Favourite Crafting Storage Solutions - Fridays With Danielle

Hello everyone!

Hope you have all had a fabulous week and are ready for the weekend. 

In todays post I wanted to show you a few storage solution, and one travelling solution I have come up since I begun crafting. If you are a fellow crafter, even a beginner, you may know the stuggle of having millions of different washi tapes, stamps, paper etc. Storing them can you a complete nightmare as you want to use everything you own!

I feel have a come up with a few different solutions which have made a huge difference for me.

The first thing I did was purchase a plastic cutlery tray from Ikea. You can buy these from a variety of different shops and they are usually really inexpensive! I use this to store my washi tape as I can easily get use out of all them now because I can see them. Its the perfect size and at the moment there is also room for quite a few other essentials! 


Do you ever such sit and stare at your washi? I love mine.


The next solution isn't exactly a genius idea but one that I am pretty happy with. Susan was playing around with ideas and made a hexagon box with a lid. What she didn't realise is that she had actually made the perfect pen holder. The shape of the box allows the pens to spread more, this means I can easily find the pen I am looking for!



The lid is also ideal for storing little bits and pieces. Would you like a tutorial on it?

I had some of these boxes from Ikea - here - that came in three different sizes and never really found functional uses for them. Until now! The smallest of the three sizes is perfect for storing store bought stickers. I also put some loose journalling cards and sticky tapes at the front. 


Finally I just wanted to mention a quick travelling solution I use as I regularly go backwards and forwards with me supplies. I love using die cuts to embelish my projects - like the travellers notebooks I like to make. Travelling with them however are difficult as once they are open from the pack they go everywhere! I just use a clear small makeup bag that I got my local highstreet/drugstore.


So there you have it! Hopefully one of you will get some ideas from this on what could help you. What your favourite crafting storage solution?
