Crafters' Dream Closet

I have been talking about my craft closet for a while now--but as with anything I buy the materials and then it takes weeks for me to complete the project. 

With the projects I do, the materials I have for the kiddos I work with, and the large abundance of kids games (a sad thing really since I don't even have kids), I wanted to make use of one of the two small closets in my office. 

I have had racks on the wall for a while that hold paint:

And up until now they were also holding various other things--that would often fall through the grates onto the floor.

Annnnd the rest of my stuff looked like this-- Like a craft store vomited.

Eventually I was able to go to Lowe's and buy some pre-finished shelves, and brackets--they then rode around in my trunk for a few weeks--until a few weekends ago when I was able to get them on the wall! Again not an easy task I had a faulty drill--so I had to do the dreaded; ask a neighbor--eek.

I also bought the wrong screws so we had to make a last minute trip to the hardware store--no task with me is ever easy.

I finally finished buying baskets today! 

Here it is:

Crafting will be much more relaxing when I can easily find my materials.

Also, I wont be worrying about my dog eating buttons or tissue paper. 

Happy Crafting.
