When it comes to crafting, there are so many things that inspire us to make things. One of my biggest crafting inspirations is celebrating holidays, and I’ll bet most crafters would say the same. There are SO many crafts that can make them even more special. Tell me….who doesn’t love to receive a handmade gift that was made especially for them?

While clearing the clutter in my craft room I have been learning some lessons in organizing in the most efficient way possible.

In my craft room the main storage area is a shelving unit that we refer to as the Craft Credenza.

Here is the “before” picture of the Craft Credenza:

A Craft Room Intervention

After working for Styled & Organized for several months I was feeling like I needed to “come clean” about the most embarrassing part of my home. After all, if I’m going to be a true asset to Leticia Pfeiffer’s professional organizing business I better start applying her strategies to all areas of my life! I had already tackled some small parts of my home (catchall drawer, cosmetics drawer, pantry, etc…) These initial projects only took an hour or two of my time, but the end results were life changing. Knowing what a huge impact organization can have on my everyday life…I knew it was what I needed in my craft room. It was time to tackle organizing my creative ...
