I retired in January and hadn't crocheted for over 20 years, went to the Dollar Store just browsed down the craft aisle and saw one lone crochet hook hanging and wow they even had yarn. I purchased them with the thought I could fill in some time and I could teach myself again. Well to my surprise it wasn't truly lost and now I crochet alot and have a growing collection of yarn, needles, other notions and realize it time to organize as this is a keeper. Thank you as I found so many of you and other great designers on as my granny would have said "this here UA-cam"😂
@@EliseRoseCrochet I love your work and designs. Your amigurumi items are superb and granny square blanket, aww ❤️. Knitting and making toys I am not touching, leaving that to to the experts!
That muscle memory, if developed long enough, doesn't disappear! It had been almost 40 years since I'd crocheted one scarf (with rather wonky sides) at age 8; my mom taught me the single crochet stitch, and it seemed to take forEVER to get the scarf to a wearable length, and once it was finished, I didn't stick with crochet. A few years ago, I became interested, but I didn't remember how to get started. Picked up a few supplies, watched a few UA-cam tutorials, made my slip knot, and with the first chains that muscle memory kicked right in. And stitch markers have helped me keep the sides from going wonky! 😊💖🧶
Someone I worked with years ago had an old photo album that she took pictures of all of her projects, in the spot next to it she had the name of the project and most of the details. I thought that was such a great idea.
I have a decent Dollar Tree 🌳 close to me. The problem is they run out of things I like. I have a few more Dollar Trees a little further out that I can visit. They are all over the place where I live. (Nashville, TN area)
My Dollar Tree doesn’t have much in store but online they have a decent selection. If you order online and pick up at store it’s free most of the time. Happy hooking! 🧶✌🏼🤗
I have made a wonderful find, and it was TOTALLY FREE!! I am a Tic Tac addict, specifically the Coca Cola ones and the orange ones. I emptied one of the large plastic containers the other day. I was more or less playing with the empty container, thinking that I'd toss it in the recycle basket. Then I peeled off the label and saw that the entire top opens on a hinge and closes very securely. A light bulb went off! I had been struggling to hang onto my tools and supplies and had even lost a couple of things and had to replace them. As I have mentioned before, I use willow picnic baskets with the lift up lids to keep my yarn in as I'm working on a project. I crochet very quickly (although not as quickly as I did before arthritis developed in my hands) so I unwind or pull all the yarn from the skein and put it, completely loose, in the basket. I can easily carry my work everywhere I go and I find that the lid keeps peoples' hands out of my yarn, while it flows out freely under the lid. I've used this setup for years and enjoy this method immensely. The only problem I have is keeping up with my little tools, etc. in the depths of a pound of loose yarn! Now, thanks to the Tic Tac boxes, I have a dozen stitch markers in two colors, a tailor's carded 18 inch measuring tape with a rubber band around it, my trusty Teflon coated yarn needle complete with the monofilament flexible eye, tucked under the rubber band, a small pair of scissors (I plan to get a yarn cutting tool) and a half dozen fabric bandaids ALL in my handy dandy Tic Tac case with the securely fastening lid! Oh, the fabric bandaids are to wrap around my left index finger where the yarn rubs it as it flows. That finger can become very sore and I've tried dozens of protectors and rings, but the bandaids work best for me. I get a box of 25 at Dollar Tree for less than two bucks! Now I always keep them close to me when I'm working. The rounded corners of my new tool case keep it from getting snagged on the yarn and the bright color of the lid (I have a white one, a yellow one and a red one) help me to locate it quickly in the basket when I need it. I now buy Tic Tacs, give most of them to anyone who wants them, then I fill the case with tools and give it to any fiber artist friends I see. Please try this method, fellow fiber freeks! You may find, just as I did, that it's the best idea since...since stitch markers! Keep on stitching! Much love from Tennessee! 😺
Those lock top snack containers are perfect for my insulin needles and used needles when I’m traveling. I labeled one biohazard for the used needles and they both fit in my insulin / meds bag. No worry about lids coming off.
