Great ideas, thank you.
This is beautiful
Great ideas!
Great idea!!
This is wonderful ideas and being visual like you this would work wonderful for me.
Thank you for the tour and great ideas
I needed to see this video. I need to re-do my fabric storage system.
Thank you for the video!
Cinnamon, I tried pins on my fabric boards 4 yrs ago, but they get caught when trying to removing boards that are stored tight. Rubberbands dry and rot. Now I use 1/4" bulk elastic left from masks. 14" cut and knot tied in the end works great for 7''x11'' boards, plus doesn't damage fabric. I have over 450 boards in labeled Banker Boxes with section cut out of end of box for viewing fabrics...on large bookshelves. Works great ! I can see all inventory at one glance. Your new larger room looks wonderful. CONGRATS.
Great tip! I've had the same issue, thanks for the suggestion!
Such a good solution. I have done this and I love it.
I have a couple clear plastic filing bins, so I'll recycle the contents and give the hanging file folder idea a try!
Thanks for this. I'm getting lots of ideas, to help in my organizing.
Thank you for this video -it may have solved my storage problems. I'm also an "out of sight, out of mind person" so I love the openness of everything.
Love the storage by the doll!
I've used these. Love them!
love it
Love all your ideas!
Love her ideas
Thanks for the great ideas!
I really like how all your fabric is organized. It is so easy to see what you have and where it is. I would imagine it is a great time saver as well.
Great Video ! I'm also a visual person and order the comic book boards and get organized, Thank you ! Looking forward to more tips on organizing.
I store my fabric by type of fabric & by color, with plaids, polka dots & stripes in groups of their own. I have shelves that are 18" deep. I have a 24" dowel, with marks in from each end so it is 18". I fold my fabric to 18" & roll it up on the dowel, wrap paper around the roll (like they do with the fabric remnants at JoAnn's. I then put the rolls on my shelves, pulling out the dowel after it is in place.
Those are some AWESOME ideas for fabric storage I particularly love the one about using the hanging folders for the speciality fabrics!
I love this! Thank you!
I loved this video. All the suggestions for storage were great. I particularly enjoyed the visual of how you folded the fabrics for the comic board. Now...I just have to get the inertia to do this!
I have such large quantities of material, not sure this will work, but for some of it, it'll be worth trying.
I love how you have organized everything. I'll try some of your ideas!
I really need to tackle this job next in my sewing room! Thanks for the ideas!
Wish I had a craft room with room to store fabric like that.
I love the file folder idea!
Good ideas if you have the space to organize that way
I have all my fabric in big totes in my shed. I dream of the day I can have my own sewing room and can have awesome storage like you.
Love these ideas. I’m in the process of trying to set up a sewing area so these ideas are great.
This is brilliant!
Hi there. I just came across your channel today and have been watching your organizing series. Your sewing room was pretty before but I love the changes you've made to make it even more functional for yourself and your work process. 💖 I just thought I'd give you a suggestion about the harder to store fabrics that you've draped over file folders. You, of course, can take or leave my suggestion. 😂 For the file boxes that aren't clear, you might want to try laying them on their side (the wider side) and stacking one on top of the other so that you can see everything a bit better as well as to prevent a line / crease from forming on the fabric where it's hanging on the file folder. Hope this tip is useful to you or one of your viewers. Looking forward to watching more of your videos! 😊
Loved your ideas, especially the one where you organize your fabric by color. Love this.❤😘
I just spent two days folding my fabric over comic boards and folding smaller pieces into IKEA bins. I am using the largest, 72"x72" IKEA KALLAX wall unit. Thank you for the very cool idea. I am also visually oriented with that "out of sight, out of mind" challenge. This system has all of my fabric out in the open, sorted by colors (I used ROYGBIV, plus white and black).
I am working towards fabric organization. I use clear bins, instead of shelves, because I don’t have many shelves. I like the mini cabinet for smaller pieces; at the moment, my little stuff is a jumble in a box.
Never thought of folding the other way. Genius, thank you!
Thanks for sharing
Great tip
I had never heard of comic boards, but this is a great system!
I love all your ideas. When I worked and had to keep the printer full of paper and forms, there were always at least 2 pieces of cardboard in the box and being the pack rat that I am, I saved them. And that is what I use to wrap my fabric around to store it.
Love the mini storage units for the scaled down fabric storage. I love that creativity. It does help to keep the fabric stash visible to be able to be inspired by it. I too forget what I have if I cannot see it when I am planning a project.
Oh what good ideas .. thank you
Very helpful
The mini fabric storage is clever and adorable
Like your idea of the little shelves with the doll next to the shelves. So Cute!
I would love to put my fabric on comic book boards to file them in the bins I use.
I love the mini shelf!! So cute and functional! This is great inspiration!!
You definitely have some great ideas to try out. Now that Holiday sewing is done it's time to clean and reorganize.
I also use comic book boards. I also use plastic U shaped alligator clips that I purchased from Amazon for about $13.25 for 1000 pieces to clip the fabric on to the board.
Thanks for sharing your folding technique. So clever.
I love your bolts of fabric. That is a fabulous idea, and one I would love to incorporate into my sewing room. Also, the doll sized fabric selections and display are adorable!! You're so creative! :)
Great ideas! I have my fabric folded in plastic bins and it always gets deep fold lines
Press the folds using 1/4 teaspoon of white vinegar to one cup of water, spray it along the fold using one of those "mist" spraying bottkes.
