CRAFT ROOM IS DONE!!!!

OK, SO THE ROOM IS DONE.... FOR THE MOST PART! I ACTUALLY MADE SOME THINGS TODAY AND YESTERDAY.... SO FOR THE ROOM...


THIS IS THE FAR RIGHT CORNER WHEN YOU WALK IN THE DOOR... IT HAS DIE CUTS, TEMPLATES, STAPLERS, EMBOSSING FOLDERS, AND CARD MAKING STUFF.

CONTINUING AROUND THE ROOM, WE NOW HAVE WHITE SHELVES WITH FOAM CLING STAMPS, STAMPING SUPPLIES, SU STAMPS, DIE CUTS, CHIP BOARD, AND CLEAR STAMPS (IN THAT RED BIN ON 9X11 LAMINATED SHEETS ON FRONT AND BACK!!!!).

HERE IN THE CENTER OF THE ROOM IS IRIS CARTS FILLED WITH PUNCHES AND WOODEN STAMPS. ON TOP ARE EMBELLISHMENTS AND GLUES.

MORE IRIS CARTS AND EMBELLISHMENTS...

NOW WHEN IN THE ROOM AND FACING OUT THE DOOR TO THE LEFT IS PAPER. THERE ARE WOODEN SHELVES STACKED ON TOP OF EACH OTHER, A FILE CABINET FULL OF PAPER, AND THAT RACK IN THE CORNER THAT WAS A PUZZLE SHELF ALSO FULL OF PAPER. ON TOP OF THE METAL SHELF IS SOME PRIMAS AND SOME ALPHA RUBBER STAMPS.

HERE IS ONE WORK TABLE THAT HAS TONS OF DRAWERS FULL OF EMBELLISHMENTS, SOME TOOLS, A WHITE RACK FULL OF FIBER (OH, STILL HAVE TONS MORE I HAVENT PUT OUT YET, SO THE ROOM ISNT FULLY DONE YET), INK PADS, AND DRAWER FULL OF EMBELLISHMENTS, TOOLS, AND SO ON. OH, AND MORE PAPER UNDER THE DESK (THERE'S ANOTHER BOX LIKE THAT STILL IN NY... )

HERE IS THE FIBER SHELF, DRAWERS AND INK PAD SHELF IN A BETTER VIEW. THE FIBERS ARE STACKED 3 ROWS DEEP. ON TOP OF THE INK SHELF ARE TONS OF WATER COLOR PENCILS/CRAYONS, MARKERS, ETC.

HERE IS MY MAIN WORK TABLE... SEEN AS IF YOU WERE FACING IT... UNDER IT THERE ARE 2 NIGHT STANDS THAT WERE LEFT IN THE HOUSE, SO I USED THEM TO STORE PUNCHES, TOOLS, EMBELLISHMENTS ETC. THE WHITE 3 DRAWER CART HAS TOOLS & MATS ON TOP, AND THE DRAWERS ARE FULL OF FLOWERS, EMBELLISHMENTS AND CRIMPERS.

IF YOU WERE AT THE OTHER WORK TABLE AND TURNED AROUND, THERE IS A DESK AND PAPER RACK BEHIND IT... YUP, MORE PAPER! AHHHHH!

THIS IS A SHOT AS IF YOU WERE WALKING TO MY MAIN WORK TABLE. YEAH, I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF REBOOTING MY COMPUTER AND WORKING ON A SWAP, SO ITS MESSY... BUT HEY, I WAS WORKING :) UP AGAINST THE SIDE OF THE TABLE IS A CART WHERE MY DIE CUT MACHINES ARE... ALL EXCEPT FOR THE PAZZLE... MY EXPRESSION HAS TO BE MOVED TO THE SHELF WHERE THE PAZZLE IS, BUT FOR NOW ITS HERE... THE BABY BUG CAN STAY ON THIS TABLE WITH ITS OTHER LITTLE FRIENDS! ALSO, NEXT TO MY DESK IS A SHELF WITH MORE COMMONLY USED PUNCHES SO THEY ARE IN ARMS REACH.

