| curtain holders holds up the punches above my cabinet of stamps. |

| this is my sheet from Tim Holtz for heat embossing, his alcohol inks, etc...- love it!! |
 | |
| Here is the Imagine cartridges -you can hold A LOT!! 24 of them - I had 2 of them out.. I don't have the print out done yet on this container. |
 |
| embellishments are mostly stored here... the pink container all stickles & smooches the white butterfly container is chalks and markers the pink and blue lil bins is fibers, ribbons in packages, etc.. Ctmh ribbons, brads etc in on the bottom shelf as well as the embossing etc.. flowers, glues, etc all sit here too. small containers of brads, buttons, etc are all kept together (sits next to the container with pink lid) |
 |
| keep my cricut stuff here with mats all hanging on. |
 |
| this shelf holds all my magazines, and all cricut access. gypsy incl. The lg container holds all my cricut cords (below), Imagine ink, pens for cricut that have never been used!! rewards, etc.. I keep all my chipboard for cutting on the shelf below. the lil container with white lid is for my cricut cake access. See my gypsy sleeve.. That container and another hold all those cricut cuts that never made it or I had the cut and wrote the size on there - left overs, misc projects worked on go here!! |
 |
| cuttlebug blue binder and this green container hold all my embossing folders and yet.. I need/want more folders LOL so this shelf is my embossing shelf! |
 |
| this shelf besides the embossing holds cards of different sizes, shapes, and colors they are premade card bases. Also containers near the top holds embellishments galore. and blank albums on the bottom shelf The coffee cup is still awaiting a name to be put on there... See my Cricut Mini... on the shelf alone... |
 |
| PAPER! PAPER! PAPER!! I love paper! Can you tell!! patterned - solid - vellum - 12x12 -81/2 x11 - and it's here. What order is it in.. only I can know LOl I have it sectioned out by themes only.. it's a mess BUT still a work in progress. the stand up with all the colors is my ctmh paper by color 2 colors to a stand. The black binders on bottom shelf is CM binders full of every sticker & rub on I have been collecting for years. I stopped buying so much when I got my cricut BUT I cannot get rid of it and challenge myself to use it now. See the top row - I keep misc stuff there -wooden stamps, misc crafts for kids. The first shelf -the bottom 3 shelves hold all my Christmas more info a couple of pics below |
 |
| a closer look at my paper - I love PAPER!!! |
 |
| wooden stamps. I use to fill up 2 shelves (from top to bottom not the single shelf) full BUT then I discovered Acrylic and I downsized! |
 |
| Christmas galore! the white boxes all hold PAPER!! as well as the stand up! Container with red/green, etc polka dots - this is ALL my Christmas Ribbon. container on very bottom holds all kinds of embellishments and misc Christmas / winter / items |
 |
| acrylic stamps and acrylic blocks cabinet. The black binder holds misc acrylic stamps from many companies. Blue container holds currently the on-line companies (ex: k andrews, mps, mct, PBD, etc.. I don't have many yet BUT I am working on it!) The black cases AND the big clear one with stamps standing up is ALL CTMH sectioned by words, months, misc, fonts, etc..

 |
| whew. a mess but this rack holds all the misc stuff I use to decorate with or shall I say.. ON... all kinds of stuff goes on here.. |
 |
| THIS is all my scrap patterned paper! 3 containers full! I have small baggies if there were quite a a bit of the same cut and pattern, |
 |
| this my friends is a mess to you.. but I actually have it organized. a 12x12 bag holds a color family or a few depending on the color. (you can see the blue bag on top) they actually sit up in this container. I have tons of sheets I need to cut apart to put into their homes... That's what you see as the mess... the sheets can be 1/2 or even smaller - if I can punch through it or cut it up - it stays! |
 |
| 60 + ink pads fit here in this photo case.. the other side of photo case is flat for water brushes, small embellishments, I even had at one time the spritzer for cleaning and pad to wipe. |
 |
| misc container of paintbrushes, sponges, spritzers, brayers, etc.. |
 |
| see the other holders.. ready for more paperwork.. My walls cannot hold shelves as this is a "fake" wall up against the cement wall. Sooner or later I want to paint them.. |
 |
| I must have some organization since I became involved with a Design team and I have a few guest Spots and MANY blog hops i am happily enjoying. I type it up and hang it here on this wall. This one is my monthly calendar with my Design team that I printed and then I keep all my info pertaining to those days I create for.. and even when I send the previews off, etc.... |
 |
| A basket of paint chips and color combo's.. A needed for any craft room! |
 | ||
| One must have some music, a few pictures and my trusty crop-a-dile's along with a few shaped rulers |
 | |
| MY ribbon wall that is NOT in containers... SEE the black 3 binders - these hold LO's NOT even completed yet.. got the paper, the pictures and perhaps a saying and drawing to be done.. |
 |
| junp rings on picture holders |
 |
| dowels held up by curtain holders |

