Tidy-Up Tuesday: Craft Room Organization with Lauren Hinds // My Favorite Craft Room Organizer

[@janinebemiller9618]

Finally got to finish this you tube video and So my take away is that I need a cart and lots of pocket pages. Never thought I would finish my daughters album! What a fantastic idea ! What an amazing crafter and organizer you are! Love love the bear organization. Has saved so many headaches ❤️

[@paigedial3445]

So glad you went over peek a boo pockets How am I just learning about these...hellloooo amazing I need these. Love it thank you for going over these

[@a_paper_passion]

Those rolling carts are fabulous! When I bought mine a couple of years ago, my husband loved it so much that he went and bought one for his garage. My daughters each have one in their rooms for their cosmetics. The possibilities are endless! Thank you for sharing so many tips and tricks. I enjoyed your video!

[@dmrcm]

WOW, so much! Need to get organized.

[@CraftSomeJoy]

You can do it!

[@julieharden158]

I’m loving your new series. How fantastic to see things you have tried and that will help others to get more organised. Thanks Lauren xx

[@pdavis591]

OMG Lauren! I definitely feel your flood pain! I only had 1 inch of water in my house due to a broken toilet supply line and 6 months later I am still dealing with the rebuild and fallout. This has been one of the most awful experiences of my life! So sorry for your pain and loss!

[@judyljones6257]

Lauren this is going to be a VERY popular series. I guarantee it! Brilliant Lady! My husband was here in the living room for enough of your video to let me point out to him that I have way less product than you do. LOL. Thank you for the contrast eh? I know I can still create beautiful scrapbooks without your beautiful craft room. But it’s still fun to see yours In your videos. Thank you for sharing! ❤

[@CraftSomeJoy]

😂 Yes I have quite a bit in my collection!

[@colleenbartzsch782]

Thank you so much for this first show in the series! I am looking forward to hearing about all of your organizing strategies for what works for you and what doesn't work. I am trying not to covet your crafting room too much! LOL! You have shared so many great ideas and I look forward to seeing what you do with your memorabilia. Mine is such a mishmash right now.

[@wvugrad81]

I need to reorganize my cart with "most used" in mind. Thanks, Lauren!

[@lgreer2010]

I was so excited to come across this new series of yours, Lauren! I’m new to your KZbin channel- Since Early Sept of this year. I’ve watched the POP series at least 2x and your paper organizing KZbin series- I’ve also joined the POP group and hope to watch it live this month! I am making progress in the organizing stages. I have a brand new scrapbook room that was finished in June…. I love it but was having a hard time organizing it…. That’s how I came upon your KZbin videos. I was looking for help and I found you!!! Thank you for all of this! Just like others, I’m really looking forward to next Tuesdays paper storage lessons!!!

[@sloitz]

This is so exciting and awesome to see your space and thinking process through using all the various organization items. Your right, organizing your crafts is a science in and of itself and although overwhelming, just as fun. Thank you for sharing!

[@angelrogers1758]

I love your smaller clean bins. I have a bunch of the 12x12 but I bet those smaller ones come in handy.

[@kayhahn5551]

I just bought a cart and loved seeing how you organized yours. Gave me lots of ideas. I am just getting my scrap room in order so this series is going to help me a lot!

[@terri5221]

I love my cart that I purchased from IKEA years ago. I also have store my cutting system and 12"cutter in the 2nd shelf because I use this cart to scrap in rooms besides my craft room/home office. I had the little bins that hang over the side BUT have never seen the long narrow one - heading to Michael's now - thanks for the great idea!!

[@thedomesticfox717]

Loved all of this. I still have some old school Iris drawer cart with the sorters on top…but you have me thinking I need to ask Santa for a new cart for Christmas. Looking forward to next week with the paper organizing.

[@cynthiaslebodnik6945]

You were talking about the old albums, I have a quandary. I started my younger son's life book in an 8x10 open back album. I'm hoping the pages will fit into the 12x12 album, that the hooks line up.

[@lorikorstanje2964]

Looking forward to this

[@CraftSomeJoy]

Thanks Ella~

[@natalieshimonek5108]

Hi! I have 4 of those type of carts, plus 5 totally tiffany carts (different styles). Lots of supplies,all very organized!

[@lindalawrence5975]

[@lorikorstanje2964]

Wonderful

[@CraftSomeJoy]

[@paigedial3445]

Just love you and so inspired to get back to scrapbooking Subscribed and if I could hit that like button 50 times I would have to all your great tips and ideas.

[@neliparadon8590]

Glad to meet you, I’m from Canada

[@nancycastleberry1273]

This is phenomenal! So many things to rethink within my small space

[@thecrazylifeandtimesofacra2629]

im just starting my crafting journey and just put a room together its been a real work in progress im sure i dont have it right and will change it a hundred times more yet im just so glad to have my own space i really want a cart but i dont have one yet i did buy a stack and carry for my candle making supplies till i get my burner for my craft room i have to carry that stuff to stove im getting an electric burner soon for in there

[@CraftSomeJoy]

sounds like a good journey to be on! enjoy the process!

[@bevrichardson4900]

Watching this again from Australia as now have 3 craft trolleys (carts).. trying to find the cups for the side. Got round biggish ones from Spotlight and just found some magnetic ones at Officeworks which are on the way over next couple of days. Really like the narrow ones..but not found them yet.

[@cynthiaslebodnik6945]

I have limited space since I have 2 windows, a closet, a chimney that sticks out into the rooms, and electric baseboard heating units. I did take off the closet doors to give me an open space. An Ikea bookcase store my albums and a short bookcase to store unused albums. This room originally my older son's bedroom. He was KIA in Iraq, so the room has memorabilia like his foot locker under my work table, plus a painting of him on the wall. So I have no more room for storage. I do like my rolling cart, which I use to store border punches. Thanks for sharing your space.

