    Ceri, I just found you! I'm a newbie. I love your videos! I'm watching each one over and over. I love your art! I am learning so much. I've had such trouble finishing a piece of art because I overthink it. I'm so excited to try your way of "mass production" to avoid overthinking and getting stuck . You're organization is wonderful. I can't get enough of your videos! Thank you!!

    I’m afraid you would flat line if you saw my workshop. My husband is a leather worker and I’m a papercrafter, so the workshop has a wall down the Center with sliding doors. It is somewhat organized but it’s a constant work in progress. I was/am a seamstress, then a quilter, beads, then sea glass art, I like thrifting, now paper …so now the workshop is remnants of all :-). Thankfully I’m now retired. I don’t think I’m capable as brig as retired as you are but I wish I were. Thank you for sharing your wonderful craft studio.

    That’s a great craft room! Nicely organized & a desk that fits you, I’m short so I don’t have that issue! I’m a pack rat but I’m setting up a new space for my crafts, so I have incorporated many shelves, baskets & drawer sets such as yours. I bought 2 rolling carts (which won’t be moving) with 20 drawers each, that are probably about half the size as your wall of trays. And much like you, each holds a specific type of craft. My favorite are the drawers that hold all my black & white products & the other has all my metallic products. That way I no longer have to look for look through paint, pencils, markers, inks, etc. to find every product! Thank you for giving us a peek at nearly everything in your space, it’s a very airy & bright room, with a definite feel of serenity! It is your happy & safe place! Erica❤

    What a lovely tour! Thank you for this. Not only does it give me ideas, it gives me hope that I'll one day get my room set up in a way that I can just walk in and get to crafting.
    You and I are so similar in our tastes (I will say I'm a little less butterfly and a little more Halloween, but that's the only difference I've spotted so far, lol). As you were walking around and describing your set up, it made something click for me. I think I've been trying to organize in too strict categories. Your way is much more practical and probably easier to maintain.

    @southernbiscuits1275 Před 2 lety

    I'm right there with you when you speak of keeping things tidy. It takes less time to keep things straight than to have to clean up an area that looks like a bomb exploded. I am also someone that does not believe in maintaining a lot of supplies. Most everything I do is done digitally. I use digital kits from Etsy as well as images I get off the internet to make my books. I do not sell anything and I only have one friend who will even look at what I create so it makes no difference where I get my images. I use Photoshop to audition various graphics to create a page. When I decide on what images I want to use, I size each piece to fit the design I like for the page. Each element is printed separately, cut out individually and adhered to the page to match the design on the computer screen. My craft room is one corner of my bedroom. I have an "L" shaped computer desk where my computer is on one desk, the printer is on the connecting piece and the second desk holds my Cricut die cutting machine and is where I put my pages together. Crafting is a hobby that passes time for me in my retirement. I have too many other interests in my life to allow crafting to become an obsession. Neat and orderly and minimum space is what makes crafting stay in its place in my life. Otherwise, I would be wasting money chasing after that next piece of supply I see others on CZcams using. Too many children going hungry in the world to allow that to happen.

    • @CeriGriffiths
      @CeriGriffiths  Před 2 lety

      I hear you, we must all find our own personal balance with creativity. I have a fair amount of supplies but I do use them all as I run my business and income streams from my creative space and all of my jobs are art related, I’m definitely not a hoarder of art supplies. I also use photoshop to create my digitals however I’m currently experience software issues with photoshop so that’s got to get that sorted. Enjoy your art and stay safe.

I have the wonderful luxury of having an 8 foot by a 5 foot wide cutting table that my father made for me a long time ago and I absolutely treasure it, but when I work I find myself with such a disorganized mess that I only have about 6 inches of space to work 😂

      Lol........I think because I’m OCD it makes me control my working areas, if I get overwhelmed with clutter I shut down and don’t even want to go into my room let alone create. Tidying up at the end of each day gives me a sense of accomplishment although I only tidy if the project is completed as it makes no sense cleaning up when I’m back in there the next morning. I also destash regularly, because I demonstrate on shipping channel TV shows it’s easy to accumulate masses of free supplies so I pass them on, it’s my way of supporting others.

