Keeping Your Craft Area Organized

While many of us enjoy hobbies and crafts, it can be difficult to create and maintain an organized crafting area. Click here for more organizing ideas for your home, office or garage. This is an even harder thing to do if you have only small space available. Have a look at these ideas and use the ones that work for you. Adapt them to suit your own needs and even use more than one idea together.

Containerize for Practicality

A container that’s large enough to contain everything you need for your craft is absolutely necessary. Using lots of little boxes creates even more clutter. The space you need will depend on what crafts you are doing. For example, a craft like papier mache uses glue, paste, paints, brushes etc. that all fit in a relatively small container, but sewing can spread out over an entire room if you let it! Small cabinets, particularly those with drawers attached, can fill the bill nicely. Buy these new or used, depending on your budget and taste.

Containers on wheels are great if you need to keep your supplies in a different place from you use them. Those clear plastic drawer units you find in hardware or home supply stores are excellent and come in different sizes.

Shelves can also convert a small area of a room into a craft corner. But you’ll still need to put containers on the shelves themselves and you’ll want ones that look nice. Without the boxes, the shelves will look untidy.

What’s your best craft location?

As with containers, this depends on the craft. If you are working on big sculptures with big tools, you may need a whole room or garage to work in. You may need an understanding spouse for this type of activity!

Some crafts take relatively little space and can be accommodated in the corner of a bedroom,living room, garage or basement. The space should be comfortable, or you’ll never go there. Stop any drafts and put in nice bright lighting. If you use electrical equipment, you’ll also need ready access to outlets and you don’t want cords stretched across a room as an invitation for you and others to trip.

Here’s an idea that’s a container and a workspace combined: an armoire or a big spacious wardrobe. A lady I know stores the supplies and works on two different crafts using just one big old wardrobe in her bedroom.

Using the right containers is the big secret to having a great, organized area for your craft or hobby.

As Basil Bunting wrote about Ezra Pound’s Cantos, “There are the Alps… you will have to go a long way round/if you want to avoid them.” Led Zeppelin’s work is the central fact of 1970s rock & roll; in its loving homage to and shameless piracy from the blues, its glorious and wretched excess, its transformation of hippie and folk-rock graces into a foundation-shaking kaboom, and its offhanded myt…

Although they were probably the band that most transformed rock from a singles medium to an album-oriented form, the Beatles also released many singles and EP tracks that never made it onto albums. In the U.S., Capitol turned the group’s early LPs, through Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, into compilations, more or less, throwing the hit singles onto the vinyl to augment the album tracks. Wh…

While his recording career only lasted a little more than six years (’66-’71), Duane Allman’s playing was heard not only with the Allman Brothers Band, but on a variety of important records by other artists as well. Hence this posthumous 1972 double-album collection, which–besides five Allman Brothers tracks–includes many memorable solos by the distinctive slide guitarist from sessions at the fa…
