My set of main drawers are numbered then alphabetized ie 2-A, 2B thereby indicating the place. Works great because if you are looking for ie staples you do a search (Ctrl+F) for staples and it will give you the place where your staples are. Just keep your names easy to remember - easy to find. Remember to put back in the same drawer you took your supply out!!! I printed it and inserted it in a binder and when there are additions or changes, do them by hand - when page gets very messy, I insert them into my sheet. Each set of drawers have a separate tab. Can be done in columns in Google doc and same idea do a find except that if you have a large supply, the number of pages will be endless!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5129045749148622998.post-18569807821148723222022-07-16T17:57:35.844-07:002022-07-16T17:57:35.844-07:00Such a great idea.

If I put everything in a binder to take to the store I would need a big binder. I have so many stamps and dies and everything else. lol.

My late husband built my craft room and for the past 2 years have not had the desire to do anything, but now I am almost done. I am so excited, I am ready to use it again. I do have an inventory of my cricuit cartridges. I sketched an example of my craft room, divided it into zones. Then I numbered the zones, and added what was in each zone. Thank you for your advice on the inventory. I really enjoy reading and implementing others ideas.

Yes, that's why I love you idea. I think the first "book" I will make will be for the crafts I have planned to do with the grands. I have been putting the supplies in tote bags but it's not working as well as I thought. Listing projects,supplies and where the supplies are stored will help the grands and myself have more time to craft.AND teach my grands organizing!! My mind is reeling with the books I can do to make the room work. Thank You for sharing this idea.

I’ve already cataloged all of my sewing patterns. The app is very easy to use and lets you add and customize different fields to capture all kinds of information about each item (brand, pattern name/number, pictures, barcodes, categories, fabric/notions needed). You can even add toggle switches to indicate if you used the pattern/item (true/false logic). I’m currently building another database/catalog for my other crafts. Best thing, it all fits on my phone which I always have with me.

I'd say I have at least 99% of them stamped and numbered. your idea of the punches is good too. But i'm having an issue inventoring my thinlets and dies. If you have any suggestions, let me know.dzzylzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09092561659054567582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5129045749148622998.post-70684930351515981292018-06-08T14:05:10.992-07:002018-06-08T14:05:10.992-07:00Niiiiiiiice!

I include the basic size, colors (if punches), the date, where purchased, how much I paid, item number, item name, brand/designer and where I hope it stays stored. I keep it sorted by item name so I can look up, "butterfly", for example, and see what I have.
