who would fight your corner if anyone said a half critical word against you. We’ve all loved your championing of Share kindness, anti bullying etc, and i think you’d be amazed at the numbers of housebound or ill people, or recovering from illness that you give succour to. You imagination knows no bounds. If i had to have one rankle with you, and that is that you say your not artistic, perhaps not in the traditional drawing sense, but you are a creative to your core. I just want to say thank you for all you share and do, and may 2018 be a year of great things for you. Sophie in Scotland

[@terriconrad2977]

Sophie Murray right on target!!! Thank journey for expressing this so beautifully for us all! Blessings to you this new year! Terri in Colorado

[@Happybidr]

Sophie is totally right. That is my story, too! I can’t work, so crafting is my sole productivity outlet. I’m primarily a quilter, but I love paper crafts, and I LOVE your channel. Between your creativity (and frankly, your husband’s invention of the ThermaCare product which helps me survive each day), I am able to squeak out a life worth living. Never forget that the work you are doing has GREAT meaning for many, many people. Seriously. I have three family members who also experience anxiety, so I spend a lot of time trying to understand and help them be successful. And I also use the tools you suggest to help them and to make a calm, loving home for them. There is something about having a Mom there (or your friend’s Mom who is your second Mom) always there working on making a loving, helpful home that makes them feel welcome and free to open up about what is worrying them. We installed some built-ins years ago in a room open to the den so I can always be there and available to see what the neighborhood teens are doing who loved to hang around our home. It seems like most of them also have anxiety so just having my craft and sewing space there gave me an excuse to be around the group and build relationships with each of them. I didn’t know much of anything about papercrafts but I learned a lot from you, and that helped me in helping them. So thank you for that! I noticed it helped them learn to be generous, too, and that helped so much with their own challenges. Plus, I got lots of wonderful Mother’s Day gifts!

[@sylviag3576]

What a nice way to start off 2018, the Rose Parade and your video! My you and your family be blessed this year, may the Lord guide you in all you do. A big thank you to you Jennifer!

[@cwest496]

One best thing that I like about your videos is that any crafter can pick and choose to their own creative style, needs and budget. Even senior citizens like me. =) Through your guidance I have been able to recreate a fun craft space, update my ink pads along with color swatches, purchase stamps that I absolutely love, learn new techniques and most of all be a part of a wonderful card making community! Again, many thanks for all you do and am wishing you a wonderful Happy New Year! =)

[@dianamatlock6832]

Thank you for taking the time to make these informative and detailed videos. I fins that there is a vast amount of information I need to store in my pea brain, so your videos being labeled as they are, make it easy for me to refer back as needed. Thank you again. Diana Matlock

[@geraldinequinonez902]

Oh My Goodness - excellent video and video series!!! As if your creativity doesn't already inspire so many of us, you willingly (and gratefully) invite us in to your storage techniques!!! You are awesome and I appreciate watching you create and your inspiration. Thank you!

[@beverleesagon1843]

Jennifer I want you to know I found you on KZbin last January. I watch all your videos I can't wait for the next video to come out. Several times I will create something as close to identical as you do to learn from you or I will make several if I love it. This is the first year I can watch this series as you produce them. It was so much fun to do. I love your give always because I can understand what to do they aren't so complicated that I don't try to enter. My time like all is precious. So want to Thank You and to let you know I have learnt a lot from you.

[@suehy4054]

Yes, we ‘re here, listening, learning, and enjoying! Thank you!

[@evelynwald9132]

Thank you so much. As always, you provide such good tips that are truly useful. My favorite one in this video was for the Brother P-touch. I got one for my sister and was learning it for her so that I could teach her some tricks and to save her time from having to read the manual while visiting with her over the holidays. Like you, I was frustrated by the waste. Your "chain" tip will be something that I will share with her. I hope that you have a wonderful 2018, making videos for fans like me and getting time to spend with your own family.

[@stacyroberds1421]

Thanks again for another great video, Jennifer! You surely make the world feel a little sweeter and safer, which is invaluable in these times of turmoil and violence. Heartfelt wishes for a healthy and joyful 2018!

[@copicqwn]

I always look forward to this series.. Happy New Year to you and your family/loved ones.. All of us crafters appreciate your time, your effort, and especially your kindness. We love you hear on KZbin, Instagram, Facebook and anywhere else you may happen to be. Looking forward to 2018

[@kathycresswell8353]

Jennifer - I love ALL of your videos, but really enjoy your Crafty Things series. It's so much fun to see all the different products available and ways to store them. I so appreciate all of the effort you put into your work. I've learned so many techniques and tips from you and always look forward to your videos. So thank you for sharing your time, talent, inspiration and kindness, and happiest of new year's to you and your family!

