Tips on Organizing your Craft Supplies
1. Decide how you're going to organize your supplies (by color,
theme, size)
2. Decide how you want to store them (bins, cases, caddies,
holders, etc.)
3. Decide whether you need portable or stationary storage -
depending on your type of hobby
4. Be aware of the limitations of your crafting space for
shelving or cabinets
Storing your Supplies
1. Be sure that your supplies are away from dangerous situations
(extreme heat or cold, within reach of small children, accessible
to pets)
2. Be sure that your supplies are stored in child proof
containers or that you have non-toxic items, such as paints or
adhesives (if you have children in your home)
Types of Craft Organizers

you can easily see the contents.
