I like to say that "crafting and buying craft supplies are two different hobbies." The question for today is what do we do with all of the craft supplies once we get it home. For some they go in small bins for others they have shelves. If you are like me sometimes they stay in the bag you bought them in as you slowly use what you need. The hardest part of crafting is finding good storage pieces to hold all of the supplies.
I took some time to shop around and find some fun and unique storage pieces that can be used by all crafters from carts, stackables and desk storage. I grouped similar items together to give you variation and options. They are all here for inspiration for you, but if you see one you like you can click the picture, it will take you to the item online for purchase. Whether you have a small crafting space or a large one these are all perfect for you.
Rolling Cart Storage
Rolling carts are a crafting staple, pretty much every crafter has one. There are so many styles and variations. Which is great because I found some really unique ones, to help you store some of your larger items.
Rolling carts are a crafting staple, pretty much every crafter has one. There are so many styles and variations. Some of them have drawers like this silver and white rolling cart. I like that there is a variety of drawer sizes to fit larger and smaller craft items like resin molds, yarn, paint bottles.
Dimensions: 15.25"D x 25.25"W x 32"H
I also like that this one has a small cutting board on top which is helpful for my sewers and cricut creators. The smaller drawers can be used to store your smaller tools, paint brushes, paper. They make these in a variety of colors and can be found in most craft stores as well.
I like this next rolling cart for my cricut users, because it has built in rolled vinyl storage. It also has two shelves for your cricut any accessories like a Iron on press or the mug press. The top shelf also has useful hooks on it for you to hook your tools and mats on. I do like the fact that it has so much vinyl storage since if you work with it you know storing it is a pain.

You could sort by vinyl type, color,etc. I would put my favorite vinyls on this cart, the ones you use all of the time. This would allow you easy access to them while you are working. You can also wheel it over to the computer or printer as needed.
This style of rolling cart is very popular and even if you do not craft this is a great addition to your home because it has so many uses. I like this one because it has hooks and little contatiners that can hold pens and other items. I would recommend this cart to my painters, alcohol ink artists, and beaders.