HERE IS THE ELECTRONIC SHELF... MY REGULAR PRINTER, 12X12 PRINTER, PAZZLE, LAMINATORS, PAPER SHREDDER, JUKEBOX, AND DESIGN STUDIO (EXPRESSION WILL GO ON BOTTOM SHELF). THE STORAGE TO THE LEFT OF IT HAS CHALKS, COLORED PENCILS, GLIMMER MISTS, ETC. THIS IS NEXT TO THE CLOSET.

THE COMPUTER DESK AND THE CORNER SHELF IS FULL OF EMBELLISHMENTS AND ANOTHER DESK WITH TOOLS, MACHINES, MORE STAMPING STUFF, ETC ON IT.

THE BACK OF THE CLOSET DOOR... CHIPBOARD ALBUMS & COASTERS

LOOKING INTO THE CLOSET.... (THE BACK OF THE DOOR IS FULL OF CHIPBOARD) TONS OF GOODIES IN THERE... STICKERS, PAINTS, SEWING STUFF, CLAY STUFF, JEWELRY MAKING STUFF, MATERIAL, LEATHER, RIBBONS, FIBERS, ALBUMS, ADHESIVES, GEMS, FOAM STAMPS, DUPLICATE STUFF THATS IN ROOM AND NEED TO STORE, AND SO ON...

WELL, THATS ALL FOLKS... HOPE YOU ENJOYED! IT TOOK ME FOREVER, BUT I GOT IT DONE!!! WOO HOOOOOO!

HAVE THE CRAFTIEST DAY!

Okay... HERE'S MY ROOM

I WISH I HAD A ROOM LIKE SOME OF YOU LADIES, WITH ALL THE MATCHING FURNITURE AND BIG WORK SPACE DESKS AND ALL THOSE PRETTY BASKETS AND THINGS TO STORE YOUR ITEMS IN... BUT I HAVE SPENT MY MONEY ON SUPPLIES AND MY HUSBAND WOULD NEVER ALLOW ME TO DO THAT.. HE HATES MY CRAFTING... BUT... I HAVE LEARNED TO BE CREATIVE & FRUGAL IN MY STORAGE AND DESIGN (LOL, IF THATS WHAT YOU CALL IT) IN MY SCRAPROOM. SO HERE IT IS:

CLICK ON PICTURES TO MAKE THEM LARGER FOR BETTER VIEWING....


THIS PICTURE IS A CONTINUATION OF MY LAST BLOG ON MY RIBBON STORAGE. THESE ARE/WERE UNDERBED STORAGE RACKS I HAD GOTTEN FROM COLLECTIONS ETC. CATALOGUE. THE RIBBON IS ON THE FRAMES AND THE BASES I TOOK OFF AND AM USING THEM AS A PEG BOARD TYPE SYSTEM. I HAVENT FINISHED YET, BUT WILL SOON. I HAVE HUNDREDS OF THESE BAGS OF CHIPBOARD, SO I AM GOING TO USE THESE RACKS TO DISPLAY SOME OF THEM. I AM USING PAPER CLIPS TO HANG THEM, AND I HAVE MANY ON EACH PAPER CLIP... ALL THE SAME GOES ON ONE CLIP, WHAT I CANT FIT, WILL GO BACK IN STORAGE.




HERE'S SHOT OF FIVE RACKS... HAVENT FOUND SPACE FOR REST YET.

OKAY, I GOT INSPIRED TO DO MORE ON THE WALL... OR SHOULD I SAY, ALL I AM GOING TO DO FOR NOW! LOL. THE PICTURES ARE BELOW.

VIEW WHEN WALKING DOWN INTO ROOM... YES I AM IN THE DUNGEON!


THIS IS A DESK THAT STORES MY JEWELRY MAKING ITEMS, QUILLING ITEMS, TUILLE PAINTING BOOKS, AND METAL SUPPLIES.


THIS ROLLING CART STORES MY PLASTIC TEMPLATES & STENCILS. IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT, BUT IT HAS HUNDREDS OF TEMPLATES IN THERE! I AM A TEMPLATE JUNKIE!


THIS AREA IS BETWEEN THE STENCIL CART & JEWELRY DESK. IT HAS MY PRINTER, LAMINATERS, COPY PAPER, CHALKS, RUBBING PLATES, GLITTERS, PEARL X, SAND, PERFECT PEARLS, MICRO BEADS, WALNUT INKS, CRIMPERS, LIGHT BOX, AND MORE...