Great storage tips :-)
Very cool!
Love Comic Boards for storing fabric. Helps keep organized by design and color.
The boards are a great idea for smaller pieces of fabric! I have SO much fabric that a lot of it is stored in 12x12x12 milk crates, stacked on their sides (last count was 38 crates). Some of my fabric is in boxes and some in bins and full bolts stack on top.
I've been using plastic bins for my fabric. Thanks for the video and all that you do!
These ideas will help me organize my fabrics--thanks!
Great storage idea. I need to clear off a couple of shelves and try this.
I love this idea and have been using it for all my larger pieces of fabric. Easy to see and uses less and less space.
I would LOVE a system more usable than the one I have.
I have an old chest that I keep fabric in. This was a fun video to watch.
I need to do this as soon as possible!
interesting to see your storage ideas. love the tiny wee round containers. and wonder where you got your tiny wee buttons.
I use and love the comic book board idea. I have mine standing upright in the wooden crates that I purchased at Michael's. Of course, I don't have room for all my fabric....
These were great ideas--it's a truly beautiful space. :)
I like the way you have your fabric stored on the cards. It would be so easy to find what you are looking for. I think this might be my solution to fabric storage.
Beautiful sewing room! Thanks for the ideas.
I organize my fabrics similarly, except I recycle cardboard and cut to size then when I have fabric to put away, I pull out a precut board and wrap and store the fabric on it. Large or bulky materials go on pants hangers and hang in the closet.
I love the cardboard idea! I am going to give that a try!
Love love this. I already do the comic boards but how you did the little ones is genius. I need to do this. Great video!
Very inspiring. I wish I had shelf space to do that!
Great! I am also very visual...and have ignored ! a lot of fabric in bins/tubs/stashes because I could not see it...out of sight/out of mind LOL so now I am in the process of cutting down foam board $store to wrap the fabric around, I probably owe someone an apology for not believing them, and not even trying their suggestions. I tend to be a bit of a procrastinator and Cinnamon, your room is perfect...love the doll sized shelf/fabric ... And you are certainly correct, when you say, doll clothing storage is a totally different topic. and I would like to see how others store their doll clothing, made from all those wonderful PFaire patterns we purchase . ThankS.
Great ideas
Thank you for your ideas.
I am inspired to organize!
Thank you for all the helpful ideas for fabric storage.
I love how visual this storage system is. The mini shelves are adorable.
I really need to do this!
Great ideas, just wish I had the room to put shelf units like that!
Loved all the ideas, but … alas, all my fabric must be stored in boxes in half of a standard bedroom closet. I use clear plastic stackable boxes by theme. Historic, holiday, interfacing, etc. Plus, the old-fashioned stackable pattern boxes by color.
Very nice. I would like to use the boards like this. I organize by fabric type and then by color.
I love your doll’s fabric shelf so much!!!
Thank you!! 😊
I've seen this video before in the Sewing With Cinnamon.
I ended up using this for my craft/sewing room. I bought plastic drawer units on sale. They're clear, so I can see what colours are inside and can open it to see exactly what's in. I bought poster board from the dollar store and cut rectangles in the size I needed (more work than comic cardboard but easier to get).
I'm also a quilter and had seen the comic board idea before. With all the fabric I have, it seemed too time consuming and expensive...also, my biggest problem is putting things back! I think it's the year to organize and get rid of many things. I need ideas on how to store laces by the yard and ribbon not on rolls...ric rac and colored trims of all sorts! Going off to measure cubbies and order comic boards!
Mary, I have mine stored in "over the door" shoe "pocket" holder. One on each side of same door in fabric room.A dozen pockets organizes alot of items.
@@bamagirlie72 I think that sounds easier for now than winding ribbon and trims on smaller boards. thanks!
I prefer to use storage units with doors to help keep the dust off. Instead of using hanging file folders I use plastic hangers and hang on a rod inside the storage unit.
Looks absolutely amazing 😻
Would love to have that kind of space. I have clear plastic drawers and organize by type of fabric rather than color. I can go to flannel drawer or stretch fabric drawer, etc. depending on project.
I think organizing by fabric type is a good idea.
I'm getting a craft room. An this is very inspiring. Especially with the filing hack. Thank you
Thanks for the good ideas -- gives me something to think about! My fabric is in tubs and not visible, so I want to bring at least some of it out where I can see it.
Great tips loved them thank you ❤
Wow, I really like your way of thinking
👏👏👏
Just subscribed! ❤️😀
Yay! Thank you!
I have some of my fabric folded on pieces of cardboard to make small bolts but not mini dolled sized ones! I’m definitely going to try that!
I don't have open shelves but the same can be done with clear storage containers.
Nice!
I use the bolt method and love the visual convenience of it. I love your tips on using the masking tape for measuring and the adorable mini storage display.
I love the look of this method of storage, but I worry about dust and odors as my office/sewing room is close to my kitchen.
Out of sight Out of mind... I'm the same, although it might be on my mind but feel unaccessible if things are not out where I see them. The comic cardboard would be acid free, so safer to use than regular cardboard.
I think we've exhausted the comic book board method.
I love the bolt method. Right now I have fabric in storage totes but can't see what I have. Do you have trouble with them getting dusty though?
