Are you kicking off the new year with some cleaning and organizing? You can make this great mason jar craft supply organizer in just a few minutes and 3 easy steps. With this fun and simple DIY craft caddy, you can store any type of supplies and change it up regularly with reusable chalkboard labels. My craft space is already looking better!
Supplies needed to make your own mason jar craft caddy:
- Quart Sized Mason Jars (3 per organizer)
- 12 inch Wood Planter Box
- FrogTape Painter’s Tape
- Chalkboard Sticker Labels
- Chalk Pens
- Acrylic Craft Paint (I used Sun Yellow and Fun Fuchsia)
- Paint Brush
Step 1: Paint your wood planter box. To add more interest to my craft caddy, I painted the box two different colors – bright fuschia and yellow.
For a nice crisp line, use FrogTape to tape off both sides of the box with handles, as shown below. Paint the long sides of the box and let dry. Re-position the painter’s tape and paint the short handled sides of the box with your other paint color.
Step 2: Once your paint has completely dried and cured, add chalkboard labels to the front of your craft caddy organizer.
Step 3: Place the mason jars inside of your craft caddy and add the craft supplies of your choice.
As you can see, my pipe cleaners, pom poms and feathers fit just perfectly in my mason jar craft caddy!
Your craft area will look pretty and organized with a few of these fun mason jar craft supply caddies.
What would you store in your brand new DIY craft supply caddy?

Your little caddie is so cute, love colors and how the pretty stuff in jars looks. Will be a great addition to any room. I’ll have to scrounge up some more jars.
I seem to be in a super organizing mode so will pin this for future reference. Need all the ideas I can come up with to get my messes cleaned up. I’m currently working on my craft room, going thru my iris carts to combine some things. Got most of my rubber stamps out of carts in a box to sell. Have rarely used them for long time so decided to purge them. Have many things like that. I need to make room for a stand/bookcase in my craft room to store all my paints. Right now they’re all over room in any box I could find as I needed one. But when I need a particular paint can’t find it, eeeekkkkk. My craft room is quite small so have to do some major rearranging to get stand in the room.
All your organizational tips now are sure coming in handy, inspires me to keep going and I need all the coaxing I can get. Rather lie on couch to watch tv, lol. Well it’s waiting, bet go do something for little while til time for bed.
That is really cute and easy. You could even do this for your bathroom to hold make-up brushes, Q-tips cotton balls etc. just glam it up or stain the box or paint to match the vanity. Guess I will be making a trip to town to get what I need. Thank you for another great craft project.
What a great project, Angie! Another great way to get organized in 2014!
