Before/After

Shannon sent me her idea for storing ribbons above, which is very nice and made using just a crate, a few dowels and a little glue gun.
Then I went to her blog, I saw this before and after of a dining room cabinet. Really great to be reminded that we can recycle units and sometimes those are the best and prettiest of storages ideas.

A great studio

Sometimes the greatest ideas come in the smallest packages. And this is one of them. We often forget that having a great space to create is not about size it is about creativity and what inspires us to create. Some are lucky and have amazing rooms, others have just amazing spaces in their cupboard.

Suzanne's Stamping room

Love it! I will let Suzanne explain it.


All my cabinets except those on the right wall are built on casters and actually roll into different configurations so that I can change the floor plan when I have friends over for classes.  The walls are a pale yellow and the floor is a dark black hardwood.  All trim and cabinets are white. The tile on the cabinet tops are 16 inch floor tile and are not fastened down so that I can change the configuration of the cabinets as I like.  The words on the walls are vision, art, dream, and imagination. I hope you enjoy looking at my space - I have enjoyed showing it off.

Another Crafty Sponge Idea

Organizing sponges used for stamp crafting can be a pretty tricky and messy challenge. We've seen crafters across the world look for ways to do so.
Angie, at Chic' n Scratch, has found a unique way to re-purpose a great organizational item found in your garage [or buy new from your local home improvement store].
