Crafting Chaos or Crafting Control: Which Are You?

Are you the kind of person who meticulously organizes project materials, or are you more of a spontaneous crafter who relies on memory to estimate supplies, diving right in without checking if you have enough?

I have a basic spread sheet that I keep saying I am going to get a better count on some blanks …. But when it comes to how much and what colors htv and vinyl I have well I have the colors I use the most on hand others it’s hope I have them when a idea comes in… but let’s be honest I have at least a sheet of each color from bundles so it’s organized chaos I am not sure others would understand 90% of the time.

I’ve got a little bit of OCD so clutter and chaos stress me out a bit. I have to lay things out and decide what I’m going to use and put things away as I go. I clean up my space before and after.

I’m a little column A and column B lol :rofl: I do plan a lot of my projects and even put associated blanks and materials in a project bin for it. But often when I’m crafting, I think oh this would work so well for this project and then the planning goes out the window. :rofl: But the intention is there hahaha

I definitely have those moments too! A few months ago I pulled out multiple packages of HTV, I didn’t realize I had accidentally mixed some puff htv in with regular htv until I went to make a customer a T-Shirt and was surprised after I pressed it. :joy: Thankfully it worked out ok and he loved how it came out, but that’s why I need to contain my crazy!

I’d say I’m 60/40! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

60% meticulous planner, 40% spontaneous crafter who still ends up missing something halfway through! :rofl: I love organizing my materials, but once the creative spark hits, all that planning goes out the window and it’s craft-chaos time! :sweat_smile:
