Craft Storage
As a crafter you probably have bits and pieces all over your workshop. If you are really lucky the kids would have left home and you have a room to store all your craft items. If you are not so lucky and have to hide it all in a cupboard but want all your items to hand storage organisers are essential
There are many
craft storage solutions. Scrappers and Card Makers can buy folders and boxes to keep scrapbooking papers, embellishments and cards in so they don’t get ripped or screwed up. Jewellery makers can buy
bead towers and containers with many sections for the beads. If you are a knitter you would need storage to keep all your wool, pattern, and needles.
A lot of
craft storage these days is designed to be mobile as crafting has become a social event and there are lots of craft clubs all over the country. Mobile storage is also helpful if you are a professional and attend a lot of fairs.
Craft storage can be very expensive if not approached in the correct way especially if you have a lot to store. Before going out and buying loads of craft boxes that you are never going to use.
Check these few things first :
1. Are the craft items you are storing all the same size or lots of different sizes.
2. Have you got a lot of space or do you need to use as little space as possible.
3. Organise your craft so the items you use regularly are easy to access
Clear organisers are great because you can always see the contents without opening the box but if they are not clear always remember to label there is nothing more infuriating than having to keep opening storage boxes to find that one item
Below I have listed a few that might be useful to you and don’t take up to much space on your desk top and can also be mobile