My Georgie bears a striking resemblance to your Pickle, he also enjoys plastic bags, reusable bags, Bobbi pins, bread tags...the list goes on. Happy crafting!
I keep my crochet hooks and circular knitting needles in plastic school boxes. The long knitting needles are in a long, lidded plastic box. They stay clean and stack well on a deep shelf. My yarn is sorted into labeled, pretty boxes bought on sale. A work in progress usually sits in a decorative basket. I carry a big purse because I always take a small project with me. I will knit or crochet in line at the store or during a meeting. I am never bored because I always have something to do with my hands. (I make dishcloths and scrubbies all year to give for Christmas.) My scissors, stitch markers, yarn needle and crochet hook go with me in a small pencil case.
I always feel when I make something to give to someone they really won't like it. So I stepped out of the box and made my daughter a farmers market crochet bag. Well she loves it. You certainly have me some great ideas for organization. Nothing worse than needing something and you waste time looking. Thanks for so many great ideas, also thanks for the laughs. My head isn't always screwed on right, organinizing would help. Have a great day.
I don't make stuff for others anymore because I never get to see it again. I was cured from that a long time ago. I didn't know Dollar Tree had a craft isle. I'm going to go today!
Ok, your Dollar Tree is very well stocked… I can only wish I had access to 1/2 of those organizing bins and trays! I like those handled jars … always on the lookout for handy taller storage for my practically invisible beading needles, as well as doll needles. Thanks for sharing your haul 🥰
I have a bunch of hand sewing needles that were scattered in my sewing box. I took wide grosgrain ribbon I repurpurposed and put the needles in it. I can make the strips as long as I need to and I can find the needle I need fast. Pieces of fabric with thin batting in the middle would work too. Dollar Tree potholders perhaps?
@@nancy9478 that’s such a great idea! I have so many size needles for my (too many) craft needs … embroidery, quilting, beading, darning, and yarn crafts … I love that - thanks!
After watching this I am energized & motivated to straighten up my yarn area. My 4 teen daughter s keep moving out furniture and things they don’t want. So I am trying to recycle by using there stuff in my yarn room
Loved this video because sometimes we need new eyes at the Dollar Tree. I've shopping there so long that I pass by these things without another thought to using them differently. Thanks so much for the great ideas! I especially like the crochet hook idea as I am having a love/hate relationship with my current hook bag that has a broken zipper.
Thank you for all the amazing ideas I too like my stuff out where I can see it but also needs to be cat proof. Our Ginger tabby is named Feisty for lots of reasons. Our black cat(Feisty’s true brother) Zorro is more laid back he will lie on anything I make but he doesn’t try to destroy it. 🙂💖🐈🐈⬛🌈
I love those clear organizers... 😍😍😍 As much as I want to display my craft stuff, I can't because of the dust and everything. I can barely do craft while taking care of a toddler and infant. I can't for the life of me add more chores like cleaning/dusting the craft room every single day.
These are all awesome ideas. Thank you so much for sharing! I am praying that my Dollar Tree has some of those gold baskets, for I am falling in love with them. I just wish all Dollar Tree stores carried the same items😐☺
Great ideas for uses. I am a vintage collector and when we moved to a smaller home in retirement I was having to purge. Since I was setting up a craft room at the same time I used some beautiful Fire King loaf pans to store my fat quarters. Then the wooden cheese boxes entered the chat to hold my paper craft supplies, 50's pink Pyrex bowls hold yarn balls, antique Ball jars hold buttons, old mini planters hold my crochet hooks etc. My favorite is my Grandma's bundt pan holding my lace which is all wrapped around old wooden spools. You can see where this is going, I got rid of nothing! But now it all has a use and I had to buy nothing to organize my craft room.