[@jpfile319]

I really would like to get new Michaels cubes and drawer units. I like the new larger dimensions and I am sure the new unit drawers function better than the original models. Thank you for sharing. Very helpful! I also was the victim of a wet basement and need to re-organize and set up my room again.

[@saracrawford6523]

I'm a cart resister too. Not enough real estate in my craft room / home office to store a rolling cart when not in use, but getting all the tools off my craft table is tempting.

[@charlenesegot6294]

First time here and look forward to your ideas on organizing. Charlene from Bethpage NY

[@ljp34me]

Thanks Lauren, so informative as always. Ordered my cart and cups from Michael’s! ❤

[@CraftSomeJoy]

Hope you like it!

[@terrispinazza295]

Which rolling cart at Michaels? They had two sizes last time I was there looking at carts. Thanks

[@vickietunstill7466]

Terri, I believe it's the Lexington 3-Tier Rolling Cart (the regular size, not the mini). I'm going by the two "pipes" coming up the end of her cart. I have one of them and it measures 30.75" tall x 11.5" wide. It's only 29.99 and I really like it, but I can see I'm going to be spending more to get the cups, dividers and other things I need to organize my stuff. Organizing my craft room is always a work in progress, it seems.😁

[@kimweese5216]

Definitely sold me on a rolling cart too! 😊

[@judytanner6418]

A few years ago, I purchased a rolling cart to store my granddaughter's slime making supplies. All they had to do was roll it over to the table. Guess I will have to steal it since they have outgrown slime 🤣 I would like to see what you have in the plastic drawer carts? I use those since my space is only about 9x9. Yupper small but it works sometimes! Thank you for sharing.

[@bevrichardson4900]

Spotlight in Australia have the rolling cart

[@lisawilliams4202]

I am interested in setting up areas to "shop" my stuff as I go away from home to craft. When I retire I hope to craft in my room but for now I need organization to grab and go

[@guylainegould2429]

Hi Lauren I’ve been watching your videos and love the way you think for organization. I have a ? For you. I have quite a few of the Iris cases but the cubbyholes I have are from IKEA and they don’t fit in them. I like the way you have cubby holes under your counter/table as I would like to do so and store them there. Would you share which units/cubby holes I could purchase to do so? Thanks 😊

[@jo-annmaruszak9885]

I love knowing the size of the rooms.

[@jeanbristol7007]

hi from CT!

[@CraftSomeJoy]

👋🏻Jean!

[@jennyroberts1862]

I just tried using the pocket pages with the premier album.

[@jennyroberts1862]

Question on what you have used to trim the new 12x12 page protectors with to fit the old 12x12 albums?

[@mitzidify]

I have a “few” old albums! Do you have a video on trim new pages to fit old books. I saw the drawer for trimmed pages🙂

[@lindachrisco7257]

Hello from S.C.

[@jkmickle87]

What are the clear boxes that you use for your pens, foam dots, etc?

[@CraftSomeJoy]

They are from Creative Memories! Love them!! www.creativememories.com/user/laurenhinds just search for 5x7 photo box and cases!

[@deannamiddleton246]

Thank you for the incredible tour of your new scrapbook room. It is beautiful and I want to visit. I'm remodeling mine right now and I just sold all my IKEA Expedite units. Paint and trim are picked out and I need to order these today or tomorrow. When you placed your Michaels order for these, did you use any coupons? It looks like they are full price but won't let me use a coupon. I just thought since you ordered these; you may know. Free shipping is great if no coupons available on these.

[@denisekersey8120]

I am in the process of moving from a small room in the house to our garage. We have put ac/heat, electrical outlets all around the walls, and led lighting. but I stalled and wasn't sure what to do next. what to move/organize. I will have to find a separate way to store my pens, they are in caddies. Does this include Copic markers and other markers to store horizontally? i have plenty of storage i am refinishing. placing my dies in magnetic cases, and Rhinestones in binders.

[@lisajenrette1778]

I'm not seeing the 16x16 cubbies on the Michael's app. Do you know if they are only carried in certain stores? But I think if I wanted to order them online they would still be on the app

[@tiffanymoulton8592]

I was wondering what did you use for your table top?

[@hockeymom480az]

@Lauren, can you please post product link for the acrylic 12x12 drawers from Michael’s. Thanks!

[@dianebarnes484]

My two large problem areas are my punches (I don't have the space for the storage units you have) and stamps and dies.

[@paigedial3445]

Do you have a video just on the peek a boo pockets and how to use them. I need help and a how to....lol

[@marsuzie]

How do you organize your punches in the stampin up storage ? Alphabetically ?

[@neliparadon8590]

A do you get discount if you buy more cupboards from one place?

[@CraftSomeJoy]

I would just keep an eye out for Michael's sales! Good luck!

[@jo-annmaruszak9885]

I’m on KZbin from CT

[@CraftSomeJoy]

Welcome!

[@lynnepetri7074]

Hello Lauren

[@neliparadon8590]

My room is only like 8x8

[@jo-annmaruszak9885]

I see perfect. You should see mine. 😢

[@CraftSomeJoy]

😄 You are sweet!

[@debfaling]

Why are you suppose to store pens horizontal?

[@lisabuscemi212]

I struggle with having too much paper...

[@jo-annmaruszak9885]

Oh…. I am so sorry. In a craft room that is full of paper, rain is not your friend.

[@CraftSomeJoy]

it was heartbreaking!
