How to Get Creative with Organizing Your Yarn, Fabric and Crafts

When it comes to storing my yarn and craft supplies I have a habit of just placing the yarn in baskets like the ones above, which is great for mobile projects. But when it comes to storing items I typically keep them in a closet or use storage cubes to place the items in which work well but I need a few ideas for smaller spaces and work spaces.
 
 
 Storage Cube Baskets work great for all sorts of crafts and storing small items and toys.   The first thing I wanted was a work area that I could use in a small space but still be able to store a few of my craft and work supplies in .  
The Foldaway Mobile Workcenter was perfect for a small space or room.   You can easily make it into a desk or fold it away to store it in a corner.  It is about 44 x 16 as a desk and it folds  Folded 29 1/2″H x 16″W,
 The Shoe Chest works well for yarn skein storage. You can hide it away in a closet or place it in your work area for easy access. 
 
  Document Boxes and Files are wonderful for holding patterns, small items, magazines and more.  Plus they can easily fit in corners, under beds and in closet spaces. 
 This Readers Stand makes a great tool for holding crafts and books while you work on them in your living room or bedroom.  Also ideal as a nightstand. The two-sided access makes sorting and selecting a cinch. Each compartment is nearly eight inches high.
