Stampin' Storage

I've had a few requests about the storage that I use for my stamps and supplies. So here's where I spend a GREAT deal of time - The Dungeon of Paradise - as I like to call it!

Scraps oh glorious scraps.....I keep my scraps in drawers with their color familes - all the Rich Regals are in one drawer, Soft Subtles in another, etc. I also have a drawer for my white & black scraps and then another for the confetti colors and vanilla.


Our punches fit perfectly in the drawers too.

This is how I store my eyelets, brads, buttons and beads. Did you know that you are suppose to store your markers on their sides...so if you have them standing up - give em' a rest and lay em' down! These drawer containers are from Walmart and they work perfectly on my shelves...which by the way are also from Walmart - I only paid $28 for each bookshelf! SCORE!

This is how I store my paper. I got these containers at Walmart and I have 6 of them - one for each of our color groups - Rich Regals, Soft Subtles, Earth Elements & Bold Brights. Then I have 2 more containers for all the nuetral colors like Basic Black, Sahara Sand, Confetti White, etc.

Notice the wheels hanging from the ceiling. I bought trouser hangers and cut the rubber off the part you hang your pants on - our wheels fit perfectly on these.

This is how my stamping table looks 99.9% of the time. It's tough business trying to come up with all those cards....my philosophy is "a clean stamping table is an unused stamping table!"

Notice the space heater under the table...my basement doesn't have any heat ducts....it can get pretty darn frigid down there in the dead of winter! One of my darling step-daughter's bought that for me for Christams!

This is what the creative table looks like when I have a little bit of time to clean it off and start those juices flowing all over again!
