Let's face it – art supplies are to artists what shoes are to Imelda Marcos. And while I'm not advocating keeping 3000+ pairs of shoes (I mean types of art supplies) in your studio, I do know having an organized work area helps with the creative process.
And keeping art supplies organized in one spot can save you time and money! When you know what you already have, you avoid purchasing duplicates. Plus you can see when a supply is running low so you don't ever run out of something.
I hope these art storage ideas give you some inspiration (and better yet, more room!) on organizing your creative workspace. Please share these ideas with your fellow artist friends and add your comments and ideas below. I want to hear your favorite ways of storing your supplies and finished work!
