While many might turn to Martha Stewart for tips on flower arranging or laying a table, I often gaze at her rather impressive property portfolio when I need some inspiration for my home. From her luxe New York apartment to her Turkey Hill estate in Connecticut, any home created by Martha seems to be filled with the utmost creativity.

While practically every room in Martha Stewart's homes is inspiring, her rather charming craft room in her Bedford home is filled with replicable ideas that will make organizing your home feel like a breeze.

Martha's craft room is filled with clever organization solutions. From the apothecary jars to the metal filing cabinet, it's a lesson in small space storage. You'll be pleased to know that Martha's created her own line of storage, such as the Thomas Martha Stewart 6 Piece Wooden Desk Drawer Organiser Set, which is perfect for decluttering a workstation.

Organizing a craft room may seem simple, but Martha's room proves that sometimes a diverse selection of storage solutions is best for this space. From the simple yet effective filing cabinet to the rather chic rattan shelves, Martha incorporates a mix of storage vessels that each work as hard alongside one another.

While shelves can be a little unsightly when poorly organized, Martha puts an end to open shelving mistakes with her chic rattan choice. Decked out with jars, boxes, and trays, the shelves become a rather pleasing arrangement that couldn't be more convenient for a crafter to access when they're hard at work.

Let's not forget the rather nifty ribbon display that's neatly fitted underneath the unit. Using a simple pole, Martha has created an easily accessible setup that can be used whenever ribbon is required.

The work station itself is (of course) scattered with stylish and convenient storage. From the pots that hold Martha's pens and pencils to the handy roll of paper that couldn't be easier to use, the desk display proves the enduring power of all the familiar essentials.

Even the filing cabinet is clever. Slotted underneath the desk, it doesn't take up any precious space and is situated in the perfect spot for accessing paper and other making supplies.

Whether your sewing room needs some decluttering or you're looking to organize your home office, Martha's crafting room is filled with replicable ideas that are so easy to try at home.
