Craft Room Organization Tips & Tricks!
Hello everyone, it’s Nina-Marie back here with you again and I have a few craft room organization quick tips for you! I know most of us love looking for fresh, new ways to organize our creative spaces and I hope today’s video helps you with that task!
In the video I will be sharing some of my most-favorite organization ideas, including…
Paper storage with the InterDesign Magazine File Holder. I love these units so much for holding my cardstocks. I keep each individual color of cardstock in a plastic file sleeve; those sleeves are then stored inside the Magazine File Folder. I keep the folders tucked onto my built-in bookcase sideways; this allows me to see all the colors and easily access the paper. I can fit approximately 12-15 individual colors of 100lb cardstocks in these Magazine File Folders.
Another storage idea is for Alcohol Inks. Ranger and Tim Holtz recently debuted their handy Alcohol Ink Storage Tin; this is a definite must-have for your little bottles of ink!
I really like the lockable lid, so nothing can fall out of the tin. The inks also fit nice and snug inside, which makes this a very secure method of storing Alcohol Inks. You can store 30 inks inside the tin. If you don’t have alcohol inks, you could also store Enamel Accents, Stickles, Distress Oxide refills, or other similar sized bottles into these tins (Nuvo Drops will not fit!).
But if you are looking for a way to store your Nuvo Drops, then you may want to check out these cute InterDesign Tiered Compartments. I love using these for all my Nuvo Drop bottles, Shimmer Powder bottles, Distress Ink refills, and more. It maximizes my storage space and also displays them beautifully! I’m of the mindset that craft supplies double as decor too! ;)
My final organization idea is using the Altenew Medium and Large storage pockets for both stamp and die storage, but also as project organizers! I love how thick and sturdy these are; in my opinion, they will last you for forever. I’ve often had to replace other storage pockets because they wear out depending on how hard they are used. I’ve yet to replace a single pocket, and I have been using them for almost a year.
Be sure to see the video to find out how I use them for keeping my in-progress projects organized!
I hope that a peek at some of my favorite storage solutions for crafting supplies has helped you find new organizational ideas for YOUR creative space! Thanks for joining me; I’ll be back soon with more inspiration for you!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
Awesome storage ideas, I love those heavy storage pouches!
The link for the cardstock folders takes you to the holder, not the folders.
WHERE can one find the File Sleeves for the 8 1/2″ x 11″ paper???? THANKS NINA!!! SUPER IDEAS!!! ;)<3
I agree with Becky Green, where can we find the folders that hold the 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock? Your studio looks so bright and cheerful! I have had my 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock stored on my shelves in ScrapOrganizer hard plastic holders. I have used this method for 15+ years, but now the holders are getting old and some are cracking at the edges. ScrapOrganizer went out of business several years ago, so I am looking for a new solution and think the way your store your cardstock would work for me as well. Thank you for sharing.
I’ve been waiting for an answer… does Nina ever read the comments?
I’ve been searching online trying to find those sleeves. I can’t seem to find them.
It would be A LOT easier if she would just tell us.. :/
Great storage ideas–I use a few of them, I have lots of 12 x 12 CS, so use the plastic large ones to store papers vertically. Like the pockets for storing project items together.
Awesome storage ideas!!! Thanks
Thank you so much for sharing all those great tips Nina-Marie. Crafters are always looking for great storage solutions.
Thank you so much for the video and have a wonderful weekend.
Question:
Can the insert of the alcohol ink tin also be purchased separately?
Great ideas! I use a couple of them already but will be giving some of the rest a try. Thanks for sharing!
Can always use ideas for organizing so I’m not thinking, “now where did I put that one…where’s the orange re-inker? Right? tfs
Thank you so much for these great storage ideas.
I am always looking for new storage ideas.
Great ideas! I need all the help I can get in this area…
Thank you for more tips on not only keeping my supplies stored well but also how pretty all those rainbows of supplies can look on a decorative note x
Great tips – thanks!
I really like those storage pockets. They really do look durable.I am in serious need of them. ?
I’ve been looking for a good way to store my small (but growing) Nuvo drops collection. I love the look of those tiered holders!
