In the hope that I actually get this room - my craft space - off the ground and organised, I'm putting these details and inspirational pics on my blog, hopefully to serve as some motivation to get me off and running!
This is how my craft 'room' currently looks (not really, this is a pic off the web) ... all my stuff is in boxes. My daily toos and stash is in a wheelie tote and carry boxes, all stored in clear containers.
I have several mega boxes stacked in my 'craft room', and a built-in wardrobe stacked with boxes - all labelled - that desparately need organising! So....
I show here the plan of my room... (hmm... why doesn't the outer graphic frame show? The room does have walls! LOL) As you see it on the left, is how it is at the moment, except for the table (haven't been able to buy it yet, and currently in its place is my stack of boxes!). Never craft at my corner computer desk (as large as it is!) again! My computer sits between my printer and guillotine cutter, but I forgot to write it in to the plan.
In the hope to motivate myself, here are some web pics I mashed together to visualise some plans...
Above the cube storage (which is only 4 feet tall) I plan to have dowel rods with reels for a wall of ribbon storage, and a hook/shadow board to hang bits will be over the die cutting table. My wardrobe hanging space will either become shelves, or clear boxes.
I love the way that the punches are dowelled to the board... easy to see, huh! I love the idea of hanging things on hooks if they can be hooked. I have organiser table tubs for markers, pens, and things I use all the time. The table I am planning will seat 4 .... but I like to spread out, so maybe I'll still be scrapping along! (LOL). The window faces north, and the room has the sun nearly all day... it's currently pink (from the previous house owners) I don't know that I'll paint it before I organise, but it would be a great time to do it. We'll see what pans out!
