A sneak peak into my craft studio

Here is my daily view that I sit down in my craft studio.   Well almost daily.  More times than not it is not this clean!!   This is definitely the before picture before piles of scrap paper, adhesives, inks, punches, trimmers and stamp sets start accumulating until there is not one inch that is not covered.   Click here to be taken to Moxie Fab World where people all over the crafty world are sharing their crafty workspaces.  

Here is one of my latest scrapbooking organizations that has been a lifesaver.    I finally found a way to corral all my pretty washi tape finds and make them accessible at my finger tips.    The other thing that use to drive me nuts was finding my rhinestones, candy dots and pearls.   They were all gathered in one drawer.   I had to shuffle through the big drawer to find what I was looking forward.   Now I have a small three draw Rubbermaid container and life is so much easier.   Again they are in arms reach, so they are always there when I need them.   Moxie Fab World is dedicating this week to their new edition of Creative Spaces Volume 3 they are showcasing amazing crafty workspaces.    Click here to see a link where the crafty community is sharing their creative storage ideas.

Here is a link to my craft room so you can see what is behind the white doors in the photos below and see how I organize the rest of my crafty goodies.

I am so excited I have a bunch of crafty friends coming over to scrapbook, stamp and enjoy the day this weekend.   I just finished setting up my craft studio for them.     I was surprised by how many workstations I was able to setup.    I can't wait for the crafty madness to start.

Stamping Studio!

Here is my stamping studio. There has been so many additions since the last time I took pictures which was in April of 2008. It's amazing how much stamping and scrapbooking supplies multiply. So without further delay, here is my little haven from the world.

Two tables ready for lots of stampers and scrappers to join me.

Magazines, Stamps, Paper, Accessories, Oh My...

The third shelf just holds my white and vanilla cardstock and it's scraps along with the latest InColors!

Here are all my wonderful friends, my beloved stamp sets. I keep the current ones towards the front and retired sets that I just can't part with in the back.

Now we are onto retired stamp sets and color kits for sale, ribbon, punches and tools and accessories.

Here is a close of my ribbons and tools!

Here are all my wonderful stamp pads hanging on the wall. Can you believe that was my old cassette tape holder! The pads just fit perfectly!

Here is my Big Shot station along with lots of various tools and materials. Along with a rack of all my cards for sale and display.

Hope you enjoyed a view of my stamping studio!
