When You Curtail the Crafty Chaos, Your Creativity Can Flow

If you’re even just a little bit crafty you know that certain stores are your kryptonite. You stop in for just one thing and then walk out an hour later with a bag full of stuff. (Please tell me I’m not the only one this happens to.) Any craft store is a potential gold mine, stickers, decorative paper, paint, baskets, pens, beads, yarn, you name it - they’ve got it. Throw in a decent coupon and suddenly everything looks good to me. The problem is that my craft room is significantly smaller than the store. Once I get home with all my treasures I’m at a loss for where to store them. Anything that gets tucked away in a drawer or a bin can easily be forgotten. Uh oh! You see where this is going, right? The next time I’m at the store I may buy something that I already have at home. If we’re talking about clay or paint or anything else that can harden over time I may not find it again until it has been difficult, if not impossible to use. 

Thanks to Stockpile even the most casual of crafters can take heart. If you input your craft supply inventory into our free easy online inventory solution you’ll never again lose your materials. You’ll always know what you have and where you’re storing it. Then when creativity strikes you won’t have to waste time digging through your supplies to find what you need or figure out that you need to make a run to store. A quick check of Stockpile will tell you what you have on hand and what you don’t. 

Out at the store and see a good deal? Check Stockpile on your mobile device and you’ll instantly know whether you should pick some up or pass it by because you already have something similar at home. Can’t remember what color, size or shape of something you have at home? If you’ve created a record in Stockpile you can easily look it up to make sure that you’re purchasing the right thing.

Our free easy online inventory solution is designed to be customizable so that you can make it fit your needs. You have the ability to create areas or locations to track your supplies. If you’d like to really keep tabs on your stuff you can transfer items from one location to another as they’re being used. Did you let one of your kids use some of your supplies? Transfer those items to their room while they’re being used and then transfer them back after their project is completed. Now they won’t get away with saying, “I’m pretty sure I gave those back.” If you update your records as you finish off supplies you’ll be able to tell what you need to restock as well. How often have you pulled out your supplies only to realize that you used the last of the glue or that particular color of paint on your last project? Frustrating isn’t it? When you’re ready to be creative the last thing you want to do is take the time to run to the store. All too often you end up improvising or putting off the project until another time.
