my new craft room

before and after

i thought i would share some pctures of my new craft room that my dear husband so generously supervised the construction of to make sure it had all his specs included.Each day he would come to me with new hicoughs and say "the one wall has face bricks, what should we do?'  i would asnwer, " dont panic we can just paint it white, that way the room will have some character."  Look closely, he plastered it.  There were other questions along the way, i.e: i wanted panelling along the walls or perhaps some wainscoting, nothing like that in sight!

 while i am showing you my craft space i have to admit that i have a weakness for visiting the SA equivelant of goodwill, Hospice, i found that dresser with the three drawers that i lined with felt and am storing dies in it, the unit with all those narrow shelves also from you geussed it Hospice, and the old fashioned laundry basket that they used pin board for the outside of so it would have vent holes is for now a pin stand for hanging my nesties, also from the same place.

the large optometrist drawer i found there too and it is great for all my cd cases that hold my stamps.

 here's a peek inside a few of the drawers or on the shelves

 flat backed pearls galore!

 flowers in the sweet jars that my mum made spotted covers for so that i can eventually have a cohesive color scheme happening in my space

 i made this ribbon stand with rods and brackets for bathroom curtain rails

 all my stamps in cd cases with numbers on them so i can find stuff

 a few random punches i have three of these sets of drawers, but alas they are brown so they gotta go and soon!

 my MS punches and a few EK success at the bottom

Oh well i do think i have a kick ass space to craft and am very lucky to have it, now to get some built in cupboards etc.  For now this will certainly do.
will keep you all posted as to whatever changes get made
