my scrap room pics…

 edited to answer a lot of email questions and to add ikea countertop links:)

it’s been a week since we started redoing my room.  its far from organized but I wanted to show what it looks like now.  if you’d like to see what it use to look like, go here.

for whats on tap tuesday, here’s my desk.  yep, my desk represents just how much cardmaking got done this week…not much.

the room is full of white cubes from michaels and topped with ikea desktops.  the wall cabinets--menards are great for alterables, books, even my cricut and gypsy are in there.  my viking embroidery machine in below on the right.

this is my way of photographing my cards.  there are lights attached to the bottom of the cabinets, which helps brighten the cards.

I have a large window that floods the room with light most days.  my mac is here, my laptop and ipad float all over.

on this end, there is my tv and silhouette.   the pink and green cubes below the tv holds all of my clear stamp sets, 6 of them all pti…

****someone asked the size of the countertops---ikea has several different lengths of straight pieces--i have one 69" long and one 79" long piece, i also have 3 smaller sizes-(in my garage),- just in case i want to change the arrangement.  the corners are monster big.  the edges that butt up to the long pieces are 24" deep, from the corner out 43", and the long sides are 46".  corners will hold a lot of equipment. 

I attach each stamp sheet to a piece of  4” x 6” cardstock.  this system works well for me.  the pink and green cubes came from michaels--  i bought these on clearance, and i don't think my michaels has them anymore.

this storage unit came from ikea and holds my brads, dies, chipboard, –tons of embellishments, 7 gypsies drawers and all of my cards magazines.

  thanks for looking!