Oooh, so many lovely things - I wish we had Dollar Tree here. I love minty green colours! I'm a Butterfly too but I have to keep everything behind closed doors or else I would be 'inspired' all day every day and never get my work done 😂 I keep my knitting needles in an accordion (expanding) folder file - that way I can write the sizes on the tabs and pop the needles into the right pockets. Thank you for all the ideas and for another cheerful happy episode.
Seeing that you've got me hooked now, we don't have dollar tree outlets on South Africa. I decided to buy during summer as there are wool available in bulk at affordable prices. Thanks for your lovely patterns, and I am looking forward to master them. ❤
Hi Elise! Isn't it so refreshing and satisfying to organize your crochet supplies and yarn!! And especially when you find cute containers and baskets that are so affordable!!❤ After an extremely long day of unpacking boxes and moving furniture in my new home in 100 degree heat, I couldn't wait to get a cold shower and sit back and watch your video! The perfect way to finish out my day. Happy Independence Day!😊
I teach a knitting and crocheting class for free each week at our public library. Aside from Joann Wal-Mart and Hobby Lobby i utilise Dollar 🌳 Tree and 99cents stores to buy stuff at a discount for myself and my students. awesome experiences i love to crochet and knit and now teach classes.❤
I love Pickle! Scrimp says to tell him "Meow" from Memphis. Scrimp also likes crunchy plastic, it's just so much fun to chew on! I'm a newbie but I love your channel. Best Wishes!
My sister has lots of craft supplies and lots and lots of yarn. Her supplies really need to be organized. I sent her a link to your UA-cam video to share with her your many great ideas on how to organize the craft supplies. I think my sister has a ButterFly organizing style too.
Hi Elise, I just wanted to say that your knitted toys inspired me to knit. So far I've made 3 hand towels, and your Knitting 101 series gave me the confidence to try a bath mitt pattern. I'm halfway through, and I cant wait to try toy patterns from my local public library!
I need those little jars with handles!!! I knit with beads and they'd be perfect to hold my beads! (Or my stitch markers...I'm always losing them). Loved the little caddy for crochet hooks...... HONEY, START THE CAR!!! WE'RE GOING TO DOLLAR TREE! (Just wish mine had yarn, too....not that I need more, You just can never have enough :) ) Thanks for the ideas!
You remind me of myself. I have to have things out too! If I see what I have, I get inspired to use it. And things I have put away, I too, have forgotten and am surprised at what I have when I find them. I loved your idea of bringing the yarn through the basket cut-out. I had struggled for years trying to knit while keeping the yarn by my side without it rolling on the floor. If only I had thought of your idea, I'd have fun watching the yarn come through the cut-out in the basket.
Really nice ideas. I need to start keeping note books for my crochet and even coloring. I go to the Dollar tree every now and then. Ty for the ideas. They are helpful.
I can totally relate on preferring to have stuff organized, but out! Whenever I clean my room it gets messy within a week, because I just pull everything out again, and leave it on my desk or dresser. I definitely need more shelving and organizers!
Many of us creators need visual & tactile stimulation... see it, pet it... the brain tells us: "Gotta have it"; so addicting... Organizing containers in which we can see what we put in them, are the best way to store our items; in my humble opinion (IMHO). Thanks for sharing!
My Dollar Tree is not as stocked as yours. Might have to travel further to check other Dollar Trees. Btw, I love your videos and constantly looking for ways to organize my craft room to make it just as pretty as yours. 😊
I just moved and have less space for organizing my crafty items. This video has some great ideas to help me along! There is a very nice Dollar Tree not so far away. Thaank you for sharing 🙂
Great video! FYI: A lot of people in the different fb crochet groups have been buying those little pegboards to use to block squares. I don't remember what everyone is using to hold them in place. I did see one person who uses golf tees.
