Thank you for showing some real use of simple organizers, bins and labels.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

You are very welcome Stephany!

[@bjquilts29]

The bag to hold the cords is brilliant.

Thank you!

Gorgeous space! Thank you for the inspiration. I love it all. You baby is so precious! 💝

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Thank you so much!

[@TamraHeathershawHart]

I love that you used LARGE printed labels, not little labels. I just realized watching this that one of the things that has slowed down my crafting is having to pick up each and every container and hold it right up to my face just to see what the (really cute but) small label says. Large labels like you used are a fantastic idea -- not only will I no longer have to bend clear over to see what's on the bottom shelf, I'll be able to easily spot the container I want from a distance and not waste time looking on each and every shelf for (for example) pipe cleaners. Thanks for sharing!

[@shannonskiptomylife]

So glad you got some inspiration Tamra!

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Oh Salem’s GiGi I am hoping big for you!

[@michiganlighthouse]

Some nice ideas here. Dollar Store has so many great things for organizing. I spotted a few of my favorites in your video. Just a quick note about your sound track that you may want to look into. I noticed that when you begin a sentence I can barely hear your voice, but by the time you end that phrase or sentence, you come across loud and clear. This happened throughout the entire video. I listen to lots of video and I've never heard that happen. I know nothing about sound equipment, so I can't even guess as to the cause. Thanks for putting this together. Hope you enjoy your new space.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Thanks so much for watching nancykk! Your feedback about the sound was really helpful.

[@Lucy-ff2et]

I noticed the same sound issue. Great tips. Didn't want to miss anything!

I am struggling to get my diy, crafts,etc organized I have a craft art nook my personal closet and finally granted a garage for big projects I can walk to. That being said the problem is deciding what can go to garage what needs to stay inside and be accessible, my mind gets scattered overwhelmed any advice is greatly appreciated. I love how you have labeled things organized your room. It looks amazing. Thank you for sharing.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Thanks for watching Misti! It really helped me to eliminate all crafts but at a max of three. For example: scrapbooking, knitting, & sewing. Put others away for awhile and then rotate. Let me know how it goes!

My craft room is in my living room. I live in a small apartment so I'm trying to find ways to store things with only one small closet. Thank you for the suggestions.

Yes! I have a box that I can wrap & put my wreath frames in; instead of leaving on the floor. Thank you. I just rearranged my room and purged. I need to craft my stash & not shop. Thanks.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Yeah for you Heather!! Hard work.

[@kyfarm]

I would put a thin tray across the front of the drawers instead of just place keeping with the small hors d'oeuvre trays at the back. One extra space for storage instead of dead space. Or just use those hors d'oeuvre trays in the front for small things.

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Great ideas kyfarm2016!

Great ideas. Here’s another one. My husband installed LED strips of lights from Lowes inside the front of closets around the doorway. They have a remote on/off and give great light.

[@ncbeachbumintx]

TFS.. I must give sone important advice that I learned from our builder.. we recently moved in to our new home. During the design process, I inquired as to why I was not given the option to add lights in any closets besides the master? I was told that it’s because areas that are small (most secondary bedroom closets, small laundry closets, linen closets etc) are not coded for lighting because of fires hazards. I asked about battery operated to be added after the build.. and was given the sane answer. Of course nobody is picking my after build decor.. but I was advised that our home owners insurance would not cover any damage to the home or contents. If I were to implement any lighting on my own. I wanted to share this info because I know as crafters, we are inventive and problem solvers.. I had no idea that there were regulations to dictated about closet lighting.. but seeing your video reminded me to share.. Thanks again for your organizing shares.. God Bless
