I love seeing how everyone's "happy space" is different...whether its big, small, clean or disorganized. It's a space filled with things that makes us happy and that's all that matters. Tfs! ❤☕☀️
You do you. Nothing wrong with your room. Great video. Thank you for sharing. Love what you do right everyday. Wrong is in the eye of the bored and miserable. Hugs💖🤓
Thank you for sharing your space! I absolutely love that you kept it real!!!! I just moved and actually get the smallest room as my crafty space so ive been watching a TON of craft tours, and I very much enjoy your realness🥰Thank you
You have done a great job making your space work for you! Love how you have those little drawers under your desk. I try and keep a lot things within arms reach and have a 12x12 paper storage container under my desk and still have plenty of room to pull right up to desk and create. Love your happy place. 🥰. I have a ton of scraps and lots cut up from when I was a stampin up demo. I am using them to put images on my stampin up dies since they don’t show what they are on the outside. I get the tossing them as they build up quick and I know they are taking up a ton of space in my room 😏. Thank you for sharing and I saw a couple of ideas that I think will help in my room!
Love your Space! I too have a butcher block that I purchased from IKEA about 20 years ago. I bought some legs and that’s been my craft space for years and years. Unfortunately I don’t have the space to craft inside my home other than my dining room table which for obvious reasons doesn’t work, so I’ve created a workspace outside in the garage where I can sew and craft to my heart’s content. I too have plastic drawers underneath my desk because that’s the space I have to work with and like you I love my space it’s wonderful and I call it my happy place. I do not have any fancy containers cubbies or otherwise for storage, I make do with things I have or repurpose things. It’s not about having a showcase room (not that I would love to have one) but my craft space is functional it’s mine and it’s my favorite place in the house. Thank you for posting your real space 😎
Thanks for sharing your space, Dawn! I loved watching. For those who have unkind words, well, they're just showing their privileged self and how humble they are NOT. So screw 'em. It's wonderful to see how you make your space work for you. So many crafters have small spaces and it's really the minority that have dedicated large rooms. As Tim Gunn would say, "Make it work!" :)
Love your tiny room. My chaos worst than yours ! It over whelms me. You've inspired me to sort mine out. Love the space under your desk. Thankyou for sharing.
It was actually so refreshing to see a non-Ikea craft room. Much of what I have is old or from yard sales or repurposed as well. Also, I have storage under my desk too, so not sure why people would be negative about that! It works so well for me because everything is right there! Thanks for sharing your space with us!
You do what works for you. I've been a scrapbooker for many years and I'll tell ya, I stand when I scrap. When I paint I'll sit but scrapping 12×12 and double spreads, I want to look down on it. I went to scrap parties and many chose to stand... You are using your space to achieve what works for you. No one should judge your space.
How nice that this space works for you and makes you happy! I love the drawers under your desk. Some people are not happy unless they are being critical. You get to wake up tomorrow and be you, they have to wake up and be them. You win. Hugs, treen 💕💕💕
Been card crafting for about 12 years and I recently did a major reorganization of my craft room which is in my bedroom! I think/hope it’s my last major reorganization. I use what I have and try to make it work so everything flows and works for me! Almost everything is now within reach from my chair! I also utilize the space under my desk! It’s prime real estate in small spaces! Great job!👏👏👏
Kudos to you for using all your available space. I also utilize under the desk space which is very valuable real estate. Just ignore the criticizes-they don’t deserve any attention. Thanks for sharing.
Your room is AWESOME! You have the best craft room tour video I’ve seen and I’ve been binging this past week as I create my craft room. Your room is real, not an IKEA commercial like I’ve been seeing. Also I’m jelly of your COPIC collection but I’ll get there😁
I am so much like you, my space is little and my containers and varied, I have about 6 book cases, and three different colors and all that kind of thing…. I Only have sort things out and regroup. You are pretty awesome. Your space is awesome as well! The best to you finding a new home! Me to I am a messy crafter. And messy in most things. It is better now than it has been, we can make a difference in our lives. Sharing with others is Key. Why else do we have the ability to make cards. And rolls of stamps last a long time. Oh by the way I just subscribed to your Channel and I am glad I met you.. love your room! Toodles for now.
I also have a very small craft room…but it is my happy place as well. Thank you for sharing your storage ideas. I’m always looking for new and different suggestions.