[@MaryK-iw9xo]

Thanks, Jennifer. I’ve purchased many things that you have recommended over the years. Your clear descriptions make it easy to decide if the item is something I could use. Thank you for all of the time you put into making these videos. Happy New Year!

[@janarnold7241]

I love these videos. Organization does not come naturally to me, so I really appreciate all the tips. But, the whole series is fabulous. I appreciate all the time you must put into these to show us different tools, inks, stamps, dies, stencils and stuff! I always learn something new and quite often am reminded of something that had caught my attention momentarily that I had wanted to try. Your videos are truly the best of the stamping/card-making videos that I have seen and I am always thrilled when I see there's a new installment! You have educated me in my favorite craft and my cards reflect that. Thanks so much, Jennifer!

[@jalh3]

Wonder no more Jennifer, I'm one who follows you and respects the heck out of what you do, how you do it, and your guiding values. Thank you, from KZbin land, lol. I hope you and family have a wonderful, healthy and happy 2018!

[@carolestrawn8755]

Saw so many "must haves" in this video. I love organization. Your craft room is my ultimate dream. Great video and very helpful.

[@jaline9091]

From the heart thank you so very much. May 2018 be your best year ever and less anxiety. You are loved.

[@cre8vmama]

I ADORE your videos and get so much useful info from you! I’m sorry to hear that you struggle w/anxiety. You always look like you have it all together! I have PTSD & also struggle w/anxiety from that. I want to let you know how much your sharing about crafting on the go has helped me too! Thanks for being you!!💗💪🏼💗

[@jennifermcguireink]

hugs!

[@2marelle]

Thank you so much, Jennifer! I always learn so much from each of your videos. Your videos and voice help keep my own anxiety at bay! All the best to you and your loved ones in 2018 and always!

[@alisongrey4527]

I am! I am watching these videos! So much good information and such useful, inspiring card ideas. Of course, you are also responsible for my single-handedly trying to support each of these stamping companies! Thanks for all your hard work, your clear and concise videos, and the links to products used. With so few brick-and-mortar card-making shops left, I and many others like me are grateful for your online step by step instructions and lovely concepts.

[@glennistrotman8421]

I watch all your videos, I have been crafting for only a few years and I learn heaps from your videos.

[@ruththomas3853]

I really enjoy all of your videos, but lately I have been loving your organization ones. They have been so helpful to me, and one day I have hopes to actually getting my space organized! I am nowhere in your league, but I really enjoy making cards, etc. One thing I wish you would do is to show us some wider shots, especially of your shelves, etc. I am a very visual person, and it would help me so much to see how your IKEA drawers and the 5 drawer units, etc.

[@mlfett6307]

Happy New Year! Yes, I have the bins, and the Avery Elle pouches as well. For my dies, I print out the brand, product number and name of the die on the paper I use as an insert for the pouch. In the back of the paper I put the die(s) (sometimes with the magnetic sheet) and on the front I glue a sample of the die's cut out, (under the label) so I know exactly what it would look like. I have a lot of dies, so this has been quite the project. Some dies are still in CD cases, and others are in clear shallow theme bins on my Dies shelves. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your time and ideas with us...you have one of the best production styles I have seen for instructional videos!

[@sampool2011]

Hi Jennifer. I’m Linda from the UK. I just want to say how much I have enjoyed your videos. It’s such a treat when I get a notification to say a new one has been added. You have totally inspired me to organise my craft room, and this is my big plan for 2018 ! Following on from your most recent video, and thanks to your recommendation, I have just ordered a Brother label printer, and it’s due to be delivered on Friday. My first step to being organised !! Thank you so much for the time and effort you put in. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us in 2018. Happy New Year. Best wishes Linda (Manchester, England).

It's 12:12 am in Australia could not sleep. So happy to find your video Jennifer. Thank so much.

[@cindyroman-daversa9194]

Thank you, Jennifer. I’ve become a better crafter because I follow your lead...with organizing, techniques and pure enjoyment. Happy New Year to you and your family!

[@craftereverafter]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOU DO & SHARE WITH US!!! And, don't appologize for this video being "late"...so appreciative of the time and effort you put in to all you do. Have a wonderful 2018!

[@cindihanley7053]

The great organization craft stash storage solutions could not have come at a better time for me. For 2018 organizing my supplies is top on my list. I’ve taken notes and plan to get to work immediately- thank you so much. Great products, love them all. Step 1 are the stamp and die folders and containers. Happy New Year!

