So since we have finished renovating our basement, we’ve now been spending the last couple of months organizing it! So today I just wanted to share a little part of my “crafting side of the basement” with you today. Yes, the other side of the basement is my husband’s “bachelor pad full of all of the electronics you can name side”, with a Wii, Xbox, huge TV, speakers, games, DVDs, etc.
Top: A homemade bunting banner which I wrote a tutorial for here.
Bottom Left: This pink organizer (painted by my Dad) was my nightstand before I moved in with my husband. Now I’ve turned it into a ribbon, fabric scrap, cards, packaging, and pattern shelf.
Bottom Right: This ClosetMaid shoe organizer was purchased from Lowes. It’s perfect for storing rolls and rolls of fabric. On top of it is a thread organizer and a picture of me and my hubs! 😀 And here’s a closer look at my fabrics…
There’s certainly room for even more fabrics, don’t ya think?! 😉 I’ll share pictures of the rest of my “crafting side of the basement” once it’s a little bit more neat! And I’ve finally started USING my fabrics to make some new passport covers w/ bows for my etsy shop, here’s a peek at the first three I’ve made, which I will be listing this week!
Aww, it’s fantastic! I’m so happy you have this space now – you’re going to be crafting up a storm! Love, love the passport covers. Wishing you a beautiful week. 🙂 xo – g
looks GREAT! can’t wait to get my hands on one of those passport covers!
Dearest sweet sandy!! So happy that your basement is done and you ahev wonderful space for all your goodies!! I really LOVE your storage space and the way you store your fabrics is just lovely! I am loving your new work in progress items for your shop….i am a huge fan of bow!! have a lovely merry happy day and love to you!
Looks great and plenty room for lots more fabric! Now being a bit of a tech head/gamer myself this room as a whole is pretty much heaven to me 🙂
Your fabric rolls look so delicious! I prefer to see all the pretty colors and patterns rather than hide them away in drawers or bins. You must be having so much fun creating your own little space!
wow, great space saving ideas… the passport covers are so cute! have a great week!

I also wanted to say thanks for all your comments and your sweet words about Petunia Blooms. {{hugs}} to you!
Oh – I am SOO jealous of your cute organized fabric! I have sweet dreams of the day I finally get my craft room back. We are amidst a makeover ourselves & when it is done I will hope it will be cute & orderly….
LOL, I have the same “night stand”! I also used it as a night stand until I got married, and now it holds my craft stuff too! Only my dad didn’t paint it pink… he wallpapered each level with a flowery print :]
LOVE the banner!
That’s a brilliant way to store your fabrics! Looks like you’re really enjoying your new space and are being inspired by it.
Lovely! Love what you’ve done with the place. 😉

Great use of the shoe organizer! And your bunting banner adds the perfect touch!
your organization is great, with such pretty fabrics.
I love your sewing area! Absolutely love it! What a great idea to store the fabric in a shoe organizer! That would be PERFECT for yarn too! And oh man, do I ever need to organize my yarn! Hahaha. Thanks for the inspiration! And I love your new passport covers. I wish I was going away on a trip and needed one! 🙂 Hopefully I will sometime next year. I’ll keep my eye on them.
Well done, dear!