I love this room. So much inspiration. I have a small space as well and you have so many practical ideas for storage. I personally love the under desk storage and have done this as well. I use my desk just fine and It doesn't bother me. I live having mu stuff at arms reach. Thank you for sharing. Be blessed.
Love your craft space. I am downsizing (way down!) and it was good to hear you say “it’s OK to purge”. I have paper I haven’t used in 20 years and every time I look at it I love it. I’m purging other things easier. I guess I have to just bite the bullet.
Love this video! As someone who's workspace is the dining room table...which, yes, we also eat on, I can really relate to small space crafting and using whatever works. It's not pretty but functionality has to come first when you work in a small space. I have 5 Raskog carts that I have organized for different types of projects, i.e. cards/albums, Colouring mediums, Die cutting station, Acrylic paints/stains/varnishes and finally I have one for my Cricut heat presses and their accessories. LOVE them! I also have 2 taller sets of plastic drawers like you have under your desk. All of that is in my dining room. Luckily there is only myself and my husband so we only need access to two chairs as there is no walking around our table anymore lol. Thank you for this "real" video.
Fun craft room! Totally agree you gotta make do with what you have and get rid of stuff you don’t use. Right now I’m renting a room from my sis & most of my crafty stuff is in storage. I had a ton more but donated a lot, threw the rest in boxes & shoved them in storage. The next few months I need go go through storage to weed out more stuff before I find a new place to live. Enjoy your happy place and TFS!
It’s your space and if it makes you happy that’s all that matters . I’m just about to start a little craft space it will be in my bedroom it will be only one wall and I am making a space for my great granddaughter she is 6 years old. It’s going to be small but that’s all in need . Loved your tour 🥰
Girl….. I love your space. I have a corner in my guest room so your space would be a delight for me. Great job showing us your treasures and organizing tips. I don’t keep scraps of paper either *gasp* - thank you for sharing and motivating me to reorganize things a bit differently. XO
Love your craft space. I also have been a stamper for over 34 years. I have over 4,000 wood stamps not including acrylic stamps. I have never heard of the stamp company and I don't buy any kits. I still use alot of 12 x12 paper pads. Love the Walmart white card stock. Love the drawers under your desk the most. I have cardboard boxes under my desk. I have one cart with my paints and sprays for mixed media. I don't use my cricut machine and I fussy cut everything. I have the Pampered chef white holder and best of all the Tim Holtz glass mat. Don't let anyone put your space down. You work 40 hours and craft! You are awesome. ❤❤❤
I have just found your channel, so this is the first video I have seen. Your crafting space is perfect. I'm in the UK, and also only have a small space. Good luck to you with all that you do, I think tiu are doing a fabulous job, especially as you gave a full time job. So, I am just off to watch some more of your videos. Happy crafting! 😊
I love your crafting space because I too have a small room space that I use for crafting. Your video inspriers me to use all space in my room possible. Thank you for sharing. I think your are great! Keep sharing and crafting. - Yvonne
Just subscribed and want to say “I love your space”. I have way too much and it’s so cluttered, my goal is to go through it all and purge. I want to find someone who really needs and will use it all. Have a blessed day and totally enjoyed your honesty. 😊
You do what makes you happy. my room is smaller then yours and now you have me an idea so I can get my to get her this summer 16 years here and haven't fixed it up yet. I be here and there not where I should be. thanks for the video 🤠🤠
New subscriber here.. I love your craft room. You have made it your own and that's awesome. Alot of craft rooms are just for looks, but yours is functioning, thats what it should be and that's what makes it great. You have utilized your space really well and created a system that works for you. Everyone has their own style and that's what makes them who they are, what works for you might not work for someone else and what works for someone else might not work for you, that's why we're called individuals. Maybe you can do a longer, more indepth video next time. Keep up the great work!
Love you tiny room, I just have a corner in my family room but it works. I’ve been making cards for 30 years and haven’t grown tired of it yet. I use half of the guest room closet for stuff I don’t use as often.
Your small space is inspiring even to those of us with large spaces. Sometimes the larger spaces are more disorganized and can use helpful tips from other crafters with tiny territories. I choose not to sit, my husband made a standing height work table for me so I gave less pain when creating. I love your space.