[@mariannejakobsen2177]

Thank you for sharing that you suffer from anxiety and how you cope with it. I know the struggle. Thank you for all your great tips and for the card videos in 2017 ❤️

[@barbborja1910]

Jennifer, thank you so much for everything that you do. Please know that the time, effort, and expertise you put into your videos is greatly appreciated. Happy New Year to you and your beautiful family.

[@Kitchensurprise]

Thank you for all your tips. I have been using the frig bins with the storage pockets and just recently bought the sequin container after searching some of your past videos. It’s great that I can find all these ideas in one place now!

[@deborahscoza1443]

Happy 2018 Jennifer!! I’m one of the thousands watching you and so appreciate your videos and crafty talent you share with us!! God Bless!

[@leenewton5872]

Thank you so much, This is my favorite of your "crafty things" videos because being more organized is my dream. : ) I'm working on it. And the pieces that work have been your suggestions like the stamp storage pockets. I am so grateful you put so much time and thought into these. I really love watching them!

[@luv3pugs]

We love you Jennifer McGuire. Just look at all the views, thousands and all the comments. We all strive to be as organized as you. If you tell me a product works I’m going with it. Love the mini ink holders.

[@nancysmith5259]

Jennifer you have outdone yourself with this video. I didn’t think the organization could get any better. Once again, I need to shop!! Love your supplies and suggestions. I learn so much from you. I have the same Brothers Label Maker and never knew I could do some of the things you showed. Thank you for giving us such wonderful ideas for our crafting. May 2018 bring you and your family blessings of health, love, and happiness.

[@terryhanna4184]

Jennifer, you are awesome! I never respond to a video unless I am really really compelled to do so! I just want to say that I have learned so much from you. I love the way you present and teach. So for the year of 2018, I thank you in advance for all you will bring to me! Thank you so much! Wishing many blessings to you and yours! Tess

[@rmixson247]

Thank you for sharing your favorite things. I got the vacuum this year for Christmas. I hope to make good use with it, in trying to keep my desktop cleaner in my craft room. Thank you for all your wonderful videos and taking the time to share new ideas and what works for you.

[@pwolf8337]

Thank you so much for this organizational video. I am going to use your advice for stamps and paper. I have had so much trouble making those look organized which is a hinderance to making cards. Next it will be the stamp pads. Once those three things are done, I think all my other things will take shape easily. I also love that you help us with ideas to use what we have in so many ways. I appreciate your honesty, integrity in recommending products and creativity.

[@hyperni7]

I watch all your wonderful videos but I don't really use KZbin comments, however I just had to post today, thank you for always sharing your inspiring creativity, be assured there are plenty of us watching and using your ideas to help our own creative projects. Organising is one of my favourite parts of crafting and I love my label maker too! Happy new year to you! :D

[@fancifulfuncrafts9412]

A lot of great tips, I definitely plan to use some of them. I enjoy and appreciate all of your videos. I especially appreciate the fact that you give us a list of the items and where we can get them. Thanks so much for all you time and effort! ~ Peggy Smith

[@rhandidemars8164]

Thank you so m uch for the time and effort that you put into these videos. Please don't apologize for being late getting this out. You are doing a service for us. I hope that you and your family have a Blessed and incredibly awesome New Year. You are just the best

[@angelajennings9401]

You’re a very special, sharing and caring lady. I love watching your utubes and how your crafty and super organised mind works! I always get good ideas from you. Thank you so much and have a safe and Happy New Year.

[@deedeekoch6839]

You do an absolutely beautiful job in each and every one of your videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all you do!

[@dmaynardabu]

I just wanted to take the time to say Thank you for all of your amazing videos!! You put a lot of time and effort into making these videos for us. Please know that it is greatly appreciated! I use your stamp and die organization system and it is by far the best way to store them and keep them organized. I hope you and your family had a very Merry Christmas and I wish you all a Blessed New Year!

[@hollybeach8393]

Jennifer, thank you for your hard work in sharing with us all of your wonderful ideas. Your videos always inspire me, and I want you to know they were my inspiration for getting into card making. I too suffer anxiety, and crafting helps control it much better. Thank you for your kindness and your inspiration, and have a Happy New Year!

[@maggiebaxter610]

I'm sure I speak for many (M.A.N.Y!) when I say that we'd be lost without you. When a notification pops up in my feed (or when I obsessively look for one!) it's "Happy Time!" You've shared family, trials and tribulations with us and you feel like family we've chosen to love. My craft room is much better organized thanks to you and I couldn't agree more when you say the folks at Organize More not only have fabulous, well-built, quality products but they really couldn't be nicer. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video and I hope your New Year is filled with peace, love and many blessings. ~HUGS~ #kindnessmatters

[@susanp9097]

Thank you for everything! I love, love to look at your stash! It's like looking at a store. I understand it's your business and so appreciate your inspiration. I look forward to 2018. Also love your husband's press and seal idea!

