Craft room re-shuffle

 



So… 

I was stressing about my scrapbooking paper. I just couldn’t find the paper as easy as I wanted. This is because I had them in a draw with 6in” x 6in” paper and A4 paper. Plus all the excess cut-offs, which I had no idea how I was going to use because I never looked at them. 

I decided to create a tub and fill it with my scrapbook paper as well as an ice cream tub filled with my cut-offs. I actually have quite a lot of small cut-offs so this was handy.

I then moved my stickers out of my washi tape draw because that wasn’t fun to look through with all the clutter. I made a spot with sticker books to the back of the draw, my box of smaller sized stickers to the front with some other decorations to the left side.

Then I re-sorted my washi tape storage draw and have one section for all of my pens and the rest is tape. 

I later did some scrapbooking and discovered I used a lot of the cut-offs because I could easy trek through it all. I also enjoyed scrolling through my paper to find the right pieces. I have very unique pieces so I haven’t sorted it by theme or colour or anything but they may change in the future.

Reshuffling my craft space for scrapbooking

When you feel uninspired change up your craft space  So I haven’t been scrapbooking as much because I have a set of drawers with stickers, washi tape and other cool stationery and then I have my tub of scrapbooking paper in my cupboard.  I was thinking about what I could do to bring my scrapbooking closer. Here’s a photo of my tub of scrapbooking paper. Look how undesirable it looks. Inside I have large paper about A4 size and A3. Then I have 12x12 inch paper. Plus an ice cream tub full of scrap paper.  It just made me feel unsatisfied and what makes me excited to work on a hobby is that I can see the resources and get excited to get started. But this set-up was not empowering me. I started brainstorming about maybe making a craft space. I found a table from IKEA with draws on both sides that I could put my scrapbooking paper and accessories in as well as my diamond painting. I also found a desk backing which is like a three level high shelving that attaches to the table....

Crocheting my first blanket and how you can to

Finding a relaxing crochet project for beginners So I decided that crocheting animals etc. is pretty stressful. Not really stressful but not relaxing. A cool end result but I wanted to find something to crochet where I didn’t have to count the stitches or focus on the different type of stitches. So I decided to crochet a simple blanket.  I just wanted to use a small amount of stitches and not count them. I didn’t want to do anything fancy. But I still wanted to crochet. I believe if I could find something to stitch that I could just relax doing it than it was worth it. I started googling a simply blanket planet using single crochet stitch. It’s simple start off with the first row with a chain stitch and then turn it over and do the rest with a single crochet stitch. Brilliant.  Why single crochet blankets don't work without a chain stitch So I started crocheting a baby blanket. It didn’t work out. The sides were uneven and the blanket was all different lengths. So I googled an...
