All this week we are going to have some amazing inspiration for craft room organization. As craft bloggers, many of us have dedicated spaces for crafting. Anyone, blogger or not, can gain some organizing ideas from these spaces. I am going to start this week with a tour of my craft room below. You can also scroll all the way to the bottom and see a list of the bloggers on our tour this week so you can also gaze at their amazing craft rooms!
Craft Closet
I am going to keep this tour to my craft room but a few weeks ago I gave a tour of my craft closet. You can click here to see that full tour. This closet is actually in an adjoining room as my space actually doesn’t have a closet.
Craft Room Organization
I am going to to start this tour on one wall and move around the room. And, of course, I am going to start with my favorite of the entire space. This wall turned out just like I wanted it to and is just perfection!
Cube Organizers and Dividers
The cube organizers are actually from the BHG collection for Walmart. They have a variety of dividers you can add to the cubes as well. Those chalkboard front baskets are actually from there as well. The tops of the cubes even hold a variety of craft supplies.
So, you see, craft room organization does not have to be expensive. You can get your supplies from Walmart!
For me, the dividers are the icing on the cake. They help to keep my paint organized and looking amazing.
There is also a small basket on the floor in this area. I have to have a few toys for my grandson on the rare occasion when he is allowed up here!
Moving to the left, there is another cube organizer.
The top of this one has some large metal baskets as well as some magazine file folders. I did want to keep this tour a bit real. I did clean up for y’all but I wanted to leave everything out that I use as a blogger. In this case, the metal container to the right has backdrops. That means that all of those wood backgrounds you see in the pictures here are not always real!
More of the same baskets and dividers here. I did want to say that keeping all of my labels as chalkboard has really helped. I change these up frequently as I get new supplies or clean something out.
Rolling Cart
Last year, I added this rolling storage cart from IKEA. I just applied some vinyl to the front.
These carts are super inexpensive and great for craft room organization!
Pegboard Organization
To the left of that is a sewing area. I don’t do a ton of sewing so this space is the perfect size.
And that pegboard is also a lifesaver! I would recommend using one in any craft room if you can.
There are also a few things hanging on the wall. I also added frames around those to give them a home.
As we continue, you will see the door to the room. I just had to add some organization to it as well.
Back of the Door Organization
I put a shoe organizer over the door and then added in a variety of craft supplies. Chalkboard labels were used here again.
In the next corner, I have a small chest that I use to store a variety of props for taking pictures. Those large reflectors are also used for shooting images around here. The mess in the floor? Well that is just real life! As things come in or I have HUGE projects happening, that all gets stored here.
The top of that dresser is also printer central for the upstairs crafting room.
To the left is a daybed. It can be used for guests and also for the kids to hang out while I am working.
Art as Organization
These walls mostly contain art but that can be functional as well. Those small hanging organizers are holding succulents. I use these a ton in my crafting but why not show off my extras in the craft room!
Next to the bed, I have some stacked crates that act like a nightstand but it is also a place to put special mementos.
And that rotary phone on the top actually works!
Custom Craft Table
The very center of the room contains a large custom made craft table. My husband made it a few years ago. Again, keeping it real, I wanted to take my pictures with my full set up. I use tons of lights to take images for this site.
There is also a PVC pipe setup that helps me to shoot videos for this site. NOTE: Any bloggers that want more information on my set up can see that here.
The craft table itself contains storage on both sides. I also have a lazy susan on the right with mason jars holding things like paint brushes, scissors, and pencils.
On the left, you can find a couple of hobby holsters hanging off the table. They are great for storing glue guns and sticks.
The end of the table next to the window holds more supplies in baskets.
The other end of the table also holds a few more supplies.
Other Organization Ideas
I have a tray of mason jars with a variety of paint pens.
You can also use a file folder organizer to hold craft supplies! This is just one of the items I use in my space for craft room organization.
The other side of the table actually has another chair. I love being able to work on both sides but also to have someone over to craft along with me!
I hope you enjoyed this little tour of my craft room. Hopefully you got some craft room organization ideas that you can use for yourself as well. Now, are you ready for some more great craft rooms?

More Home Organization Help
Do images on Pinterest stress you out because they seem more like a fairy tale than something you can actually achieve?
Don’t fall into that pretty and perfect trap. You can get clutter-free and organized without living a fairy tale life.
No one knows this better than my friend Hilary! She has an entire course for sale that is dedicated to real-life organization ideas. I love that her approach works for any family with any budget.
Check out her course and judge for yourself!
My favorite part of this course is that Hilary strives to make your home easier to clean-up, so that it takes only minutes, instead of hours. Who couldn’t use more time and less cleaning?
Plus the system can make your house look fairly put together most times of the day. See for yourself with this course!

Wow,wish my craft room was so wonderfully organized,so many great ideas Angie,so glad you shared your room.I actually have a sewing room,tiny, and a craft room,just little bigger, which has shelves everywhere we could hang them for all my stuff.Have those iris carts on top of each other, shelves in closet which is so full.
I recently got rid of all my beads since hands don’t work well enuf to make jewelry. Sent them to friends daughter in Texas who belongs to beading club, she’ll share with members. Was almost $35 to send them all. Really cut into my bill paing money so hope they pau me for beads/shipping real soon.
I was in the corner of our walk in closet for years so this space feels like a luxury! Hope all is well!
amazing craft room, i love your light set up for filing and photography!!!
What an amazing craft room! Everything is so neat, and orderly. I love the peg board, that holds quite a bit of craft supplies. The cabinet with all the baskets, and a place for paint is great too. I sure could use one of those over the door organizers. Pinning to my storage and organizing board. Thanks!
Angie,
Your room is incredible. My favorite part is the set up for photo/video and the toys for the little one.
Thanks for organizing,
K

Now that’s a craft room! I love it! There were several things that stood out to me and a couple of ideas I’ like to adopt in my own space.
Angie, I am in total awe and envy of your craft room! #goals You are one of my features on #BestoftheWeekend
I love to see how other crafters and bloggers organize their creative space – it always gives me tons of ideas to get mine in order! Thanks for sharing with Merry Monday; I’ll be featuring your craft room at our party that kicks off tonight. We’d love to have you join us again next week.
I love this room – so well organized and so bright! An inspiration for me, as now I’m trying to organize my own craft room.
I love all the ideas! Will have to implement some for my craft room
Awesome makeover! Wow! You dod a great job. Thumbs up for you!
Can I ask what the size dimensions of the room are? No one ever mentions that. I have a VERY tiny room that I am getting ready to turn into a main office space and small craft area. And where oh where did you get that watercolor print of Tennessee??!! I NEED one! ❤️
Your room is awesome and I have found several tips to use! Thank you!
The room is probably 10×15 so not that big! You can find instructions for making the watercolor here: https://www.thecountrychiccottage.net/watercolor-hoop-art/
Do you have a vintage spool collection?! I would love to hear more about it!
I do! It is more like I really really really like them and can’t find enough crafts to use them on! I keep collecting them so I just display them in those hexagon boxes. A reader actually sent me a bunch of them several years ago so those are in there too!
Love your craft room especially the craft table! Could you please send me the dimensions. I am going to try to build one for my space
I can definitely measure it!
