  2. I had a jewelry box I wasn’t using and could never figure out what to put in it because it had a divider that most items wouldn’t fit into. One day I decided to see if I could get the divider out and it was actually very easy. So, I had a box with no dividers that I could now use for many things, but decided I could also use the divider (all one piece) if I put it up on my wall as a small shelf sort of like a shadow box. It has worked great to put my mini misters on, small glitter bottles, perfect pearls jars and some small jars of embossing powders. It actually freed up several other smaller containers and all those things are within easy reach and reminds me to use them.

  5. This site is an organizing challenge that goes on for 29 weeks. The blogger takes viewers through the process of organizing everything crafty. She has tips, pictures and links to other organizing sites which keeps people motivated and organized. Very helpful and encouraging!

  6. Don’t have a photo, my “office” is torn apart for painting. I use pizza boxes to store my scrapbook papers. We are lucky the shop we frequent puts the pizza on a line sheet so the box stays clean.I use them as well for small project boxes.

  7. Pizza boxes is a fabulous idea.
    Mine: votive holders and baby food jars,labeled to hold buttons sitting inside small wood crates hung on the wall

  8. I love shoe bags and stacking shelves that hang off closet rods. My craft area has an immovable pipe on the ceiling that hang the shelves off of and I just tacked the shoe bags onto the walls. They hold a lot!

  9. CanI send you a picture?
    I lived in a small one bedroom apartment and sence I didn’t use my dining room much but needed a craft room this is what I did.
    I had book shelves for books, revolving card holder for cards I made, white wire shelving, a curtin rod for ribbon. clear boxes and colored boxes. fabric shelves to hange for yarn and fabric,a bulitin board, revolving paint holders. and more the pictures show it best. How can I send them? Diane

  11. Today I did a post on my blog Stashmanicure.blogspot.com that shows an inexpensive way of organizing your fabric. I am not sure if that is what you are looking for, but you may want to check it out.
    There are also a lot of others that have contributed their ideas in earlier post.
    I set my blog up four months ago with the idea of having myself and others share ways to manicure and organize your stash of fabrics that we have on hand and to make room for more of that dreamy stuff we can not get enough of! The idea here is to rule your stash before it rules you! LOL!

Building with Nature: My Experience with Natural Birdhouses

If you’re someone who enjoys DIY woodworking projects and has a soft spot for garden wildlife, Natural Birdhouses by Maria and Amen Fisher is a must-read. I picked this book up recently and have been completely inspired by the earthy, sustainable approach it offers to building homes for birds, bats, and even beneficial bugs.

What really drew me in was the focus on using found wood and natural materials—think branches, logs, reclaimed boards, and other bits of nature you can often source from your own backyard or a nearby forest. Not only does this make the projects eco-friendly, but it also gives everything a beautiful, rustic feel that blends effortlessly into any garden or backyard setting.

The book includes 25 step-by-step projects, all clearly explained and illustrated, which makes it accessible for both beginner and seasoned crafters. Even if you don’t have a fully-equipped workshop, most of these can be tackled with just a few basic tools and a bit of patience.

I started with a simple birdhouse design, using some weathered fence boards I had stashed in the shed. The instructions were easy to follow, and I was surprised how quickly it came together. Within a couple of days of putting it out in the garden, a curious little sparrow showed up—talk about instant reward! I’ve since bookmarked the bat box project and one of the insect hotel builds for next weekend.

What I really love about this book is that it’s not just about crafting; it’s about encouraging wildlife and creating a more natural, welcoming habitat right in your own yard. It’s a great way to involve kids, too—mine were fascinated by the idea of building a bug hotel and couldn’t wait to help collect materials.

If you’re looking for nature-inspired DIY garden projects that not only look good but also serve a purpose, Natural Birdhouses is full of ideas that check all the boxes. It’s creative, environmentally conscious, and a great way to spend time outdoors while giving something back to the ecosystem.

I’d definitely recommend this to anyone into sustainable gardening, backyard birdwatching, or rustic outdoor décor. Let me know if you give it a try—I’d love to hear what you build!
