Some other things




I've been trying to organize my craft space and thought I would show you what I have done.
It's a small table, but trust me, I can cover it with lots of junk without much effort! :) I put a 3-drawer caddy on the table which holds some of the most used supplies (dry adhesives, glitter/embossing powders & ribbon. On top of that is a small container which is like a "crash kit" - I keep all of the "must haves" in there (black stamp pad, VersaMark pad, ruler, pencil, black fine tip pen, SNAIL adhesive runner, etc). It also keeps these things out of sight from the kids so they down't get into anything they shouldn't while allowing me to keep them accessible. I also keep my Stampin Up markers and paper cutter on the table (thought his will often be put higher since my son loves to cut paper with it, and he will cut any paper he can get hold of - including projects!) My Stampin Up idea book & catalogue is also on the table so I can get ideas and work on the ever-growing Wish List!
Other things still need organizing, like the scrapbooking paper on the right corner (mostly 12x12). There are also some pictures in the pile that I am trying to scrap, but I am having a bit of a scrapbooking block right now. I also have a small stack of stamps that were used in recent projects and just need to go into the cabinet with the others.


As you can see, I have one other accessory that is regularly on my table - one or both cats! Jewel (pictured here) is much more demanding of my attention when she jumps up...she sprawls all over the table and covers whatever I am working on, sometimes knocking items off that get in the way of the full cat stretch. Sigh. :)