Jennifer, thank you for taking the time to prepare your favorite crafty things videos! I have gotten so many ideas from them. I hope you have a happy 2018!

[@annaknobloch]

Thank you so much for all the great ideas for storage and organization. I'm always looking for new and better ways to store my supplies. I have gotten so many ideas from you over the years and all have worked well for me too. Hope you have a wonderful New Year!

[@cherylbook885]

Love these video. I watch over and over. I am an organizer freak so these are nice. You already did the work for us. We just need to purchase them using you links.

[@trishhall5504]

Thank you for these videos. I so appreciate the time you devote to inform others of all of the crafty goodness out there. Hope you have a blessed 2018!!

[@sharonmesdag7687]

I understand how much time you put into your videos and greatly appreciate all the work you do and all the information I receive. Last year I was able to take a fairly large room and create the craft room of my dreams. Recently my granddaughter and daughter moved in with us. I somehow forgot how much stuff they have, especially when they are the only granddaughter/niece in the family. everyone keeps trying to outdo the others with larger toys. Now it's time to give my granddaughter a playroom and redo my small office into a craft room ounce again. Your ideas and suggestions will help me do this. If you ever have ideas for inexpensive storage items in Canada I would love to hear them.Thanks again and Happy New Year.

Happy New Year from Moscow! There's no snow here, which is unbelievable. Love everything you do! In fact I re-watch your videos often:) Thank you so much for everything you do! It's inspiring to see someone so dedicated and still quite sane:). And your organizational skills leave me speechless every time. My mind boggles and then topples:) I wish you and your family happiness and joy in 2018! С Новым годом!

[@marywoodbridge2675]

This being my first year crafting. I’ve relied heavily on videos to teach me. Yours have been very helpful. Thank you for sharing.

[@cazee100]

Thank you Jennifer for all the amazing helpful and inspirational videos you share. You are a truly kind lady and I am so thankful for you. Happy New year too to you and your beautiful family. xx

[@donnaokoniewski3761]

Thank you for all your expertise and sharing throughout 2017. You produce excellent, informative and professional videos that are pure gold! Wishing you and your family a healthy and prosperous New Year!

[@DW-sw7et]

Since the first time I have seen these series, I have purchased your recommendations. I'm at a point where I want to redo my craft room and get the Alex drawer units. I actually have the Bible Journaling bag that you feature here because they were out of the previous one you showed. You are my favorite channel to watch! Happy New Year! May God bless you and your family in 2018!

[@paulaaddison546]

As always a great video on your favorite things. Organization is key to success and you are clearly an expert on this subject. Glad your health/back is better. I look forward to many of your projects in 2018 to inspire me to color and create ♥

[@tammychapman-pavlik6800]

So happy your starting the new year great. I love your video's the keep me organized and calm. Your voice just does that for me. Thank you for sharing a big part of your life with us. May God bless you and your family this 2018.

[@loriaragon2644]

Thank you, Jennifer. I look forward to every one of your videos! God bless you ❤

[@karenkirkman4723]

Thanks so much Jennifer! I love this series of videos no matter when you do them. I have used lot's of your organization ideas.

[@Jana-TheCraftyGambler]

Happy New Year to you and your family! I just wanted to thank you for all of your beautiful card ideas. I have recently gotten into card making and largely in thanks to you and your beautiful work. I love your teaching style and you have inspired me to try things I would have never done before. Thanks again, and I hope you have an awesome 2018!

[@jessicastull6013]

Jennifer, thank you so very much for this wonderful video. I love organization like you do. I can't create unless everything is organized. I always look forward to you tips on organization becuase they are always so helpful. I know there is a lot of work involved in making these videos and I want you to know how much a appreciate them. Thank you so much!!!

[@lindarauch3269]

Thanks for all the tips. I found you can use magnetic vent cover to hold dies. They are not quite as strong, but they do work . They are also inexpensive and easy to cut to the size you need. You can get them at any big box hardware store.

[@jdtraub]

Calendar refrigerator magnets distributed by local realtors work too.

[@marilynm2661]

I found previous year calendar magnets on eBay for a reasonable price, too!

[@Ebbie08]

I buy magnet sheets meant for pictures from Dollarama. I cover an entire 12x12 cardboard with magnet sheets and put 7+ of them in Michaels’ 12x12 plastic boxes with handles. It’s their Everyday Value for $5 I think?