THIS SHELF I GOT WHEN A LOCAL VIDEO STORE WENT OUT OF BUSINESS... THEY WERE FRIENDS OF MINE AND LET ME TAKE IT... I WOULD HAVE TAKEN ALL OF THEM, BUT LIKE I SAID EARLIER... MY HUSBAND IS NOT SUPPORTIVE AT ALL, SO HE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ONE. ESPECIALLY THAT HE HAD TO CARRY IT AND PICK IT UP.. LOL. ANYWAYS... IT IS TWO SIDED (AS YOU WILL SEE IN THE NEXT PICTURE) AND I USE ONE SIDE TO STORE MY DIE CUTS (BUT AM OUTGROWING IT) AND ON THE SIDE IS AN OLD VCR TAPE RACK, THAT I STORE SOME OF MY LARGER PUNCHES ON... SOME ARE 2 ROWS DEEP.




HERE IS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SHELF... THIS HOLDS MORE OF MY PUNCHES. I HAVE MORE IN ON MY DESK IN A DRAWER AS WELL. THE TOP HAS MY CRICUT CARTRIDGES & XRYON BOOKS... BUT AGAIN, OUTGROWING THAT.


THIS IS THE WALL ABOVE MY DIE CUTTING STATION. IT HAS MY CRICUT MATS, AND LOTS OF HIEDI SWAPP MASKS... THEY ARE LAYERED ON TOP OF EACH OTHER.... I HAVE THEM ALL. ALSO MY XRYON DESIGN RUNNER HELPING TOOL IS THERE.



THIS I GOT FROM MY LOCAL FREE CYCLE... IT HOLDS MY DIE CUTTING MACHINES.


THIS IS THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROOM AFTER THE DIE CUTTING STATION- WELL PART OF IT... THE TALL WHITE DRAWER SYSTEM IS FULL OF FOAM SHAPES (WHICH I DONT USE), THE 2 OTHER CARTS HAVE PAINTS, ON TOP OF THEM IS TAC STAMPS, AND THE WHITE BOOK SHELF IS FULL OF BOXES OF WOOD MOUNTED STAMPS, FOAM STAMPS, CAT EYE AND SMALL INK PADS, AND A TOASTER OVEN (FOR MY POLYMER CLAY THAT IS ALL PACKED AWAY).


THIS IS THE FAR RIGHT CORNER OF THE ROOM, AFTER THE SHELF WITH THE WOOD STAMPS. THIS IS A DESK THAT I MOUNTED A GARAGE SALE FIND SHELF, AND AGAIN, FULL OF TAC STAMPS. ABOVE IS ANOTHER SHELF THAT I STORE MY BIGGER INK PADS, AND ON THE COUNTER IS MORE TAC STAMPS, 2 BASKETS OF EMBOSSING POWDERS, AND DRAWERS OF SOME ALPHA STAMPS. UNDERNEATH IS BOOKS, MAGAZINES, SOME SOUVIENERS TO SCRAP, SOME TOOLS, YARNS, AND MORE.




HERE IS A STRAIGHT ON SHOT OF ABOVE AREA... IT ALSO HAS MY SU WHEELS ON TOP... BUT I ORDERED A TON MORE, SO HAVE TO FIND ANOTHER PLACE FOR THESE.






THIS IS A FULL SHOT OF THE CABINET/COUNTER AREA. THESE CABINETS WERE MY HUSBANDS COUSINS THAT HE WAS GETTING RID OF... SO OF COURSE, I GRABBED THEM.. LOL. MOST OF THEM ARE EMPTY CAUSE I HAVE PACKED THEM UP... I PLAN ON MOVING SOON... HOPEFULLY. SO I PACKED UP HALF MY ROOM LAST YEAR. THE COUNTER HAS A PAPER CUTTER, MAT, GADGETS, STAMPS, ETC. I DONT USE THAT AREA.





