My Little Corner of the World

I thought I would post about my little crafting corner. All my life I have loved making things. I have tried just about every craft known to man. Right now, I am really into papercrafting - making cards, mini albums and little gifts out of designer paper. It's a ton of fun!! But, I needed someplace to store and display all my pretties. What to do, what to do???? Dum da da daaaaaaaah! Adam and Hayden to the rescue!!!!! They put up these four wonderful floating shelves for me. They are so cool, and they let me show off all my fun creations. It makes me happy just to look at them :-)

We got the shelves at Home Depot. Adam and Hayden had them hung up in less than an hour. I am so happy with the way they turned out!!!

Here is a look at my creative corner. The black thing, to the left of the chair, is my Crop-in-Style tote. It is full of paper, stickers, embellishments, etc. It is so handy when I go to a crop. Everything in one place and on wheels. The hardest part is getting it in an out of the van. Did I mention it was FULL of paper - it's just a little heavy :-) The white shelf on the right holds my stamps, inks and various other really fun tools. I absolutely LOVE having everything at my fingertips.


Recently I participated in a supply swap sponsored by a fellow blogger. It was a lot of fun. It worked like this - we all filled up an envelope or box with supplies we didn't want/need/like anymore. The items could be brand new or well loved. You could send unopened things or even the last few sheets of a paper packet, or a half a package of stickers. Then, we all sent our boxes ,along with enough to cover return shipping, to Marion (the fellow blogger). She took the contents out and then mixed them all up. Then she filled the boxes back up and returned them to us. Somehow, she managed to make sure people didn't get back the same things they had sent. It was like Christmas seeing all of the neat things that I received (see picture below). I got a lot of things that I would never thought to buy or try.



WOW three posts in less than 24 hours!!! And I'm not even caught up yet :-) See ya' later I'm off to go craft.
