I hear from many of you that you have a hard time getting starting in your crafting, all your supplies are disorganized, or things are all mixed up and you don't know where anything is.
I understand.
Having a clean and clear space really makes all the difference. I truly believe that and just experienced it.
Last year, I developed a guide to tackle this exact problem. It's called "Mess? What Mess? Daily and Weekly Habits for an Organized Craft Area".
Summary:
Keep your crafting area organized & tidy so you can spend your time creating and not cleaning!
This 13 page guide is full of tips for taking stock of your supplies, creating a space that feels just right for you, tackling quick cleanup tasks & managing your digital crafting life as well as give you
suggestions of where to give away or sell the supplies you no longer need or use.
It's designed to be practical and flexible - because an organized space isn't about perfection - it's about creating an environment where your creativity can thrive.
Here is one of the tips in the guide I used today:
Create a "Project in Progress" Box or Tray
- Sometimes, you don’t have time to finish a project in one sitting. Having a designated tray or box keeps all project pieces together so your space stays clutter-free.
- This also prevents losing small die-cuts, embellishments, or stamped images before they’re adhered to a project.
