How to Improve A Scrapbooking Cabinet Zone

Recently, I shared my scrapbooking cabinet and how I turned it from an unused armoire to a standing scrapbooking station. Feel free to see it here. These days, I do more crafts than scrapbooking, so I wanted to update my station to incorporate the stuff I am using now to improve my scrapbooking cabinet. This way, it will include my other crafting supplies.

This week I will share with you the improvements I made to my Scrapbooking cabinet. Let's begin.

Jump to:
  • Organize the small craft items into their own compartments
  • Items can be hung on the wall interior of the cabinet
  • Use the Back of the Armoire Door for Storage
  • Stand Pens and Markers Upright
  • Use Drawer Dividers Inside Bins to Organize the Small Stuff
  • Divide Out the Similar Looking But Different Items for Easy Retrieval
  • Repurpose organizing products that are not used longer

Organize the small craft items into their own compartments

First, I found that I had a lot of little things that needed a home. So I repurposed this bead bin organizer and added the items I had to it. This helped me see right away that I didn't need to keep the mess of the small items in one bin.

Then I decided to hang my scissors (scrapbooking and regular) in the inside of the scrapbook cabinet sidewall to give me room in the drawers and to help me see the items better. I used 3M Command hooks (large) to hold the scissors. They were able to hold two to three scissors per hook.

Use the Back of the Armoire Door for Storage

I found these short behind-the-door mesh shoe holders from Amazon. This allowed me to hold my Cricut Iron-on rolls. I used small binder clips to keep the mesh tout and folded the excess fabric. I used a larger rubber band to keep some of the rolls from falling over.

Below are the options from Amazon. I will receive a small commission if you wish to click through and purchase.

Stand Pens and Markers Upright

I found that having my markers standing up in a bin was the best for me. It helped me see what I had and what colors they were. It also held markers that were for crafting, not just acid-free markers.

Use Drawer Dividers Inside Bins to Organize the Small Stuff

Since I started doing fabric designs for the house and clothing, I had to create a section for my fabric and craft paints. I also needed a place for my glue gun and sticks. I used a wicker serving bin about 4 inches high and added an Ikea drawer organizer to divide the different paints and sponges. This is stored in another cabinet but will eventually be incorporated into the scrapbooking station.

Divide Out the Similar Looking But Different Items for Easy Retrieval

On the other armoire door, I added another short shoe holder. As you can see, I added binder clips to this one to make the openings taut. Labeling the top part of the bins helped me remember which is regular vinyl and which is for fabric only.

Repurpose organizing products that are not used longer

Another scrapbooking cabinet organizing idea is to repurpose organizing products you no longer use. I also had a lot of unique ribbons and gems from other craft projects I had done on the blog, so I needed to create a space for them. After removing the scissors, I found the drawer was a perfect place to hold these items.

Well, there you have it. The updates I made in my Scrapbooking Cabinet Zone were very helpful and made me creative and less stressed when crafting. After all, crafting should be a relaxing hobby, not a stressful one. Do you agree? What do you think of these tips? Please comment below to share your thoughts. I would love to hear from you.
