See that above shelf? It was pretty much a blank canvas. So I hit Walmart and IKEA and got some new storage bins, boxes, and magazine files, and went to work. Here it is now!

How I Spent My Sunday
Yesterday I showed you my master bedroom closet that I organized. Today I cleaned out my basement work area (no pictures of that because it is a DUNGEON. But I also brought all my craft supplies out to my new little area of the family room. I had not previously stored my crafts where my kids could potentially access them (I had fears of glitter everywhere!), but I decided they were old enough not to go into my things without asking. Of course, that will only last so long and then they'll go into my things without permission when they get older again. But for now, I have my own craft space. This is what the area looked like...

Everything is labeled and in its place! I could not be happier!!! Crafting will be SO much easier now that I will be able to find everything. Before projects took me more time simply because I had to search for my supplies. Not anymore!

Oh my gosh Cassie...it looks so good. My office is a pig sty and needs serious help. Yours looks like an Apartment Therapy feature.

oh WOW! jealous. I especially love those legs on the table. So stinkin' cute. Thx for your comment on my new paintings.
I loooove that! And I think I have a couple of your brown Walmart boxes too! hehehe :) I need more storage soooo bad. You've done a great job!! I would never leave that room ever again. I hope the kiddos are good about keeping it in shape! <3
AWESOMENESS!!!!! It looks great (& I am in love with those storage boxes from walmart). I also really really love that metal locker basket on the bottom left. SO awesome!
Can I come over and play? :)
I love your craft space! So organized. Looking at it gave me some ideas. Thanks!
I am crazy jealous of you right now! That is every gal's dream room! Just add a cosy reading nook and I would be moving in!

Wow, Cassie! It looks like paradise! I would look at that room every 5 minutes. Oh to be that organized. Looks awesome! Enjoy it!

I am your newest follower. Great idea! Where did you get the shelf. I think I need one asap! :) Stop by my blog any time at http://alaynahoward.blogspot.com
Wow! It looks great! I love these bookshelves and your books organized by color are amazing (:
You'll love having your stuff closer to you and maybe you'll even use your stuff more. Everything looks so nice and I'm sure you feel better knowing it's all organized. Have fun!
Awesome! Loving all those bins!
What a nice space. Wish I had room for something like that.
I love your craft room. I'm working on my office/craft room/studio right now. I opted for Ikea book cases, now I wish I would've gotten those shelves instead. Everything looks so organized and functional. Good job!
Susan : )

So super organized now! I'm totally on a mission to find bins in a color that I like. I'm so ridiculously indecisive I can never choose a color!

oh gosh... and I just realized I was only following you with my google reader. Fixed that. Now both my emails are stalking you =) haha. much love!
What a productive weekend you've had :) I'm so very jealous of your craft space.
What an amazing space you have! All that organization! Makes my heart go pitter-patter!
what a great job you did! i bet it is so nice to have everything so prettily organized now. love that locker basket!!
Everything looks so nice and neat! What a fun space to craft in!
very, very, nice & organized! I know how hard it is to organize craft stuff.
ahhh love it!! come do mine now!! i have to ask... did you have to shell out a lot for the boxes or were they relatively inexpensive? i have been looking for some....
Wow, girl! You are really taking advantage of every corner of those cubbies! It looks so nice and organized :)
What a fabulous space! A place that one could get really creative in :D Thanks for linking up to "Amaze Me Monday" blog party.
Oh Cassie you are so organized! Your area looks beautiful.I wish I had an area that was that nice and organized!
So jealous. I need to organize all my craft and cake making materials desperately. There's nothing worse than not being able to find something you need, going out to buy it, only to clean up and find you had it all along. Great investment on your part. Nice job!
I would love anything that I could call a craft space. I love how you organized everything and I think it is a great idea to roll up your material...I'll be giving that a try.
Wow what a great organized area. I think I better tackle more of my bookcases to get somewhat organized.
That whole area is so organized....I need that motivation! Organizing is not my strength!
OMG!!!!! Your area is so amazing. I am so jealous, Ha, Ha. Beautiful!!!!
Oh my gosh, I am in organization awe! I love it when things are tidy and accessible like that and yet looks so pretty. You did a fabulous job.
What a fun place to play!
Love it! and very jealous of your bookshelves and storage!!!
I am seriously drooling over here! I need to re-do my room - and this just totally inspired me!!!!
That is gorgeous. I am so jealous of your shelves and matching boxes. I've organized somewhat, but not everything matches. I tried to use what I had and ended up with green and orange stuff. It looks better ~ I think ~ than it might sound.
Pure Awesomeness!!! just like you!!!
wow!! looks amazing and craft inspiring!
That is beautiful!! And the shelves were amazing even before you got all the boxes to organize things. I could use a room full of shelves like that!
Feeling a little green with envy :) You did a great job. Wanna come over and organize my office/den/stash room?
I'm so jealous of that space I can hardly see straight!!!! LOVE emmy's dresser...and so sorry about your migraine. This crazy weather can't be helping. Feel better soon, friend!
So organized and professional looking. You have your very own studio space!
Wow!! that is awesome!! I want your craft space! So when are you moving out ;-)
Hi Cassie! Hope you are feeling better! I get migraines too, and they suck. No other way to put it!
Hey, I was wondering where you got your cubby shelves? I really like them!!
Thanks,
Polly
Wow- what a great space to work! And I love how everthing has it's own spot. Great job!
Looks AMAZING !!!!! I really, really want to give my craftroom a makeover - so I'm saving these pics !

I love everything about this space! Seriously...I'm moving in! Thanks for linking up at WWC!
i too want to know where the shelves are from. ikea?
Beautiful craft space. Your colours are gorgeous & I love the organizing with the boxes. And the table legs are absolutely amazing. Thanks for the inspiration.
Wow! That is really something! I love how you have your books organized by color and how you got both black and white boxes. If I were your child, I would have a hard time resisting going through all your goodies!
Totally amazing room! And THANK YOU for the detailed pictures! I love seeing how you organized the space. It's an absolute dream room!!!
