Craft Room Organization: Office Supplies

Craft Studio

Hello friends and happy almost Christmas!  

I've got two more posts sharing my craft room organization; today's office supplies and one more with my solution for pretty miscellaneous storage.  The storage post will have to wait until January 6 when I return from my yearly holiday work break, but for now you can check out my office corner:

On the window ledge next to my work table are a few decorative items.  This post shows how I restyled a similar candelabra and this one gives step-by-step instructions for the block style art pieces. 

I like having the open work surface for paperwork as well as space for a laptop.  My Cricut cutting cart is right next to this table so I can hook right up and cut away!

The windows themselves are covered in removable vinyl, here is a tutorial.

Next to my desk table is a large file cabinet.  A thrift store purchase, I repainted the body in white and sprayed the hardware gold.  Instead of labels in the name plates, I added a bit of my rose printed scrapbook paper.

In the top drawer is where I keep all of my ideas and inspiration for my Esty shop.  Focusing on instant download printables and SVG files, I like to keep a running file of potential shop items.  I have a category for each season/ holiday and any time I get an idea I jot it down and tuck the paper away in the appropriate file.  Then when it comes time to design for my shop, I can just pull the file I need and work away!

The bottom drawer is where I keep my business files for both my Etsy shop and blog.  Categories like marketing, posting schedules and product information all go here.  If you check out this listing, you can purchase my set of blog/ creative business organizational printables for just 99 cents!  There are over 100 pages that you can print as many copies of as you need to help you get and stay organized.  The photos in the listing show the pages arranged in a binder if you prefer, but I like being able to grab files as I need them.

Up on top of the file cabinet is a set of medium sized plastic drawers.  
You can read here how I customized them.

The bottom drawer is stashed with extra notebooks and notepads.

The middle drawer has books and binders that contain project notes.  

For example the heart covered notebook lists all of the paint colors I use for particular projects. Sometimes I finish a project and then want to go back and add more to the collection.  It's sooooo helpful to have a list of the exact paint colors that I used!  

The constellation notebook has a list of my downloaded fonts separated by category.  My pc organizes them alphabetically, so it's nice to have a list where they are grouped by style.  All of these fonts (and more) can be downloaded for free at DaFont.com.

The top drawer has extra file folders.

On top of the medium plastic drawers are two sets of small plastic drawers, also customized.
