Craft Room Tips and Tricks:
Using shoe racks and hanging mesh/cloth shelves helps me be able to see what is in storage. Plus it gives me space to rotate out supplies from the tables if I need more table top space to work a particular project.
Have you used a hanging shoe rack to organize your craft room?

Hey, Hey! I did that in my kitchen and bedroom!! Great Minds. I hung one over the closet door near the kitchen to keep spice packets and bottles in, easy to see though the clear plastic, and I hung another in the bedroom closet for belts, scarves and knicknacks. I have another hung on my bathroom door to hold things like deordorant, my favorite conditioner,shampoo, my hair accessories, combs brushes,my cats meds, It’s very convenient, but I don’t have one for my crafts! Duh, Thanks for this article, I’m gonna get another to hang and sort my crafts
You have some very interesting ideas for storing supplies! I never thought of using shoe storage hangers for supplies. Thanks for sharing and now I am thinking…..
I use alot of the hanging storage units also. The best ones I have found have been for jewelry. They have lots of small to medium slots to hold the items I have for projects. Also small drawer units you can buy at local hardward sotores are great you can label the front and always know what you have with out looking through each drawer.
Great ideas…I use baskets for storage, clear plastic bins with lids, and tackle box units to hold beads, buttons and small objects. Also plastic vegetable bins are very handy to hold misc items like fabric, wreaths, and ribbon
I love the idea of useing clear hanging shoe racks all over the house for storage! I plan on getting some for my house!
I love the shoe hangers for so many purposes around my house and in my craft room. I’m glad to see someone else thinks outside the box. I even adjusted one to hang from my passenger’s seat for use in my car. I put pencils, note tablets, comb, coins, and sun glasses in the pockets. If I have a passenger, it is easy to hang it behind the seat.
Wonderful. thanks for sharing. I have boxes and shelves in my craft room, (I do cards and knitted toys but I think I have a gramlin, I put something down and promtly lose ir. Ruth Wynyard, Tasmania,Australia
Grace L., I really like your idea of modifying a shoe hanger to use in the car! I do believe I am going to have to try that.
Kara – I have a huge sunroom (10 x 40 feet) which I am turning into a workroom/shop for my projects. I have built a 6 foot workbench out of a solid core door and put some old cabinets beneath, with old cabinets and a pegboard above. However, I need ideas for bins on open shelves to organize my “soft” crafts, crochet, knitting, sewing, etc. HELP !!!
I love your ideas, above photos. How big was that walkin closet when you started out?
So glad you all dug the post! Pixie Dance, that closet is like 3 feet wide and 5 feet deep — does that help? Good luck with the re-do on the sunroom!
Thank you for some other wonderful article. The place else may just anyone get that

I’ve a presentation subsequent week, and I’m
at the search for such information.