My favorite thing you picked up is the beach bag, I have a couple of those that I have had forever and have been looking for them. I use mine under the bathroom sink to hold my hair dryer, hair irons, brushes, combs…. I just grab the bag by the handles… I don’t need to bend or stoop down and out it goes and when done, toss everything in and pop it back under. I use the same for my cleaning supplies under my kitchen sink. They are light weight, cheap and so easy to toss things in and just reach down and grab those handles… you will appreciate not stooping more and more as you get older. I will be looking for these to store my crochet projects in. Currently I use a couple of back packs. I can put all my yarn and the project in the backpack and have pockets for hooks and scissors and well.. anything else I want to take along, crochet pattern, magazine - I also usually bring my tablet along in the bigger pocket so I can look at your videos! The backpack is great - it is very light weight - I don’t need heavy duty ones so I can purchase cute cheap ones… I can toss them around, hang them on a hook, everything stays nice and clean inside. Heading out to $ Tree to see if mine has those beach baskets, I hope they do.
@@EliseRoseCrochet I completely agree. The others always have a handful that do not fit their washers or plastic weakness that make the stud pop off but they do have wonderful quality and offer amazing noses and specialty eyes too. I love to see bigger channels support the businesses that are in it for the right reasons and care for their consumers. 💕
This is the first video of yours that I have seen. I love that you crochet and love cats! I like a lot of your ideas for organizing your yarn and craft stuff. I'll have to watch some of your crochet tutorials! I'm addicted to crocheting :D
Hi I love crocheting. I do it every chance I get. I crochet some cell phone bags for my daughter's bridal shower last month. It was in shades of purple. I love how you organized your stuff. My stuff are in bins.
Ohhhh just what I needed Elise….ideas for organizing my crochet stuff!! These are GREAT ideas & so inexpensive too. Thank you so much!! Love your videos! 🧶💜
I was talking to you through the entire video lol I was like ," I just saw those yesterday! What are you planning on doing with those??" Or " I don't have those drawers! I'm gonna have to go to another dollar tree!" Thank you for all the great ideas!
TY…for theses great DT tips! I’m just getting acquainted with our local store... I must be a “ Butterfly” also, as I so enjoy having my supplies out where I can enjoy the colors and textures- and be inspired to create!
Hi Elise Thank you for sharing these handy products and tips… I could definitely organise my crochet supplies. Take care and stay safe and well. God bless you all always 🙏🏼🧶💗🦋😻
Nice I love those ideas those are all pretty I love them I think I need some of those beautiful gold baskets 😍 I also love the turquoise baskets nice 😊 thank you for sharing with us Elise I really enjoy your videos 🥰🙌🏼🎉🎉 have a blessed week 💕
I always have more mugs than I can use. I hope you can use this tip! Mugs are perfect for storing crochet hooks! I love your clear storage containers. Thanks for sharing.
I wound up running out to dollar tree just a few days after watching this and picking up those same baskets and rearranging my yarn by color. It looks so pretty! I was already using the glass mason jars for storing yarn needles, keychain hooks, and a nice tall one ( from target) for my knitting needles. My craft shelves look more like an art installation than a cluttered mess of Rubbermaid containers and it’s definitely sparking the creativity 😊

wow! loved all your projects and your craft room is beautiful. Great haul from dollar tree
Thank you so much! 🌳💗🧶
Hi Elise, I just wanted to say that your knitted toys inspired me to knit. So far I've made 3 hand towels, and your Knitting 101 series gave me the confidence to try a bath mitt pattern. I'm halfway through, and I cant wait to try toy patterns from my local public library!
That is wonderful!!!! 👏🧶👏🧶
I need those little jars with handles!!! I knit with beads and they'd be perfect to hold my beads! (Or my stitch markers...I'm always losing them). Loved the little caddy for crochet hooks......
HONEY, START THE CAR!!! WE'RE GOING TO DOLLAR TREE! (Just wish mine had yarn, too....not that I need more, You just can never have enough :) ) Thanks for the ideas!
