Organizing Part II

Happy Hump Day! 
Okay so today I'm sharing what I put into the new Alex drawer set on the right.  This side is not nearly as organized.

The top drawer still holds all of my Dylusions, TH Distress Inks and now I have room for my embossing powders too.

The second drawer has my alphabet stamps, clear stamp blocks and other stamping supplies.

This drawer has paints, stencils and other items that I use to create texture on my projects.

This one is my craft junk drawer.  It has all kinds of embellishments that I don't know where else to put.

The bottom drawer has some ribbons but I think this might change because I don't really use ribbons to often.  I'd really like to have my stamps in these drawers so I'm sure I'll be doing more rearranging over the next few days.  Its so hard to get things just right, lol. 

Well, thanks so much for coming by today :D  I'd love to hear how you store your stamps or any other suggestions you might have.

Have a beautiful day :D

Organizing

Over the last couple of weeks I've been trying to reorganize my studio to come up with a layout that works best for me.  So today I thought I'd share a little bit of what I've done so far. 

We moved into this home over 2.5 years ago and it took me almost 2 years to really start using my new studio.  I really loved my last studio an this one just didn't feel inspiring to me.  I think its because it has carpet and I was so afraid of staining it with paint.  I eventually got over it and yes I did stain the carpet, lol.  The other problem was the lighting so my DH installed track lights for me.  It still has lighting issues but it's much better.  I like to work sitting down so I'm trying to bring my supplies in closer to me.  So yesterday I rearranged and added another ALEX drawer set to my workstation.

Excuse the mess on my desk :D  I haven't cleaned up after my last project.  See the red box in back of my ottoman, it holds fabric and has my old sewing machine on top. 

Okay....so, you wanna see inside my drawers?!! 

These are the drawers on my left:

This is where I keep all my pens, markers, Exacto knifes and adhesive.

I just set this drawer up yesterday, it has all of the new jewelry things I've been buying lately.

These are little odds and ends.  It also has a sliding organizer on top.

I found this organizer at my local grocery store.  It slides back and forth nice and easy :D

These are all my brads and buttons.

The last drawer holds all my rubons. 

I don't wanna bombard you with too many pics so that's it for today.  I'll be back tomorrow to show you what I put in the new Alex draw set on the right.  If you have any organizing tips or suggestions, I'd love to hear them. 

Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!!!



Dylusions Make Me Happy!

I finally had a chance to go by Stamp Antonio and pick up my order of Dylusions Ink Sprays :D  I can't wait to start playing with these babies!

After I picked them up, I went to Home Goods and found this spice tray for $5.99.  Luckily they fit in it and in my drawer perfectly.  I like to have my things nice and organized so I know where everything is when I need it.  Since I've been back, I've been rearranging all my supplies and my furniture to make my studio more functional.  I think I might need to do a little purging too, we'll see ;D  So far I'm really liking the changes I've made. 

Thanks so much stopping by today, until next time!!!
