Craft wall: Organisers

How I finished cleaning my craft area with more organisers

Today I'll tell you more about the other half of my creative wall—this time with almost no drawers, just a lot of compartments.

In the last post, I described the whole drawer part of the creative wall. Why isn't that enough for me? Because I want some tools visible all the time, so that I can pull them out quickly and not constantly look for them in the drawers.

I chose an almost identical approach to the pencils in the computer wall project. I used a 21.7 centimetres height again, with a depth of 10.5 centimetres and a width of 14 centimetres.

Organiser with wider compartments

Because there are no drawers in the compartments, I didn't bother much with millimetres and divided the organiser into parts a little randomly. I was thinking more about printing and pulling out tools.

The angle of inclination was only 30 degrees—nothing the printer could not handle even at 0.3 DRAFT quality.

I was halfway there. I wanted two organisers, but the other had to be divided into smaller, narrower compartments.

I chose the width of 14 centimetres again, but this time the organiser had three different sections that interconnected. I achieved this in Fusion 360 with Constructs.

I chose an angle half that of the first organizer, the one with wider compartments, which was 30 degrees. I used only 15 degrees here because I wanted to pull out smaller things easily.

I probably don't need to mention the 0.3 DRAFT print quality anymore.

We're not done yet. I saw room for improvement and using the empty lower spaces. It's time for more drawers!

There is space for two larger and three smaller drawers.

Although it might seem completely useless and that such drawers could not be used for much, I found a use for them.

I filled the wall with everything as I planned. What do I have there? Smaller brushes divided by type and usage. Quilling tools. Small files. Cutters. Tweezers. Piercers. A pair of pencils. Adhesives. Small scissors. A lot of things.

And this is what my wall looks today, along with the other half. I'm very happy with it.