Doris,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I am so impressed! Do you actually use all of that stuff? My problem is my addiction to buying 'stuff' and not getting around to actually using them. Find a sticker,, buy if for that one perfect pic that I know that I have,,,, somewhere. Then there is my lack of creative imagination. I 'crop lift' a lot of ideas. I am years behind in my albums. When I started I had a group of co-workers who would get together often for crops. Time passes and people move on and scrapping alone just isn't as much fun. My scrap area is in a section of my dining/living room and consists of a desk which holds my Cricut, 4 jukeboxes and the Your Story with all of my cartridges stacked on the top of the open lid and ribbon on the little dowells for supplies. I do my scrapping/card making on a large dining table that only gets used for family/holiday gatherings. I have the Design Studio... can't figure out how to use it well. I got a Gypsy right before Christmas and keep playing with it but that, too is frustrating me. Provocraft puts out all of these gadgets with very little instruction. I am going to have to break down and buy the Gypsy A-Z from Above Rubies and pray that is helpful. (All of the videos that I watch make it SEEM so easy to use!) ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love you your Cricut cheat sheets and am anxiously awaiting the listing of more of the cartridges that I own. Thanks so much for sharing them with us.
Thanks for sharing your room and I look forward to many ideas from you.

I need to update my Cricut notebook too. I love all the ribbon you have. It's the obsession that I don't use enough of. I keep collecting ribbon but don't use it as fast as I buy it. Thanks Dana
ReplyDeletehttp://papermemories4u.blogspot.com/
I love your wall 'storage' for your cricut mats! Great space saving idea!
ReplyDeleteNew follower. My favorite tip? Put things away when you're done with them. No sense in needing to clean before you start the next time!
wow - that was fabulous! i love reading how every organizes and as long as you know where everything is - that's what counts! i was drooling over your paper rack! lol - i just had to tone mine down a little...to make room for more lol - thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteDoris, I am uber impressed with your room! Lots of fun ways to store your STUFF and I can see you are having fun since you know where to look for whatever you need!! LOVE the cheat sheet and hope you can send me a copy or let me know where to find it. I also like hanging the mats on the wall!Enjoy your crafting...I think you might be short a yard of ribbon...LOL!
ReplyDeleteMy fav tip is the one I use putting ALL my "I must use these" embellishments " hanging in clear page protectors on a rod. What a difference it has made!
New follower and glad to be in the hop with you, sharing and inspiring others.

It is nice to see someone with more paper than me. :)
ReplyDeleteI do not have a craft room or even area for that matter so I can't keep my stuff all neat like you. I do keep my ribbons in clear plastic shoe boxes from The Container Store so I can see them. They are organized by color and I also have special Christmas and Fall ribbon boxes. Thinking of doing the same for my flowers because they are all hanging on my Clip it up now and I need to make space for other embellishments.
What a wonderful creative space, so many nooks and creative places and storage. Thanks for sharing. pammejo1@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI love your space! I bet you create a lot of GREAT stuff in there! You have inspired me to hang my ribbon. I have quite a bit but I think I hang some to add color to my space.. LOVE IT! I would be interested in the cheat sheets for the Cricut. I have a CE and a CE2.. LOVE THEM! TFS! I am a follower and would be honored if you would check out my blog and do the same at ACreativeJourneywithMelissa. blogspot dot com. Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteWoozers...you have everything set up for ease of use. I enjoyed your tour.
ReplyDeleteI love your space! you have great organizational ideas...especially with the ribbons I wish I could do that but since I am in a loft style apt with cats and a dog well you get the picture it wouldn't work out to leave them where they can be played with ...it is for me not them...hehe...thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteKari
Thanks for all the great ideas.
ReplyDeletemarg0006@verizon.net
am so jealous of your ribbon wall, love that
ReplyDeleteGreat room, I noticed your TH distress inks aren't labeled. Ranger has a printout full of the labels for them just in case you weren't aware. I need to make a Cricut binder now that I've finally passed 30, LOL I know soo behind everyone else.
ReplyDeletewww.glitternglow.blogspot.com
Man, what a great room... or basement . The ribbon wall just made me so envy your room... Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteGreat space, looks like you have a good sized room. I just bought a gypsy from a friend and would love to have some of your cricut cheat sheets as I think it might be easier to see whats on the cartridges. I would appreciate if you could send me a link, Hugz, Kim (kim.scrapper@yahoo.ca)
ReplyDeleteGreat space! I would love more info on the cricut binder and your DT calendar. Thank you for following me and i look forward to following you. BTW there are never to many pictures of Scrap studio,lol

ReplyDeleteDoris, I love all your space that you have in your room. Love the ribbon wall. So easy to see what you have when needing a certain ribbon. I also like your hook for your heat gun. Mine is on the floor. I see that your Tim Holtz craft sheet is rolled up! I have 4 of them out on my table all the time. I use them (and so do my friends) for everything. No need to put down a sheet of paper to stamp on. I love those. Of course I had to wait for 50% off coupons to get each one. They are quite spendy. tfs big bloggy hugs Tami

Thank you so much for sharing your craft world with us! The binder that you have made up is fab! I was hoping to get a little more information on it too if you don't mind.

I have an addition to both too hehe! Tfs!
