I LOVE your craft room! It is so clean and not all crowded lol . There's nothing wrong with having a lot of stuff but sometimes it feels like its too much. My goal is to get my room close to yours one day lol. I moved for the last time this spring so I can actually get my room the way I want and don't worry about moving again.
I agree with you on the too much stuff. If it's out everywhere it just makes me feel overwhelmed. I really like the Alex drawers so I can hide a lot. Congrats on the move! I am really hoping this is our last move. Moving sucks!
OMG! I am sooo happy to know I am not the only one that hides in her own Animal Crossing Island!!!!! Life has gotten so incredibly overwhelming and creativity is now as distant as the school building is. Love your room and super proud of you for motivating yourself to show it to us! Much love and strength projected your way!!!
Wow this is a beautiful craft room. I have a full room myself too but mine is an absolute mess and I totally dread going in there now. I’m similar to you that with COVID-19 and things going on I’ve never been interested in crafting lately. I’m thinking of using your lovely clean and organised craft room as my inspiration to make myself get into cleaning it all up. Enjoy being a mommy and don’t let anything get in the way of it but also try and take even just 10 minutes to yourself. You deserve it even just to have a 5-10 minute contemplation of something you wish for or dream of. It’s something to strive for. Enjoy the little things keep safe and happy crafting xxBerne from the UK
Thank you so much for the words of encouragement and support. This moming gig is tough! I know what you mean about the mess keeping you from feeling inspired. I have to clean up after a project or two or the next time I don't want to really go in there. The project supplies clutter can build up so quickly.
Girl I feel ya! Everyone is in a weird headspace so take the time you need to be with your family. Crafting will always be there when you are ready again.
Glad you are posting. What filming camera do you use. Love you room. Your creative mind will come back. I have worked from home for two years with my husband being home full time and for years before he retired make sure you find time to restore your soul it is ok to not create. But make sure you find time for you. Men will usually do it some way. But mothers are care givers to everyone except themselves.
I just posted a video about my camera filming and lighting setup. I think you will find it helpful: th-cam.com/video/7DI7LV5Dm1Q/w-d-xo.html Thank you so much for your kind words. I hope you are well. I feel like recently I've gotten my crafty mojo back thankfully! It helps with one kiddo going back to in-person learning and I've also started exercising which has helped my mood a ton! So important to take care of ourselves, but it's not easy (especially trying to get started with it).
Thank you, we loved them so much we bought quite a few when they clearanced them. I added a link to the newer model in the description box: Teal Office Chairs (newer model): go.magik.ly/ml/cg05/
Love your Craft Room. Eventually I want the same setup with the tables and Alex Drawers. Totally random question....what paint color is your wall? TFS!!! 😀
Those Alex drawers hold so much stuff it's nice to be able to tuck away everything close to my desk. The paint color is Repose Gray and I absolutely love it! It goes with everything in our house. Not too light, not too dark.
Love this video and that u have all the links. I just starting my craft room make over. So one question, at the end of your long table where your ink storage is, what r u using to hold up the table top at that end? I see you have Alex drawers too but couldn’t see if you needed to buy legs ? My table is going to be exactly like yours! Thanks for the informative video
Thank you. The non-alex drawer ends are held up with the table legs. IKEA offers a few different kinds. You can see some of the legs on the tables next to my office chair. I just picked a white style of plain looking table legs. They are caled Aldis or Adils, something like that. Hope that helps!
Loved seeing your new setup. TYFS!!! Love how you put your paper on your desk. Good idea...those things are SO awkward to move around. I'm with you girl. I haven't scrapped either. Being in an apartment, I don't have my own space. I have my supplies in our bedroom in a big closet, and have moved things I need onto the kitchen table but only a couple times to make a stray birthday card here or there. :( Someday...we'll get there!! :)
I always got so sick of going to those honking ginormous paper things and sliding them in and out. I think this will work much better. Having to get supplies in and out is half the scrap battle lol.
Love your room. I noticed you didn't elaborate on the lights. I think lighting is one of the things most people want to know about, since a lot of us do YT or want to put nice pictures on IG. That's what i am looking for myself. How do you like the lights? Do you use them for videos? Thanks for sharing, Veronica
I have done filming setup videos in the past, but I can definitely do an updated one soon because I don't mind at all sharing any tips and tricks about it. These are just desk lamps from Ikea called TERTIAL. Nothing special at all. I do use them at night but they aren't fancy lighting specifically made for filming. I try to take pics and film with natural light as much as possible.
Nice. Did I miss where you mentioned the L shaped desk/tabletop and corner unit? That's really what I'm looking to purchase the corner deslk and tabletops to sit Alex drawers on top of..
Yep you must have missed it lol. They are all IKEA Linnmon (not sure on the spelling offhand) I put the dimensions of each piece in the description box.
The scrapbook albums? They are Becky Higgins Project Life brand and I got them at Michaels and ordered online, but I don't think they make these specific types anymore.
It's always linked in the description box. My Camera: tinyurl.com/p222byn There are newer models of this one now. Sorry for taking so long to respond! I never get email notifications for comments here sadly.
Bag big thanks for sharing Everything 🙏❤️ I know your video is a bit old but I have just found you. We also moved in August. Out of the big city and out to the country side. It is only 40 min in car but we had 2 big girls how moved home and we had 3 kids in a very little city house. That was not very fun when the hole country went to lockdown. So we found a big house and I was looking forward to having my own creative space But a lot went on and first the oldest move ( 25) and then the teenager moved home to her dad ( 16 and just wanted to live in the big city where all the action is) But a long story short...we live now 3 people in a very big and expensive house and we went to lockdown again ( started in December) and w are still lockdown. I have ALL the time in the world to craft but home schooling a 11 years old ADHD boy and taking care of the home. I can find any time and most of all. My creativity is gone. I clean and sorting your stuff but I just want to make some stuff 😢 I start many things but stop in the middle of it. I now want to make my room look nice and get new furniture in stead of all the leftovers from all the rooms in the house... I hope it will help my...I am hoping you will tell what you have done to get going again All the blessings from the other side of the world - Denmark 🇩🇰 Tina 👩🏻🎨❤️🙏
Hang in there. This year has been rough on everybody. I'm glad y'all got moved so you have more room. The crafty feelings will come back at some point. I think it's a good video topic to talk about getting the crafty feelings back. Big hugs to you!
It's hard to have much motivation for anything right now. Bleh. Hope you get your crafty mojo back soon. Sorry for taking so long to respond! I never get email notifications for comments here sadly.
Thanks girl! I am really trying to get the scrap mojo back. Having a baby during a pandemic and moving at the same time was all not a great combo for the motivation lol.
I love Craftroom tours! Your Craftroom is so organized! 💜 I am addicted to watching them. I just did my IKEA craft room tour if you are interested in watching? 💜🍃💜🍃💜🍃💜
Agree!! It's been hard to get into the crafty stuff the past couple years. For me, it's a combo of little kids, covid, and just plain not making time for it too.

