- Hi guys, welcome to my craft room!

This has been a long requested video

ever since I moved into my new apartment

about five months ago.

I finally have everything in place and organized

pretty much the way I want.

So, I thought it was about time

that I showed you guys around.

When Michelle and I were looking

for a new apartment down in LA,

one of the things I really wanted

was an extra bedroom just for my craft supplies,

and that's what I have.

This entire room is just for craft supplies

and making things and shooting videos

and it's kind of awesome.

Also, it's usually not this clean.

I just cleaned everything up

so that it wouldn't look gross on camera,

but usually there's like stuff everywhere.

So, let's get started.

So, this desk was actually Michelle's,

but this room was kinda the best place to put it

so I use it as my crafting desk.

I have my massive cutting board from Fiskars

which they sent me a while ago

and it's just so good.

I love it so much, just having so much space to work on.

I also keep my camera lenses here,

I have my macro lens and my wide angle lens.

And then I also have this box

which I just keep the kind of basic craft supplies

that I keep reaching for in pretty much every project.

So, I have some packing tape and some artist's tape.

I have some white and black thread.

In here are some straight pins for sewing.

And sewing needles, E6000, a measuring tape,

some erasers, some extra Exacto knife blades,

and a pencil sharpener.

A metal ruler, a gritted ruler, scissors,

more E6000, which the top is actually kinda stuck on here,

so, I might not be able to finish using this one

unless I can figure out a way to get that off.

And then I have a few Sharpies, a black pen,

a few pencils, my bone folder,

and then my utility knife, and my Exacto knife.

Over here are some large pink crates

which I actually just got these crates from Target

like a week ago

because I had some that were just on the floor,

but now these stack and also they're colorful.

And they were only a few dollars each.

So, this one has bubble wrap and tulle

and just like random kind of packing stuff.

In here I have past DIYs that I have done

that aren't on display anywhere.

So, there's all kinds of stuff in here

like, you probably recognize a lot of this stuff

if you can even see it.

And then in here I have some random

costume pieces, so like wigs and crowns

and stuff for a photo booth.

Just to have those kind of all in one place.

In this one, I have materials that

I'm planning to use in future DIYs.

So, I have a wreath form, some old oatmeal containers,

some LED lights, just kind of random stuff

that I plan to use pretty soon.

In this one are Ziploc bags

full of just random supplies

like binder clips and magnets

and forks and Popsicle sticks and Easter eggs.

Just like little things that I have a lot of each one.

So, I throw them in a Ziploc bag and put them all in here.

And then in this one is just fabric.

So, it's lace and stuffing

and just random old T-shirt fabric

and fabric I've started cutting up.

And yes, I don't wanna take all that out

because I folded all nicely so it actually fit.

So, this wall is kind of a new thing.

It's like this giant collage

that I just started putting together.

And some of it is DIY stuff,

some is just random like design stuff

I have collected over the years,

some of it is photo booth pictures

and maybe someday, I'll do a video

going through what everything is.

Let me know if you guys wanna see that.

Over here in the corner we have my color printer

and then underneath we have my laser printer

which also has a scanner attached.

And if you want to know what kind of printers those are,

I'll have a link down below

with a list of all of my equipment.

And then next to it are extra cutting mats

and just kind of large scrap paper

and large printer paper and bags

and just kind of tall, flat things

that can all just kind of slide in here.

So, now we're moving on to kind of the bulk of my supplies

are in these cabinets which are from

the Martha Stewart collection at Home Depot.

I'll go through what's on top.

So, here I have some scrap paper

and then underneath is printer paper,

both cardstock and nice paper,

and then just normal computer paper.

In here, I've got some colored pencils,

some rubber bands, my collection of bottle caps

which I might use for a DIY at some point, wooden dowels,

pipe cleaners, I forgot what are called for a second.

We have paintbrushes, all kinds of different sizes

of paintbrushes.

These are little LED candles

which I might use for a project at some point.

In here is my bucket of Washi tape

which is kind of overflowing

so I might need to put that into a bigger container soon.

Here I have some random fabric scraps

that I cut off of a shirt that I kinda DIY'ed.

Then, we've got a bunch of mini Sharpies

and my fine-tipped Sharpies

and my normal tip Sharpies,

what are these called, just regular Sharpies.

