Project Time!

Happy June!

I bought this magazine a few months ago... I am a virgo and I love organizing, labelling and all that goodness!


While I was a little disappointed it didn't have more of the organizing, labelling and scrappy room pics rather than all the card pics nut I did see a cool, easy soup can project. If you seen my kids desk you would know

We started right away collecting cans...

The tough part was the lazy Susan, I couldn't find one anywhere. Then a friend recommended Value Village and bam... a grey marble lazy susan for $6 !

So we sprayed the cans... covered them with fabric and glued them to the lazy susan.

All done...

And look at how clean his desk is now!

Crafty Sunday!

I wanted to share a little die storage project! I made this little book from chipboard patterned and some sticky sided magnet sheets! I also used the crop a dile, some rings, stickers and rubons to finish it off!

It weighs a ton but certainly comes in handy!

Cards for Sale...

I am needing to off load some of my over 300 greeting cards... I told you I don't give cards to anyone... lol!

So over the last few weeks I have pkg them up and have them for sale for $1 each! I still have to make little dividers and sort them by occasion.

I sold some at my garage sale because I had a few ready and i will be bringing them into work to have at my desk again!

Wish me luck!

Scrap Room Additions!

So you might remember this post where I showed a little peek into My Crafty Cave.

I have been continuously working on it ( it is still not finished tho ) and here are a few more pics...


So we added the bulletin board and I hung my published cards (see my banner from my bff Regs).
Photobucket

On the bottom of the bulletin board is my nesties...

I also added a little candy station, yummy!
Photobucket

I will be back with more as I have added a new window treatment, some artwork and I am still working on the panels, some painting and a new light fixture. as well as a sewing station!

My Scrap Room...

Here are some pics of my scraproom and some of my favorite storage solutions...

This is my ribbon storage... I am quickly out growing it! :) I love ribbon! Under this is my computer and printers but they are ugly... lol!
Photobucket

This is my Cricut and Slice area. My copic, pencil and sewing supplies are on the shelves above.
Photobucket

This is my large selection of embellishments, paints, stickles, mists on top and on the counter is my Hello Kitty Janome, neutral cardstock storage and some drawers with my pins, i-top accessories, embroidery thread, etc.
Photobucket

Close ups...

Photobucket

Then next to those is my flower and bling storage.
Photobucket

I use this to store my copic paper, chart, stamped images from swaps and my teaching stuff.
Photobucket

This is my magazine storage...
Photobucket

And this is my button storage (left) and some old embellishments (right) that I cannot part with.
Photobucket

Under those is some bins for dies, embossing folders, misc stamps and cuttlebug mats.
Photobucket

Then there is my stamp storage, love this method. When I am working on Christmas cards it is easy to pull all the Christmas sets and bring them to my desk. That is also my fabric mat and ruler hanging on the wall. That big black thing is a speaker my husband mounted to my shelf and thought I wouldn't notice.
Photobucket

Now there is a lot of storage under my counters at the back like fabric, alpha letters, etc but it is not to my liking yet so can't show that. However also under there is my paper storage.

I have 2 of these cropper hopper paper carts... I highly recommend! I sort by manufacturer because I need to know who made things on a project.
Photobucket

This is my small paper pad storage... I use the larger envelopes, seal them and the cut open the long side. It keeps the pad nicely and any little pieces after I cut!
Photobucket

In process is my nestabilities storage, I had them in cd cases with magnets but I moved them to rings and they are going on a cork board, that my hubby has not hung yet! :)
Photobucket

Now my desk is my favorite! It is held up by four of these cubes on each side which hold on the important stuff... adhesive, stamp blocks, tools, felt, twine, glitter, ink, punches, rubons, small alpha letters, chipboard.
Photobucket

On top is my clip it up! LOVE! A bin for scraps and my utencil storage!
Photobucket
Photobucket

A lot of the time I have my laptop there as well cause I have folders with all my supplies on it, slice images, cricut images, stamp set images... it makes it easier to find what I am looking for.

I am currently sewing a little shade for the window and I have purchased a chandelier but that was just before the baby came so I haven't got that up yet!

I also have endless TV, Movies and music... oh and a never ending chocolate and candy supply. I love it!

Clip It Up... Cheap!

I love the Clip It Up system, the round version. I think I work better when I can see everything... so the cheap in me created this version... lol! Total price... under $10! The self was already there, but even still they are like $4 anyways. It was just some eye hooks, a wooden dowel, some S hooks ( an entire bag of like 40 was $1 at Walmart), and small bull dog clips (I already had but are fairly cheap). So next time I sit down to do a layout I remember I have all this stuff! LOL