      Thank you Ann, the dragon eggs are still an idea, not sure how I’m doing them yet but as I normally do I get an idea and let it mature in my imagination.

    I love that you call your space the “Craft Cave”. I have a large (20 X 40’) converted third car garage. I call it my “Girl Garage” instead of a “She Shed”. I moved from a small 10 X 10’ bedroom. I have learned that it doesn’t matter how much space you have, it will never be enough! You always find things to fill it up! I’m pretty organized, but you are the MASTER!

    So organised. My craft room would give you nightmares! I like to think of it as a work in progress, I have started to do some serious de-stashing.However if things are too neat I find that I cannot create.

      Lucy, the secret is to find the balance between clutter and creativity that works for you personally, I just get overwhelmed by mess and shut down.

    Thanks for sharing your space. The thing I appreciate the most is not only is it organized, it's personalized by you decorating the storage boxes and drawers etc. It keeps it feeling creative and not like a craft room built by ikea or the container store. I love it ❤

      Thank you, my HP seems to have lost momentum, I’ve added all of the photographs from my visit to HP world but not gone any further, I think I’m going to revisit HP world and reignite my love of it also expand the journal to include the fantastical beasts and secrets of Dumbledore movies as I feel it’s right to add them.

    Hi Ceri. I found this video a few days ago and have been looking forward to watching it while doing chores; watched it the first time while stirring some tapioca pudding that my hubby loves. Started watching it again more closely while folding laundry tonight. I love how you display pieces you’ve made, and how you covered storage boxes with your beautiful gelli prints. It makes your space so personal and inviting! I’m so inspired to decorate some of my storage pieces and include more things that I love into my creative space! I love the greenery too; I am a plant lover as well. My desk is fairly deep, so I placed several wooden ikea drawer units along the back for markers, cutouts of flowers, birds and butterflies from wrapping paper, tags I’ve die cut, and other small bits and bobs. I plan to paint the fronts with chalkboard paint and label with a chalk marker since the contents tend to change. I do love your collaged drawer fronts though. My desk sits in front of 3 tall narrow windows, so of course I have covered the tops of the drawer units with several houseplants. I hand painted some of the clay pots Mary Engelbreit style, as she is my favorite designer. I fell in love with her colorful, whimsical style many years ago, and she inspires me to create with joy. I would love to know more about your beautiful bottle lamps, as well as your fairy houses. Please consider doing tutorials for these projects. I’m also interested in your sectioned ephemera boxes, but I see you have a video up already, thanks. I’m interested in your ephemera book as well. Thanks so much for sharing your creative space with us, it really inspired me to organize my space a bit better. I really could use some project bins to help corral the clutter.

    • @CeriGriffiths
      @CeriGriffiths  Před 2 lety

      Thank you Linda, you’ve pretty much named the videos that are on my “To Film” list, the fairy houses, the bottles and the ephemera folio are on the list but they require time to film and I never seem to have enough of that commodity, one day they will be made I promise.

    You are so organized! I am pretty much but I find that I have too much of what I no longer use and less space for what I have now that I do use. Your video has given me perspective. Thank you Ceri. Time to cull I think. Your chair looks uncomfortable btw but you mentioned you frequently stand at the camera. Love everything you do!

Things have even spread into the dining area, that's where all the jewelry making stuff made it's way to. The two bedrooms are the "JoAnn's" Room and the "Michael's" Room. Too bad we can't include videos....ugg 😳 Mirsades

    I loved seeing your studio, and love seeing your fairy houses ❤️❤️❤️, I’m like you I need to be organized. I have finally figured out a system for storage that is working, but it took me a year since I moved my studio ,. As we work in our studios things finally tell us where they need to live. 😉
    Your studio is so warm, friendly and inviting, i love it. Thank you again, Ceri, for sharing your “safe space” with us and sharing your ideas. ❤️