[@sincerelyyoursinvitationsb9827]

I love Tonic Studios Die Storage Cases for stand alone dies...Medium is my favorite size so I can have several binders dedicated to specific themes. I do use one Large Case though to store Spellbinders. I purchase extra magnets/sleeves so I can double the magnets in each sleeve b/c the magnet sheets are not quite strong enough for my liking...I don't like my dies to slide around, even though the case zips. For stamps with dies, I use Close To My Heart 6" "Paper Stack Envelopes". They are extremely well made. I place a piece of cardstock between the stamps and dies. The dies are placed on 60mm magnet sheets from Magnet Valley (on Amazon). Though with the new large stamp sets/dies, I am having a little difficulty. Right now, I use A4 size Plastic Envelopes from Office Depot. They have a pocket on the back where I place photos of inspiration using that specific set. Hmmm...sounds like I have a bit of this and that here and there. Maybe I need to streamline.

[@LilCraftyNook]

I bought a certain length of magnetic sheet off a roll from Tap Plastic. A little harder to cut straight, but inexpensive.

[@helenbudz3966]

Thanks for a fabulous video, Jennifer. I'm always grateful for organization ideas. It is so helpful to know what's new and what's tried and true. Happy New Year!

[@judywheeler8734]

Unbelievably organized with such great ideas! Thank you so much.

[@dorasanchez5075]

Happy New Year, Jennifer. I love your videos and like that you share with all of us your favorite tools and supplies. Because of you I subscribed to Simon Says and I buy stuff from Amazon too because I had bad experiences with some vendors. My budget is small so I go for maximum order amount to save on shipping. I love to make cards. You keep me inspired. Thanks

[@ramzaaslam1182]

Don't be sorry. And i thank you for introducing me to an amazing world of art. I love your videos, i really appreciate your efforts and humbleness, and all the hard work you do. Because of you i started to do crafts and other art stuff some time ago and it was a great help( i didn't knew this could be an amazing therapy for me). I used to draw, make 3d things and do all those fun things as kid but i forgot as i grew. I'm 21 now. I wanted to tell you all of this because we should appreciate & encourage others. Love you Jennifer aapi😁😁😁😙😙😙😙😙😙😙💝💝💝💝💝 your fan from Pakistan P.s 'aapi' means elder sister in urdu

[@78Kimberli]

Thank you so much for this amazing series you take so much time to do each year. It is always such a helpful series and one I look forward to each year❤️

[@jenniferwilliams3128]

Hi Jennifer, Thanks for this video AGAIN. I keep trying different ways to organize but none of them seem to really work. I started trying your ideas step by step and then I moved, so I am starting again and this time I am going to make it work. I am so grateful for your ideas. Crafting supplies are expensive and I want to protect them but mostly, I want to use them so I need to be able to FIND them. Thanks again and I will let you know how it goes!

[@BeverlyJordanblog]

WOW!!! I am doing the clear storage like you because of you but don't have that many. Thanks for the tips!

[@beverlyparkison8758]

And it means a lot to us that you take the time to do this. Happy New Year to you and yours.

[@sophiemsmply4you572]

Thanks so much for these ideas. I unfortunately move around a lot so find it difficult to have great storage. I really appreciate all your ideas.

[@odell2100]

Jennifer, THANK YOU for all of your time and effort creating Your Favorite Things video series. I have been watching them and taking many notes! I just watched your Organization one (I had to skip ahead for this one I was so excited), and just placed an order with Amazon for a couple of things. I had already switched over my stamp and die storage to your method, but I have to complete all my labeling with my label maker yet, but would like to also implement some of your other ideas that I can do right now in the space that I am working with (hopefully a new craft room is in my future). I hope your back is better, and that you and your family had a wonderful Holiday Season! Happy New Year!!!! -Stacy

[@paulettemiller5066]

Thank you for sharing! It is greatly appreciated! It is a lot of work you do to share and it is not wasted! Looking forward to many more videos! May you have a blessed New Year!

[@P1DiscoGina]

JENNIFER!!! Omigosh! I can't even say how freaking excited I am about the label maker! I have that model and cry every time I cut & toss the extra, unused label! I have tried fiddling with settings to reduce the waste, but never get it right. CHAIN! That's the ticket! Thanks for everything in this episode, but especially the label trick! You are my personal hero for the first day of 2018! 💞 🎉 💞 🙌🏽

[@topcropper]

Jennifer, You knocked it out of the park 🤣 ( I know cheesy) with another great MFCT Series! A big thanks to you, I’m totally obsessed with Gina K products, Stamp TV & she is awesome 😉. I really appreciate you & all your time & effort it takes to make the videos & this series you bring to us every year! You are amazing ! May you & your sweet family have a blessed 2018!!
