She started it!

Well, I have obviously been neglecting my blog. I have been scrapping though, just haven't had time to photo and post the layouts. My mom recently did a post... about me... to my surprise! Actually, it's more about my scrap room. So, I thought it would be good to dust off the blog and share my scrap space with all of you, too.

This is my little scrap closet... And I do mean LITTLE! My desk measures 24x40 and there is j-u-s-t enough room for a chair, so I can close the door if I want/need solitude. It is supposed to be my hall closet, but my dear hubby decided I needed a place of my own and we could find a home for "normal closet stuff". {I actually think he could foresee me using the dining room table for the rest of our lives and never eating on it again :o) }

So, I designed on paper what I wanted on each shelf, measuring along the way and he custom built the shelves. My dad made me the wooden boxes that house all of my 12x12 paper. If you have ever met me, or maybe just read here occassionally, you know I am a little ocd about color... I love ROY-G-BIV! I love having everything in the order of the rainbow, it makes for a bright happy feeling when I need something!

If you click on the photos they will enlarge so you can look closer, if you feel the need. And feel free to comment or email if you have any questions about organization or any products you see. After helping friends get organized over the years, we all come to say the same thing... once you find a home for everything it really helps you be more productive and surprisingly helps you spend less because you know what you have and whether you have room for it if you buy it, lol! Hope this helps someone out there! ;o)

I'm so happy to see a creative scrapper who makes a closet into a creative den. I've been housed our dungeon like basement and get a little envious when I look for ideas and all I see are 14 x14 rooms with all creature comforts (I"m sure they are not all that big....)
I am wondering how you organize your paper. It is my biggest weakness. I'd love to hear what your method is