NOW ON TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROOM... THIS IS NEXT TO THE CABINET/COUNTER AREA IN THE FAR LEFT CORNER. IT HAS SOME RIBBONS ON THE TOP SHELF... A LITTLE OF MY FIBERS ON THE 2ND SHELF, STORED IN BINS I GOT FROM THE DOLLAR STORE (I PACKED AWAY 90% OF MY FIBER, AS I DONT NEED IT ALL OUT NOW)... THE 3RD & 4TH SHELVES HOLD STORE BOUGHT PAGE KITS BY THEME AND ALSO ON THE BOTTOM SHELF IS A BIN OF RIBBON SCRAPS BY COLOR. THE BLUE & SILVER DRAWERS HOLD RIBBON, FIBERS, MESH, ADHESIVES, AND MISC ITEMS. ALSO ON TOP OF THE BLUE CART IS MORE RIBBONS AND FUN FUR.


THIS IS ALL MY STICKERS SORTED IN PRIORITY ENVIES BY THEME. YUP, MILLIONS OF THEM! LOL.


NEXT TO THE STICKERS ARE THESE RACKS OF EMBELLISHEMENTS, SWAP ITEMS, BINDING MACHINES, SOME SEWING ITEMS (REST PACKED, I DONT SEW), AND OTHER THINGS.


AND THE EMBELLISHEMENTS CONTINUE... THEY ARE ORGANIZED BY THEME AS WELL. THERE IS ALSO A PAPER RACK, AND SHELVES OF PAPER TOO.



PAPERS, CHIPBOARD, SOME ALBUMS, CARD MAKING STUFF, AND BINDERS OF CLEAR STAMPS.


HOW I STORE MY PAPER SCRAPS.



SHOT OF MY WORK SPACE AND ALSO PART OF ROOM.

HERE IS A SHOT OF WHAT I COULD GET OF ONE END OF MY ROOM.


HERE IS MY WORK SPACE. IT HAS MY FAVORITE CUTTER, MY COPICS, MY DREAMKUTS, MY LAPTOP AND A BUNCH OF TOOLS AND STUFF.


UNDER THE CORNER OF MY WORK DESK HAS THIS CART THAT HOLDS MY CARDED RIBBONS AND MORE ADHESIVES.


USED TO BE MY SONS LEGO TABLE... NOW IT HOLDS SOME TOOLS. ITS UNDER MY WORK DESK TO MY LEFT.

THE LEFT SIDE OF MY WORK DESK HAS 2 OF THESE BROWN SHELVES. THIS PICTURE IS BEFORE I FINISHED LABELING MY PENCILS/MARKERS... BUT THE DRAWERS HAVE PUNCHES AND MORE TOOLS.



HERE IS THE OTHER SHELF THING ON MY DESK. IT HAS INK PADS, TOOLS, MORE PENS, MARKERS, ETC... ACRYLIC BLOCKS, MORE ADHESIVES, MY STAPLERS, AND NOT PICTURED ARE MY PRISMA PENCILS AND WATERCOLORS.


HERE IS SOME OF MY MARKERS/PENCILS AFTER LABELED.

THIS IS A FILE CABINET NEXT TO MY CARDSTOCK SHELF... AND ALSO MY TV. THESE FILE CABINETS ARE LOADED WITH STUFF... TO BE PICTURED BELOW.


THESE DRAWERS ARE VERY DEEP AND GO FAR BACKKKKK... AND ARE PACKED 3-6 DEEP WITH STUFF! SOME OF THE CHIPBOARD IN THESE DRAWERS WILL GO ON MY FAUX PEG BOARD WALL... AKA.. WIRE RACKS.










WELL, THATS MOST OF IT... EXCEPT WHATS IN STORAGE... OH BOY.. DOES THAT NEED TO BE ORGANIZED!!! I GUESS I CAN SHOW YOU WHAT THAT AREA LOOKS LIKE TOO! AFTER SEEING MY ROOM, AND SEEING HOW ORGANIZED IT IS (WELL, TO A DEGREE), DONT FALL OVER WHEN YOU SEE MY 2 STORAGE ROOMS! ONE IS A SAUNA AND THE OTHER IS THE DRESSING ROOM BEFORE IT. THE SAUNA IS ABOUT 8x8 AND IS PACKED FLOOR TO CEILING! AND THE OTHER ROOM IS ALMOST AS BAD!






HOPE YOU ENJOYED!
