IT"S ABOUT TIME...

So this is where I've been spending most of my "spare" time. It's finally (almost) done. Only the floor is left and even I can install that on my own. I just need a few more days in the week. Anyways, here it is....

This is where my embellishments are stored in hanging spice jars. Gotta love Ikea! Also in this area is my Bind it All, Cuttlebug, embossing station, and sewing machine. I use the sewing machine as the backgroung for my picture taking.

Next on our tour is where my stamps live. This was an old shelf DH's dad had when he owned a video store. DH would like me to note that it was his idea to mount the pink shelf on top to hold heavier books and the lighting. Spools of ribbon are lined up on the shelves and pieces are hung on hangers in color families.

This is my desk. It's a beautiful old table that I inherited from my Poppa. I've covered it so it doesn't get damaged. All my inks and tools are near so I know what I've got to work with.

This is my paper storage tower. I love it. I finally found a system that works for me. These units have 3 drawers. I labelled them by SU! Color family. For example: Rich Regals Cardstock, Rich Regals Designer Series Paper, Rich Regals Scraps. There is one for each family, In Colors, dark neutrals, light neutrals, simply scrappin' kits, chipboard and discontinued papers.

And here we have my storage boxes and project bins. Below are 3 stacks of drawers full of kids craft stuff. I do lots of kid's classes but they don't usually get to use "my" stuff. The last wall holds more Ikea rails and buckets. I'll show you those in another post because my pictures of them were so bad, I have to try and take better ones.

So that's what I've been busy doing instead of all those challenges I said I wanted to keep up on. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think of "my room". Now that the space is done, I'm going to go create!
