Create an Organized & Efficient Craft Space: Tip Three
Tip Three: Keep Essential Supplies Organized and Within Arm’s Reach
Keep your most used tools and supplies organized at your work area and within arm's reach.
Why
Every crafter has a list of essential craft supplies they use for nearly every project, such as glue, scissors, and markers. However, having to search for these supplies can significantly cut into valuable crafting time. Having your supplies readily available and easy to access is key to an efficient crafting space. This strategy not only saves time but also maintains your creative flow.
How
- Identify Your Most Used Supplies: Make a list of the tools and supplies you use most frequently, such as glue sticks, brushes, tape runners, scissors, blending tools, pickers, and pens.
- Choose a Storage Solution that Fits Your Most Used Supplies: Select a storage option that holds and organizes your essential supplies, keeping them within arm’s reach and preventing them from getting lost or misplaced in the clutter.
- Be Sure to Put Your Tools Back When Finished: To help keep your work area clutter-free and prevent your supplies from getting lost or misplaced, always place your tools back in their designated storage space while crafting.