Yes! Animal crossing is such a welcome distraction right now! The world is crazy right now. Stay safe and healthy, girl!

Stay safe and healthy girl. It's so trippy right now lol. That's a good way to look at it. Crafting will always be there.
Do you remember what the names of the desks are. Thank you.
I put the dimensions and names of all the ikea stuff in the description box. :)
Thanks so much for your tour, I love the room , Could you tell me where you gotten your corner desk .
Ikea! I have the info in the description box for it.

What kind of label maker do you use...I can’t seem to find a good one. Love your room.
It's a good one! I added the info to the description box also Label Maker: amzn.to/3owlmFu
Beautiful ❣ the painted desk is ikea micke desk without the top part
Thank you! I was blanking on what it was.

Forgive me but on the table tops, are the measurements lenth by width I assume???
I think the first number is how long the tables are and the depth of each table is the 23ish inches. Hope that helps!
I feel the same way you do. Since Corona I am not in the mood to craft
It's hard to have much motivation for anything right now. Bleh. Hope you get your crafty mojo back soon.
Sorry for taking so long to respond! I never get email notifications for comments here sadly.
You can buy a usb-c hub for your mac and plug all your regular USB items into it. That's what I did. They're only like $20 on Amazon
Thanks for the recommendation. I will check it out!
How big is your room?
It's approx 11X13 ft.
That’s so beautiful, that’s my goal!
Thank you so much and good luck getting your dream room together! This was years and years in the making for me.
So happy you made a video 😊
Thanks girl! I am really trying to get the scrap mojo back. Having a baby during a pandemic and moving at the same time was all not a great combo for the motivation lol.
Why don't you make one of your small draws out of white board just measure them and you can make one
I'm sorry I am not sure what you are referring to with your comment.
I love Craftroom tours! Your Craftroom is so organized! 💜 I am addicted to watching them. I just did my IKEA craft room tour if you are interested in watching? 💜🍃💜🍃💜🍃💜
I have the same desk setup! < it!
I love having the big corner desk, don't you? Makes it so easy to spread out all the crafty stuff.
Vídeo muito bom vc tem talento pra isso gostei muito do sei vídeo ((também tenho um canal pequeno da uma passadinha lá pfv ))
Obrigado! (I tried to translate your text and say thank you back).
COVID is killing a lot of creativity.
Agree!! It's been hard to get into the crafty stuff the past couple years. For me, it's a combo of little kids, covid, and just plain not making time for it too.
