    Very cool lens. Such a broad subject but you covered the basics well. 5*s and lensrolled!

    Wish I had a craft closet, four of us live in a 2 bdrm apartment approx. 900 sq ft. But I do have lots of crafts supplies probably 80 to 90 persent of what you've listed. My most use cutting tool is by rotary cutter, mat both sm and lg and clear rulers. Helps me get a straight line for just about everything. I'm also enjoying my Stack and Store, for transporting my polymer clay projects.

    I have a well organized craft and art closet at home but been busy lately, no time to do some artworks. Thanks for the wonderful lens.

    Actually, The Well-Organized Craft Closet is next on my list. Stay tuned because it will definitely be announced on here when it's done!

    Nice lens! My craft closet is all over my house right now as I am preparing for a show tomorrow! Great ideas! I have almost everything! Now could you do a lens on organizing? Thanks! Ha!Ha!

    I loved your lens, very well laid out. I make corn filled heating pads. Check out cozybagz when you get a chance. We have a new line of organic fabrics and the bags are actually filled with organic corn. They are awesome.

    Great Lens! Looking at your list gave me some ideas. Too bad I don't have the time right now.

    It started out as a bin, then became a closet, and then a room. Thanks for the lens.

    Great lens, Susan! Yes, my crafty closet is full and running over too... when it comes to shopping; the crafty department is ALWAYS my first stop!
    Your photos are terrific, in a well laid out lens!
    Thanks for sharing your expertise!

    I don't recall ever having done a craft in my life, but this lens certainly makes me want to start. Here's an idea: pick a simple project for beginners and go step-by-step on how to do it.

    I've added your lens as a featured lens on my Lord Sesshomaru Costume lens. Here is the URL if you want to see where I put the link: http://www.squidoo.com/LordSesshomaruCostume

    Great list, my problem isn't that I don't have what I need when I want to craft, the problem is finding it, LOL:) I think that means I have too much of it.

    Excellent 5 star lens. I'm a FAN too. I'm gonna second flowergardener and put you in for LOTD too! Bear hugs, Frankster

    What a great lens! I just kept nodding as I was reading -- "Yep, I have that. Oh yes, you have to have those." And, I agree with GreekGeek - I still use rubber cement also. For some applications, it can't be replaced.

    This is certainly what you could call a comprehensive guide! Excellent lens.

    Very detailed lens, very nice indeed.
  • SusanVillasLewis Mar 24, 2008 @ 7:15 am | delete
    Greekgeek, I thought about rubber cement. I think I still have some around. It's just not something I'd recommend to a beginning crafter, which is kind of what I had in mind with this. I agree it's great to work with, but not many people do anymore.
  • Greekgeek Mar 24, 2008 @ 12:20 am | delete
    Wow, wonderful lens! SO much here. You make me want to break out my candle molds and wax.

    The only teensy tiny thing I could add is, "Forget the glue gun; where's the rubber cement?" But maybe I'm the only one who uses it for everything from tacking paper to tie-dying Easter Eggs (it makes a spiffy mask, and you can roll it off the shell when the dye dries).

    I'm not into crafts, but I do know a good lens when I see it and this is one! blessings

    Wow, wow, wow! Excellent! I'm gonna nominate you for LOTD :)
  • Susan52 Mar 23, 2008 @ 9:36 pm | delete
    Oh, wow! What a magnificent lens! I can't think of anything you left off but if I do, I'll be back. And I'll be able to find you, too, 'cause this lens is going on my favorites list right now!