Haha!! Love it! 🚗🚗🚗
Can you please provide pattern for crocheted lid covers? Thanks!
I think my Dollar Trees has some of these things. Thanks so much for your suggestions! Awesome video!
You are so welcome! ❤️❤️❤️
You remind me of myself. I have to have things out too! If I see what I have, I get inspired to use it. And things I have put away, I too, have forgotten and am surprised at what I have when I find them. I loved your idea of bringing the yarn through the basket cut-out. I had struggled for years trying to knit while keeping the yarn by my side without it rolling on the floor. If only I had thought of your idea, I'd have fun watching the yarn come through the cut-out in the basket.
I'm glad you enjoyed the different ideas! 🧶🧶🧶
I like your glasses! You look really cute in them!
Thank you so much! 🤓
I just found your channel. You have solved some of my organization problems for my handmade business. Thank you for this video.
That's awesome! I'm so glad it was helpful! 🧶🧶🧶
Oh I like your little notions bag that's cute
Thank you! 🤗
The little jars with that crocheted top would be perfect for a potpourri gift.
Yes!!! They are so cute! 🧶🧶🧶
I use floss containers for buttons, safety eyes with washers tagfasteners and tags . Makes storage easier
Great tips! Thanks for sharing!! 🧶🧶🧶
Really nice ideas. I need to start keeping note books for my crochet and even coloring. I go to the Dollar tree every now and then. Ty for the ideas. They are helpful.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🧶🧶🧶
Nice bag teal one ❤
Thank you 😊
I use the little containers (orange in your video) ALL the time. They are secure and I have never had a problem with them
They really are fantastic! ❤️
That shade of teal you got for the baskets is my ABSOLUTE favorite color. So fresh!
It really is! So bright and cheerful!!! 🧶🧶🧶
I use those little jars for my yarn needles. ❤
Great idea! 🧶🧶🧶
Good heavens!!! I am soooooo glad I found this video. My Dollar Tree isn't as big but your ideas are outstanding!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 🧶🧶🧶
Love the stickers on the teddy eyes wedge really love the tags on the needle pouches very tidy ❤❤
Thanks so much 😊
I love your choice of music, and your DT purchases.
Thank you! 😊
I can totally relate on preferring to have stuff organized, but out! Whenever I clean my room it gets messy within a week, because I just pull everything out again, and leave it on my desk or dresser. I definitely need more shelving and organizers!
I definitely need mine out! If I can't see it, it doesn't exist in my mind! ❤️❤️❤️
Many of us creators need visual & tactile stimulation... see it, pet it... the brain tells us: "Gotta have it"; so addicting... Organizing containers in which we can see what we put in them, are the best way to store our items; in my humble opinion (IMHO).
Thanks for sharing!
My Dollar Tree is not as stocked as yours. Might have to travel further to check other Dollar Trees. Btw, I love your videos and constantly looking for ways to organize my craft room to make it just as pretty as yours. 😊
Thanks so much!! ❤️
the little jars with the crochet you added are adorable. Could add some popouri or scent beads to freshen your craft room
Yes! Great idea!! 🧶🧶🧶
I just moved and have less space for organizing my crafty items. This video has some great ideas to help me along! There is a very nice Dollar Tree not so far away. Thaank you for sharing 🙂
I'm glad this helped! ❤️
I went to my Dollar Tree and found a bunch too! Love the tweed and the chenille chunky
The tweed is so gorgeous! 🧶🧶🧶
I watched your video and now I went to organize my crocheting
It's so much fun to organize those crochet items! 🧶🧶🧶
The little pegboards would be perfect for blocking squares!
Yes!!! 🧶🧶🧶
First watcher. Very informative. Looking forward to your next video. Thank you!
Awesome, thank you! 🧶🧶🧶
Great ideas. I like the way your brain gets you to organize.
