Studio Monday with Nina-Marie: Craft Room Organization
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!

Love all these ideas for organizing.
Great ideas! Thanks for the tips!
Thanks for sharing your organization ideas!
Great ideas and tips for storage. I do like the storage pockets from Altenew and the Ranger tins are probably a must have, too!
Thanks for all the great ideas..
Great ideas, Nina. I love the tiered shelves.
Thanks for sharing your storage ideas, it’s always good to see what people use in their crafty corners :-)
We are building a new house, where I’ll have my own craftroom, yeah!!! Video’s like these give me so much inspiration to get organized. Where as for now… I’m crafting on the kitchen table and store everything in the garage ?
Thank you for the great tips. Personally, when I am not organized, I am not all that productive. Having just recently gotten into alcohol inks, I needed a way to store those little (err, rascals) bottles. ?
I always like to see how others store their stuff.
Thank you for all those ideas :)
Great ideas! I recently put all my cardstock into plastic holders like JMcG showed and have yet to stand them up where they belong. Getting there. :)
Thanks so much for the great storage ideas!! I especially like that new alcohol ink tin! :) Organization is my favorite!!!
Very useful post. Lots of tips for getting organized.
Great video, Nina and lots of great storage tips. I’m not surprised that more than half of the items you suggested are already out of stock.
I love to organize and found some helpful tips in today’s post–thank you.
So nice to see some creative ideas on storage once in a while, thanks for sharing the tips and new products!
Great ideas!!! Thanks!!
Great storage tips! I’d love to get some of those envelopes to keep my stamps and die sets together. Your craft studio is fantastic and so organized!
Great tips–I recently purchased from the large altenew bags, they are terrific! I’ve been debating about the alcohol ink box, as I have more than 30 colors, with all the mixatives. I have limited shelf space, so still working on that issue.
Wow, wonderful craft space… I love it!
Thanks for the great ideas!
Great tips. What are you using to protect your paper before you store it in the Linus file folder?
Great post and awesome tips!
Good storage ideas. I’m looking for a way to store all the Distress inks I have. My husband made a shelf insert for the Distress inks I have that fit in my bookcase, but now I have the Oxide inks and want shelving on my desk so I can grab them easily. Any recommendations?
Thanks for the great ideas! :)
Your studio looks fabulous! I love how you’ve stored the Nuvo drops. Like you said, I did think of storing the Nuvo drops in the Tim Holtz alcohol inks tin. Glad you said that :)
thanks for sharing all these wonderful ideas:)
Love the tiered compartments storage, I need something like this too. TFS!
These are great ideas, I’m working on organizing my craft room now. I keep moving things over and over again!
Thanks for sharing the organization tips! My crafting space desperately needs help and, like you, I want to see it out. I like seeing my supplies and also out of sight = out of mind for me :)
Thanks for the ideas!, Appreciate it!
Lots of great tips here! I need all the help I can get!
Nice tips – would like to know what plastic folders you use for your paper.
Thank you for the great storage tips.
I always love seeing how others organize their crafty stash. Great ideas here!
Thanks for pointing out these great organizational products.
Love these storage solutions Nina. Half the fun of crafting is keeping all of this stuff contained and well organized for easy access. The zipper pouches would be handy for many items. (I don’t have any Nuvo drops or alcohol inks, but the tin and clear trays would be awesome for that.)
Great tips for storage. Someday I will have a dedicated space just for crafting, but in the meantime these products would really be a god send for orginazation.
Thank you for sharing all those great storage ideas.
Great storage ideas! Thanks for sharing!
I like the storage idea for the cardstock. I already follow by email.
Thank you for the tips. What do you put your card-stock in? Looks like some kind of thick plastic folder. Please clarify, Thanks
There are some great ideas here! Thanks!
I really appreciate all these ideas, because I’m finding more and more that I need the organization in order to be able to craft well. Things are disappearing if I don’t have a good way to keep them organized!
I’ve been looking for ideas for storing my alcohol bottles, Stickles etc. Thanks for the info.
Great ideas! How would you like to come and organize all my scattered stuff?
Fabulous ideas! Love the InterDesign Tiered Compartments!