Thanks for sharing your piece of happiness with us. It's a great room even as small as it is. I only have space in an area of our house. Still have kids at home. Maybe sometime this year I will be lucky enough to get a shared room with hubby and his Legos.😊
I, also, love your room. I have my crafts in my bedroom. I am always "organizing". I try to figure what I can use from items from stash in the garage. You are very creative. You are an inspiration.
I loved seeing your space! Mine is not fancy either, but doesn't need to be. It's just me doing what I love to do for fun. I'm trying to better organize my space and thank you for some great tips.
I keep sets of drawers under my table/desk, too. I know where everything is in there and they are the best storage things I have. I like your work room, it seems practical and cute. I have to confess I have a scissors addiction but I love Tim Holtz scissors the best. I am trying to rein that in. Thank you for the vid.
Love the whole not perfectness of your craftroom.at the start of my own craft journey i was so blinded by all the perfectly done craftrooms but i was being more busy with getting my space perfect instead of enjoying the making.same goes with craft materials.after 8 years i am getting slowly past that point and this kind of craftroom make me reminded of that. A storage tip if you move. Ikea ivar not sure if ikea usa sells it🙂but they are amazing if you want to have lost of baskets with stamps because you can adjust the shelfs🙂and you can slowley buy piece by piece🙂
Dawn awesome! I think you actually have more room than I do. I can't buy everything because of space. So I'm very selective. Thanks for the video. Love your space!
Thanks for sharing your craft room. I like that you made the room work for you. I share a 10'x10' room with my husbands work computer (since he's still working from home). My desk is an old cabinet that used to store DVD's, candles and photo albums in the living room. I removed the doors and moved the shelves to one side. It's a little high so I have to put my feet on a couple of books but it's been working well. I try to purge twice a year. My husband says that if you don't use it or like it, it doesn't matter how much it cost you to buy - get rid of it. I didn't do that with my foil and toner images. I spent a week foiling everything and then another week making all of the sentiments and most of the backgrounds into cards to donate. I had fun (mostly) doing it but have no plans to buy anymore toner images. It's just not for me. Sorry for the long comment😁. New subscriber.
Great room & use of the small space! & i totally agree with u - purging is a necessity, particularly in said small room. 🤗☀️☕ & with your drawers under the desk: have you considered putting a narrow piece of wood across the tops of them? i did that on some of mine cuz it stopped the tops of those drawer units from bowing since i store stuff on top of them, too. 💕
You should feel good about knowing that Your Crafting/Card Making area is bigger than mine. I only have a corner (very small one at that in my Livingroom. Cheer Up!!! You have Someone else Jelly of You!!!!
It’s a great tool. They let you make Matt’s for your image or layer looks like a ruler has a ledge you butt up against cardstock and cut with exacting knife.
I love seeing how everyone's "happy space" is different...whether its big, small, clean or disorganized. It's a space filled with things that makes us happy and that's all that matters. Tfs! ❤☕☀️

Crafting isn’t about a beautiful room and well organized with everything matching it’s your happy space,and that’s all that matters.
Love your crafty space! ❤❤❤
Dear friend
After a long time I saw a person who is crafting. I love your happy place tc stay safe
Love your space!! I also LOVE your punches! I have a lot too and I will always keep them because I use them!!
I am so much like you, my space is little and my containers and varied, I have about 6 book cases, and three different colors and all that kind of thing…. I Only have sort things out and regroup.

Cool space! Thanks for the ideas!
I don't think punches are outdated at all. Much easier than always pulling out the cricuit
Love your craft space. I am downsizing (way down!) and it was good to hear you say “it’s OK to purge”. I have paper I haven’t used in 20 years and every time I look at it I love it. I’m purging other things easier. I guess I have to just bite the bullet.
NOT an unpopular opinion here! I feel the same way about purging. Great video 😊

Thank you so much. It’s a great way to utilize wall space
Your crafting space is awesome. Mine is in my laundry room. Not a lot of area to it but it's still my happy place.

Did you sew the covers for your scan and cut?
I did not I bout them from Kathy’s cozies on Etsy. They are great for keeping dust out Facebook it’s cozies4u her email is kathyscozies@yahoo.com
💜💜💜tfs💜💜💜
What is perfect layers?
It’s a great tool. They let you make Matt’s for your image or layer looks like a ruler has a ledge you butt up against cardstock and cut with exacting knife.
What? You’re a messy crafter? Say it isn’t so.
