1. Maximize Drawer Functionality
The Craft Island is fully customizable, offering three different Drawer height options that can be combined to create your ideal setup. Use the shallow drawers to keep your supplies from getting buried and damaged. Whether you are using it to store your jewelry tools, quilting rulers, stamping supplies, etc., the Craft Island is ready to adapt to your needs. Start by selecting a configuration that suits your needs, and adjust it as your craft changes.
2. Keep Essentials in Arm’s Reach
With the Craft Island, your most-used supplies are always on hand. Store your favorite supplies in the Craft Island to keep them organized and prevent them from getting scattered and misplaced. Dedicate each drawer to a specific category of essentials, such as adhesives, patterns, tools, and more. The Craft Island will become your favorite place to assemble your projects and keep your craft stash in order. This crafting hub will help you save time and optimize your workflow.
3. Create a Central Project Station
A pile of supplies and unfinished project pieces can easily lead to clutter and overwhelm. Use the Craft Island to keep your ongoing projects organized and easily accessible. Dedicate a few drawers to your incomplete creations and clearly label them with Label Holders so you remember them and avoid starting new projects. Use Drawer Cups to organize your project pieces and keep them from cluttering your work surface or getting lost. You get the most out of your Craft Island when you treat it as more than just storage—make it your creative command center.
4. Organize by Hobby or Project Type
Many crafters love experimenting with different art forms and mediums. For crafters who often explore multiple hobbies, the Craft Island can be a perfect place to organize the essentials for each. Dedicate one column to scrapbooking, one for quilting supplies, one for jewelry findings, and so on. Using your Craft Island as a starting point for each project makes switching between hobbies smooth and stress-free. Keeping your basic tools and most frequently used supplies for each hobby in the same spot can also boost creativity and inspire you to create projects that combine different media.
5. Expand with Accessories & Customization
