MY CRAFT ROOM MAKEOVER

Hello Everyone

There's been a lot happening here over the last few months with unwell parents needing assistance, a 21st birthday party and Convention, a retreat and weekends away so consequently I haven't had much time to create. However even though I haven't been creating I have been updating my craft room. I needed more storage so I sold the futon that wasn't used all that much and here is how my craft space looks now.

The first photo shows how my work desk looks and this is the same space that I created back in 2010, so no changes here.The only new addition is the little ottoman beside the desk as I needed something to put my Paris cushion on :)

This wall is where the futon used to sit and it is now a work station for my Big Shot and Cricut. The wall was a hot pink colour it is now painted a lovely, soft gelato pink, so much prettier. The cupboards are Ikea Fakum kitchen cupboards with an Ikea Vika Amon tabletop and the bookcases are from the Ikea Billy range. They hold so many stamp sets and magazines and there are plenty of unsightly looking items in the cupboards :) The work station is higher than my desk, making it much easier to use my die cutting machines and a lot easier on my back.

This is my Ikea Expedite and it was also put together back in 2010 so not much difference here either apart from the fact that all my card is now sitting in one spot (way too much card sitting on these shelves) as are my punches, chipboard, ribbons and 12x12 papers plus a few other bits ... these are hidden as well.

Okay so my room looks fabulous and I love it; it's wonderful to have everything in one spot and I hope that I can remember where I have put it all .... now I just need my mojo back so that I can create again.
