My Scrapping Space.....

So Gloria left a message saying that she would like to see photos of my scrapping space - so today as promised - I am going to share my space with you......

I am very very lucky that hubby understands my need for my own space along with my need to scrap. Hence when we built our home, it was agreed upon that I would have my own scrapbooking room and he would have his own office where he could keep all the Hooah, Hooah Military stuff. (Yeah - cause that crap aint going anywhere else in my house!!! Oh - did I think that out loud!??!! Bahahaha)

Ok - now let me be totally honest here.... Hubby was deployed to Iraq when I closed on our house - and he was gone almost the whole first 16 months I lived in our home - hence he wasn't here to say what I could or could not do!!! And that's REALLY how I came about to have my own awesome space!!! Bahahaha.... (But hey... I did hold up my end of the deal - and he has his own space as well!)

So without further delay... here is my space! Come on in, kick your shoes off, grab a diet coke and some adhesive and scrap awhile!!

Ok - so this here is the view as you are walking into my space. (The door to my scrapping space actually opens up to our living room/dining area/kitchen. So if I am scrapping I can still see through the door to the main part of our house! Which is really nice!) Oh - and if you want to see a bigger photo - just click on it and it should pop up bigger!

This is a close up of my cutting area. I have my rotary cutter here... and some really cute storage bins.

This is a close up of my work space. Due to the "T" shape work area, I can actually have three people scrapping at one time - which is really nice! (And you can see my 13" KNK and laptop over on the right hand side!!)

This is my closet - to maximize the space in my room - I took off the doors and I covered the doorway with white curtains. I also took some of the matching fabric and make a strip on the bottom of the curtains, and then I took some scraps of the fabric and covered the buttons on the top to make it coordinate with the rest of the room!

Here is a photo of the inside of the closet! I actually put that closet organizer in there all by myself! (Which is quite a funny store as I actually got stuck in there and couldn't get out!!!! LOL)
Here is a photo of my storage/display area. I made the shelves out of 1/2 cement blocks and wood boards that I painted! (Supper easy and cheap cheap cheap!) This is where I store a lot of my ribbon and such - along with my solid colored card stock (yes all that paper you are seing is just solid 12x12 card stock!!).

Here is a close up of the display area with a different set of layouts/projects on it. I love this system as I complete an item I can hang it up and display it before I actually put it in my book! And if I get bored with the view - it is easy peasy to change!!


Well that is it for the most part - Hope you enjoyed visiting!