In here, we have a bunch of pencils

and charcoal pencils and blending sticks.

There's kinda drawing supplies.

And then, in here, we have thumb tacks.

Moving on to this side of the top of the shelves.

So, in here, we have different color thread

and also another fabric measuring tape.

Here, we have my Prismacolor markers.

In here are various gel pens and black pens

of different sizes and weights, just kind of random pens.

These are some extra bracelets from a DIY

that I did over on Handmade which you will see very soon.

Here, we have some random little bits and bobs and things

that are left over from other projects

that don't really have a home

so they just kinda all live in here.

Same thing with this, these are some projects

I just did on Handmade.

I'm not exactly sure where I'm gonna put them yet.

So, for now, they just live in this little heart container.

Then, we have thing of Q-tips

and a thing of crayons and other...

These came with a canvas, I'm not exactly sure what they do,

but maybe someday I'll figure that out.

Then, we have this plastic container

which has little jars of little, tiny supplies

that I wanna keep together.

So, we've got some spikes and some brads

and some buttons and jump rings

and just little things like that.

In here, we have some tiny, little laser cut pieces

that I made as an experiment.

Not sure exactly what I'm gonna do with these,

but at some point I'll figure it out.

Here, we have a little flower pot full of extra chalk.

And then my collection of those pizza stand things.

Does anyone else collect these?

I need to figure out a DIY for these at some point.

Here we have some extra heart containers

so that when I have other little, tiny bits and bobs

I can just stick them in here.

And then, here, we have my pin cushion mason jar thing

that I made over on handmade

and I keep a bunch of pins in here.

And then, this is some colored markers

which I've had since college.

We wrote "Bucket o' Fun" on there.

These were actually a gift from John Meta,

and I've kept them and they're really pretty.

So, coming up here to the top shelf,

we have two things of different colors of embroidery thread.

Then, we have this fun green container

which I put sequin string, what is it called,

just sequins in.

Another thing with little bits,

all these are just kind of little bits and things

that don't really have a home anywhere else.

Then, we've got some paper clips and Easter eggs

which I guess go together, not really, maybe.

And then, we have a large gold heart

full of hangy things that you put on the wall.

And then these were blown out in the other shot,

but in the back, I just have more containers

which I'll grab whenever I need them.

I like to give myself room to expand.

Some of them have things in them

like that one has straws, that one has more straws,

there's some ribbon and some tape and then crepe paper.

And then, the window has these really ugly vertical blinds

so to try to mask that a little bit,

I put this thing of tulle that I had

so it just goes up and then I have my map globe thing

which I made over on Handmade

as well as my map bunting which I made a few months ago,

if you remember that video, you've been watching

like a year ago, you've been watching for a long time.

And then, just some colorful paper lanterns

on either side to balance it out.

So, coming down to the first group of nine cabinets.

Up here, we have a basket

full of kind of small tools and supplies.

So, like hole punch and my awl and screwdrivers

and just kind of random stuff like that.

Oh, that's where that went.

I was looking for my paint stirrer

and I couldn't find it, and there it is.

It was in there exactly where it should have been.

Underneath that, I have this drawer

which doesn't actually have much in it,

just a few little like decoration things.

So, yeah, at some point I'll fill that up

with more stuff once I buy more supplies.

I should not buy more supplies.

Underneath that, we have a basket

full of all of my glasses.

This is my costume glasses collection

which I cannot actually wear any of these in public

because I need normal glasses and I don't have contacts,

but I just really like decorating glasses.

Down here is just some random scrapbook paper

and then this folder has all of my sandpaper

of several different grits.

And then, I have more paper lanterns,

a few extra canvases, and just kind of random paper

that didn't fit in the other thing of paper

which I will get to soon.

Up here, in this guy, we have all my spray paint

of various colors and I definitely have room to expand

in here and I really want to

because I've been so into spray paint lately

now that I have a place outside

where I can spray paint things.

Down here, I have another one of these drawers,

and on top is my map collection

and then also my giant things of paint chips

that I found on the side of the road

in San Fransisco like a year ago.

And then, inside is some tissue paper and then some felt.

And then, down here in this basket

are just random little toys,
