    What a refreshing look at clutter! No Marie Kondo/Minimalist nonsense here! I love that you are never condescending, judgmental or patronizing toward us "clutterers".
    I wish you lived next door!

    • @TheCraftyOrganizer
      @TheCraftyOrganizer  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      LOL I really appreciate hearing this. I think it's because I understand (and still sometimes struggle with) the root of clutter. I see value in too many things to not keep more than I need. And, most of the time, I end up using it!!! Thanks for being here with me.

    Hi, Norinne! I love, love, love, this video. This post is too long, but I think it is so important for you to realize how your videos are inspiring, motivating, stress reducing, informative and encouraging. I began watching your videos and started to organize things around the house.About a year ago I ripped out the carpet in my craft/sewing/office room and installed a floating floor myself. (I was so proud of myself.) At that time, I created 3 zones using old furniture and a few desktops and legs form ikea. I sorted all of my supplies into broad categories. That worked well but I found that I was hauling bins out of the closet to get to some of the supplies and I wasn’t making things because it was a pain to haul the stuff out. I have watched your videos and decided to do a “Norinne”. I took my buttons for sewing and put them inside binders in trading card sleeves, sorted by color, put glitter in dollar tee salt and paper shakers and put it on the wall in the crafting area in a thrifted spice rack, did the binder thing with stickers and transfers, sorted all of my beads and beading supplies in those little wood drawers that I already had from Ikea, and made the little drawers from DT that you did a video on, too. Fabric is in one dresser, yarn in another, all protected from sunlight, and I have six cube units with bins under two desks for larger supplies-likes with likes. The last phase will be labeling everything tomorrow. I spent the last five days doing this and re watched some of your videos when I got stuck. When I was overwhelmed I took a break and broke down the next task to do for fifteen minutes and then just moved into the next fifteen minutes without realizing it. You gave me a great start last year with your directions, telling us it is do-able, we can change things, and showing us how to do this...without stress....taking small steps...enjoying the process....and tweaking it for what works best. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. P.S. Thank you also for the suggestions and help with my garage....it is more organized and functional than it has ever been-that was late winter, early spring. I love the shelving unit and the ability to move it where I need it.
    I can find everything so quickly in both places, and put it back almost right away. So functional and practical, and they look nice, too. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have had a deep, major, impact on my life. You showed me that my disability(Cushing’s Syndrome) does not have to stop me from doing what I love, and showed me how to make it happen! I will remain eternally grateful, and touched. -Dana

Please keep me posted - and I'd LOVE to see pictures!!!! 💛🌻💛

    Hi Norrine, I just wanted to rake a minute to thank you for your channel. I moved into this house about a year ago. We have been renovating since we moved in. We are in the kitchen now and my sweet husband built me a kitchen tool pantry. As He was adding the roll out shelves and asking me where to put each shelf, I thought of you saying put likes with likes. I will be taking everything out of the food pantry tomorrow that doesn’t belong there. Then I will put likes with likes before I put them in there new home. Again thank you for your channel. Today I learned what I am going to do with my under the bed bags after I get the kitchen done. Blessings

    • @TheCraftyOrganizer

    I love seeing the before and after photos. They are very inspirational. I would like to add a word of caution. I worked in a fabric shop for over 10 years and I know that any fabric will fade when exposed to any light. If fabric is not going to be used for a few months, it needs to be covered, or put in closets. Even clear plastic will not protect it. I've lost too much yardage when a piece of fabric got left out and I had a faded area to work around. This applies to ribbon, also. Thank you for the great information. I appreciate you. ❤

    • @TheCraftyOrganizer

    I have been putting off a major project. I have a small room that I use as a bedroom/ office / crafting area. I keep all of my craft supplies hidden away in my walk in closet. A few months ago I pulled them all out to sort and organize. I became overwhelmed and have not gone back. After watching this video I think that your sorting method will be of much help to me
    Going to give it a try.

    This information is so important to me. Paper is the bane of my existence!!! This helps tremendously. I am also newly into crafting and suffering from no storage. First everything was a mess in my living room but I tried to get a handle on the supplies by using Rubbermaid tubs separating like with like. I've moved everything into the dining room now but it's still a disaster and I need to use it as a dining room too. I am single with no help to straighten it out. Sometimes I feel like I am losing my mind. I work as a caregiver and I am limited on face time with the mess but I can finally see a difference but finding a home for everything is a struggle. Your calm, logical approach to this helps more than you can know.

