My 2023 Craft Room Tour

See how I moved my craft/dining room into my upstairs office, and created a small paradise of craftdom. Or at least that's the story I'm going with!

I just wanna say: for a non-tech person (like myself) your tech corner is downright terrifying! Holy moly! 😮

Thank you for doing Craft Room Tour, Cathy! It took me 2 hours to finish watching it, because every 5 or 10 minutes I started to do research or organize my craft desk, LOL. It's so motivating!!

The stencil storage binders: put some black, or dark, paper behind each stencil so that you ca see the pattern. Then you can also add another stencil on the back!

Your new art studio is so beautiful and designed like a professional architect would do. So well thought out. Looks like a dream art studio. I am so proud that our relationship had time to grow into supporting each others dreams.

One more thing, i LOVE OLD HOMES!!! One day i'd love to watch a video showing off your beautiful home! ❤

It’s nice that you still have craft/ dining if you still want to be with your peeps and you want to die cut or color or whatever. That way you can work on something and still be with them. I can see you working alongside the littles. That is definitely happy vitamin d lighting in there!

I love your studio. It is absolutely wonderful. I love how organized you are. Thanks for sharing. I am now calling my room a studio. Because I am not just a crafter, I’m an artist. Sandy Allnock an artist on YouTube from Washington State and you helped me realize this. Thank you 😀

I love your craft room. I enjoy watching other people's craft rooms. To me it inspires me to decorate, organize and create. I also love the wall color in your room. It’s a warm color but not a dark color that will make the room dark. Plus I love that green color.

"You need to look away, Let's move on" Oh my gosh Cathy, you are just such a riot! Its always so much fun to watch you! Great space and organization, I love your ideas!

Thank you for the tour. My 2 yr old grandson calls my craft area 'Gram's mess '. The video has given me inspiration to organize. 😊

I ended up in hospital for a few days and I just got home and had the joy of watching your craft room! My fav part is where you actually do your crafting! Such a neat space!!❤

I love craft room tours, and I can honestly say yours is one of the best I’ve seen! I love so many of your ideas for storage. Glad you’re happy in your new craft room!

I honestly cannot say there is one specific thing I liked most!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it all.
I just retired to care for my elderly parents and after the passing of my Dad last November, I found myself with so much free time it was depressing.
I returned to embroidery, which I really enjoy and just started to dab at card making. Your craft room is so well organized, attractive and lovely. I even like your voice, soothing, not too fast at speech and believe and hope to learn card making with you! Thank you for sharing your inspiration. Be blessed!

[dmulford]

Congratulations on your craft room! You've waited a LONG time for it, and I'm sure you are enjoying it immensely!!

Grandkiddy? Jumping up?

grandkitty! it took a little while for me to realize it. 😂 “Wow, she’s cool and relaxed to allow her grandkid jumping on her furniture. 😅”

Your craft room looks great, but I do miss you saying “welcome to my craft/dining room.” It always made me smile because I used to craft at my kitchen table before I had the Container Store build a craft room for me. Enjoy your new space. I’m going to be looking for the tower where you have your TH Inks. Thanks for sharing...

[nancycrutchfield]

Wow what a great organized craft room! Very impressive. I can’t believe you used to craft in your little dining room/kitchen. You have so much cool stuff. Love it. TFS

Wonderful!! I love seeing your new craft space! I'm happy for you. Wonderful to hear your voice too. I'll have to watch this again as there are several items I've always loved and would love to purchase if they are available. Hugs, sweet Cathy!! ~ Audrina from DFW. P.S. I would treasure the most simple card from you. I can send you my address if you are willing. Am I a begger? Possibly. Probably. :)))

OH MY GOODNESS I CAN’T BELIEVE I FOUND YOU ON YOUTUBE!

I bought your book, Clean & Simple Scrapbooking, over 15 years ago when I first got into scrapbooking, way before social media, back when I was in high school. Saw your video pop up on my feed, immediately recognized your name, and was shocked! Good to see you still crafting, Cathy! Your craft room is lovely ☺️

Love your new space! Thanks for taking the time to share it and inspire us! I work in a craft/hallway - it's uber tiny, but organized and it works for me! Ikea is awesome for organizing small spaces for less money, and while I don't have a Kallax (yet), I do have several of their plain kitchen cabinet boxes (no doors!) hung on the wall for amazing paper storage. I have tons of 12x12 cardstock (I make cards and 3d projects for sale at my artists co-op)and they can handle the weight. I am obsessed with my 3 kivissle drawer organizers, so thanks for sharing that they will fit in a kallax one day!