Thank you! 😊
Great video! FYI: A lot of people in the different fb crochet groups have been buying those little pegboards to use to block squares. I don't remember what everyone is using to hold them in place. I did see one person who uses golf tees.
Genius!! Thanks for sharing!! 🧶🧶🧶
Wonderful vid. I bought several of those mini jars for no reason-I just love them too!
They really are adorable! 🧶🧶🧶
My favorite thing you picked up is the beach bag, I have a couple of those that I have had forever and have been looking for them. I use mine under the bathroom sink to hold my hair dryer, hair irons, brushes, combs…. I just grab the bag by the handles… I don’t need to bend or stoop down and out it goes and when done, toss everything in and pop it back under. I use the same for my cleaning supplies under my kitchen sink. They are light weight, cheap and so easy to toss things in and just reach down and grab those handles… you will appreciate not stooping more and more as you get older. I will be looking for these to store my crochet projects in. Currently I use a couple of back packs. I can put all my yarn and the project in the backpack and have pockets for hooks and scissors and well.. anything else I want to take along, crochet pattern, magazine - I also usually bring my tablet along in the bigger pocket so I can look at your videos! The backpack is great - it is very light weight - I don’t need heavy duty ones so I can purchase cute cheap ones… I can toss them around, hang them on a hook, everything stays nice and clean inside. Heading out to $ Tree to see if mine has those beach baskets, I hope they do.
Thanks for sharing your tips!! Love the backpack idea!! 🧶🧶🧶
6060 eyes has been my go to supplier for safety eyes for almost a decade! They are amazing and have amazing customer service!
They are amazing!! Much better quality safety eyes!! 🧶🧶🧶
@@EliseRoseCrochet I completely agree. The others always have a handful that do not fit their washers or plastic weakness that make the stud pop off but they do have wonderful quality and offer amazing noses and specialty eyes too. I love to see bigger channels support the businesses that are in it for the right reasons and care for their consumers. 💕
Thank you Elise. Everything you purchased at Dollar Tree is both cute and practical 😊
Thank you! That's how I felt! Everything was useful and looks so pretty in my craft room!! 🧶🧶🧶
I enjoyed your ideas from dollar tree on organizing crochet and knitting supplies.
I'm so glad! 🧶🧶🧶
Such fun items and great ideas. Thank you 💕🧶

Hi
I love crocheting. I do it every chance I get. I crochet some cell phone bags for my daughter's bridal shower last month. It was in shades of purple. I love how you organized your stuff. My stuff are in bins.
That is awesome! 💜💜💜

I was talking to you through the entire video lol I was like ," I just saw those yesterday! What are you planning on doing with those??" Or " I don't have those drawers! I'm gonna have to go to another dollar tree!"
Thank you for all the great ideas!
Haha!! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! 🧶🧶🧶
These are brilliant ideas! Thank you for sharing!! 💓

I just moved with the boxes all around the home. I need to organize all my craft supplies. Thanks for the tips. Sherry
You're so welcome! ❤️
I always have more mugs than I can use. I hope you can use this tip! Mugs are perfect for storing crochet hooks! I love your clear storage containers. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! 🧶🧶🧶
All good ideas and that little jar cap is so adorable
Thank you!! 🧶🧶🧶
I like that basket as a yarn bowl!
Thank you!! 🧶🧶🧶
I wound up running out to dollar tree just a few days after watching this and picking up those same baskets and rearranging my yarn by color. It looks so pretty! I was already using the glass mason jars for storing yarn needles, keychain hooks, and a nice tall one ( from target) for my knitting needles. My craft shelves look more like an art installation than a cluttered mess of Rubbermaid containers and it’s definitely sparking the creativity 😊
Oooh!!! That's wonderful!!! 🧶🧶🧶
I keep my straight knitting needles in a pretty vase
Love all your ideas so amazing and awesome 👍😎 I love dollar tree and dollar general store too. :-)
Thanks so much! 😊