    • @TheCraftyOrganizer
      @TheCraftyOrganizer  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Go through your home and take a real look at closets and cabinets.... see if there are any under utilized spaces that can get merged to make a dedicated spot for your craft supplies! Don't worry about what a space is "supposed" to be used for. Extra dresser? Craft supplies! Linen closet not full? All sheets/towels on one shelf - the rest is craft supplies! It's ok to think out of the box 💜

    Thank you for this particular video. I have been watching your videos for a few months now and binge watched a lot of them. This one I took away your idea of dividing into categories and according to in my case, crafting. I knit, crochet, sew, scrapbook, card making, diy's, you name it I do some. But my craft areas are bulging with either supplies or items, and I'm invading living spaces that should be used as they are purposed. I have in the past , attempted to organize, buying bins, totes and such, but I never seem to have it organized. I just have bins everywhere. Now you have showed in today's video how to break down those categories to further categories until you have a manageable system. Less bins and totes. I have a lot of work to do. You are a great inspiration to those of us who are, not hoarders but unorganized. Thank you for all your good and very useful videos and ideas. I'm envious of your craft room, even though you utilize your garage to do so, I have a huge basement. May God Bless You Richly! ~Debi~ debimill052@hotmail.com

    I just watched this, again! 😁 I had planned on working in my sewing room yesterday, but life happens! So today it's at the top of my list. Your analogy with the super market canned goods aisle sent sparks through my brain. NOW I know how to sort my many types of yarn/threads I have! AND I've realized thay my knitting supplies need to be removed from the sewing room because I NEVER knit downstairs. Amazing! I'm sure I will watch this video again & again as I work through the room. I even downloaded it onto my tablet so I can refer back to it often, easily and handily in the room. I can't thank you enough for your videos.🤗🤗🤗🤗

    The one example that had the most impact on me was the office space. I have a space similar although not as large but I cannot even see the floor. I have it full of Girl Scout materials and memorabilia, and survival equipment. It is so overwhelming that instead of repositioning items, more is just placed on top of what’s already there

      Using her idea for the wire shelves, instead of putting them in a corner, or long side against the wall, you could put them side by side with a little walkway between, much like you'd find in a small public library.
      Put the narrow side against the wall, with the bulk of the shelf jutting out into the room, then leave enough space to walk and pull stuff off the shelf and add the next shelf, repeat until you run out of room.

    I walk into a messy room and see a one-dimensional flat wall of mess. My mother would walk into that same room and be able to immediately start seeing categories. She is gone now and this video is helping me immensely. I live in a 600 square foot apartment. I did have a bedroom with crafts; now I have a craft room with a bed. I guess you see my priorities. I will put curtain panels over each of the two bookcases that match my bedspread.
    What I don't quite understand is how you break down my sewing - painting - scrap/cardmaking categories. I took many notes as you spoke during this video and try to make some lists and break them down. Thank you with all my heart, Noreen! You are so special and kind to help us. Barbara in Dallas.

    I love how you dealt with all of that fabric. I have a lot, too. It's just randomly folded and thrown in a box, with the usable scraps in a carry-on. I thought of a way to do something similar. Now I know how to do it.
    I like how you described breaking things down into broad categories. Then, to keep breaking each category down further and further. That grocery store example turned the lightbulb on for me!! I do so many different crafts that this is going to help a lot. Especially since I want to have them in their own spaces.
    I'm hoping I'll have the rest of the house completely done soon enough. Plus, at the very least, the broad categories in the craft room done by the time you're ready to pick your next round of people to help virtually. That way, if I do get picked, I'll be ready to turn your mockups into reality. ☺️☺️
    You never ceases to amaze me, Norrine. You have the most creative mind. I'm so blessed to have found you. 💚

    I really like the macro-to-micro sorting. I've been trying to do that in my clutter-studded kitchen, but got bogged down with, "Does the sesame oil go with the tall bottles or the oils or the Asian stuff?" Macro sort: bottles, period; answer the micro question later. Yay!

I used to be very neat and organized and now I'm confused and frustrated I can't even seem to craft anymore it's gotten to be too much. I remember you said you would come see me once you get your camper I'm looking forward to that day hopefully we will be moved so then it will be definitely good cuz you can help me organize a new place.

    I loved all of it because I have been trying to organize my whole house. My problem is that when I get one area done and start the next, my first area is a mess because other members of the household don't help keep it organized. Then I just feel defeated. I am the only female among three males. Their ages are 64, 33, and 10. Thanks for all of your videos.

    • @TheCraftyOrganizer

      Getting everyone on board is one of the hardest parts!!!! ESPECIALLY if their habits are not effected by the clutter. Try and explain how the clutter impacts you - involve them with the process so that they feel ownership with certain areas- and keep your fingers crossed. I really wish I had a great tip for that one! Good luck!!!!

    You spoke to my soul regarding "saving" cardboard boxes.😮
    I do repurpose & created storage with them. And use in craft projects. Still...I have waaay too many.😬
    Also, the paperwork! I'm disabled & live with family, a multi-generational household.
    I do a multitude of various crafts. My bedroom is my craft space, my office & my sleep space. I have storage issues, to say the least! Supplies are spread far & wide. I spend so much time searching for things I know I have, which cuts into my craft time as a chronic pain sufferer. And, old paperwork...it's taking over. What a mess!
    But, this video gave me some ideas & inspiration. You are awesome! You are very creative & just so sweet. Thank you for all the advice you give.💙💙💙
