Five Craft Room Ideas
I have been neglecting my Friday Fives! As I spend every spare minute tidying up the basement work area, I hope that orginization will equal productivity. As I toss, recycle and sort, I'm looking for new ways to organize things, especially the itty bitty pieces.

Better Homes & Gardens has tons of slideshows of craft rooms, but they also have annoying ads that pop up every second slide. It's almost worth it for the ingenious ideas - here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here. Their quiz also confirms I'm a piler, not a filer.

Speaking of itty bitty storage, I need to start liking Altoids as Design*Sponge's Altoid Tin message board seems like a perfect solution.

Now, I have a lot of paper and I thought about buying a new paper tower, but this solution is much more thrifty. I actually have a set of grid cubes like this, and zip tied them together in the past to make a display.

LJ has it's own yourcraftroom, although it looks like it could use a boost!

And lastly, when everything is spic and span, I'll post some pictures to the Craft Room Flickr Pool.
