Wow, can I say that I was shocked at all the comments I got from the last post about my Craft Closet? I had no idea! I seriously got more comments on that post than when I announced I was getting married.... We must all take our crafting pretty seriously!

Since there were a lot of questions asked regarding where I got my stuff, I figured it would be easiest to post it all, so here we go!

Where did I get this fabric?









That is not a simple answer. This fabric is all from Joel Dewberry's Ginseng Line. I bought all of it online, but from various sources. I usually look at websites like quilthome.com, fabric.com and fatquartershop.com to figure out what fabric I want. And then I hunt the web for the best deals. In this case, I bought most of it from an Ebay seller. This particular fabric is homedecor fabric so its a little heavier and wider than normal.... which is the next question - what am I making??? And I am not going to tell, you'll have to wait and see when it is done! HA!

The Magnet board is from IKEA and man is it strong!









These magnetic jars with dividers are from Michaels (use a Coupon!)









Super strong magnets from IKEA









These holders are also from IKEA.









Where did I get the ribbon holder?














I got it at Michaels (use a Coupon or wait for them to go on sale for 40-50% off -it happens often!). I think it was around $15 or less. The only bummer is that the rods don't fit most of my ribbons. But I just bought a couple of cheap dowels, may not be as cute, but I really don't care!

Here are some more highlights from the closet:
This paper holder, divider thing is also from Michaels, again used a 50% coupon and it was definitely under $20.














This might be my favorite thing of all. This sweater hanger thingy I got at Burlington coat factory for around$8! Its so aweseme - not only does it have the dividers in the main body that I can use for fabric, projects and other stuff... But the backs and the sides have all these great pockets, so everything I ever need is right in reach! LOVE IT!





































I used some magazine holders (from IKEA) to put 8 1/2 x 11 paper in as well as magazines of course! And a big plastic paper holder from Michaels for my 12x12 paper.














The table is from Costco and it measures 4 ft x 2ft. Its perfect! I love having it there, its not really big enough to sew on, but its perfect when I need to whip up something quick for Young Womens, or a birthday card or some other random craft I come up with!

Cool! Can I ask how much the magnets were at Ikea?

Cindy, I remmeber them not being bad... IKEA website says $2.99 for a four pack and that sounds about right. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/70159483

I couldn't find the ones that held the scissors and pens on the website... but I think a 2 pack was probably around $5. The Magnet board was $10-$15 I think.
