Welcome to my stampin’ space!\u00a0 I said a while back that I would be posting pictures for those of you who do not live close to me and might want to see my stampin’ area.\u00a0 I don’t know about you, but I always enjoy seeing how other organize their stampin’ Supplies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Stampin'This is my classroom.\u00a0\u00a0I can comfortably seat 10 (as set up here)\u00a0but if\u00a0we continue to get good attendance for classes, I’ll invest in another table or two and some chairs to put in the area where I was standing while taking the picture.\u00a0 My office is on the right to the back of the picture.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Stampin'Now you’re looking at part of my stampin’ office.\u00a0 This is where I sit to create all those projects you see pictured on my blog or make in classes.\u00a0 My husband and children bought me that comfy chair last year and it’s great!<\/p>\n

\"StampinMy Dad picked up this craft table at a yard sale for me and it is wonderful!\u00a0 On the left hand side of the table are little bins for storage and there is a ruler right on the table which can be very convenient!<\/p>\n

To the right of my craft table is a filing cabinet.\u00a0 I keep my cardstock filed with a hanging folder for each color.\u00a0 In the hanging folder is the full size sheets of cardstock and a manila folder for scraps pieces of that color.\u00a0 The idea is to use up the scraps before pulling out a full sheet.\u00a0 There is no need to waste cardstock!<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"ink\"Stampin'This is a very convenient way to store your Stampin’ Up! punches!\u00a0 I bought a cafe curtain rod ( a sturdier one) and asked my husband to hang it for me.\u00a0 It looks nice and is much more convenient than piling them all in a drawer.\u00a0 Now, I just need to buy another to take care of the rest of my punches.\u00a0 I have heard Ikea has nice rods for this as well.<\/p>\n

My sister sent me pictures once where someone else made this storage for their ink refills and I thought it was a neat idea.\u00a0 This is simply a yard stick to which I stapled elastic.\u00a0 Once I had one end of the elastic attached, I simply stretched the elastic around a bottle of ink refill and stapled the elastic once again and then moved on to the next.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It is very convenient and adds a little bit of color to one of my corners.\u00a0 As with the punch rod, I need to work on another one to take care of the other bottles I have sitting around.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"cuttingHere is the cutting and Big Shot table.\u00a0 It has made such a difference for me to have an assigned area for these items.\u00a0 Before I was always trying to clear space in my work area to fit them in and it was very difficult.\u00a0 Some of you from the Akron, OH \"stampinarea may recognize the quilt hanging on the wall behind this table.\u00a0 When I moved to southern PA from Akron, my “stampin’ girls” made this for me so I wouldn’t forget them.\u00a0 Have no fear though – you’ll never be forgotten!<\/p>\n

I often hear people mention that they’re not quite sure the easiest way to store their Stampin’ Up! stamps in their boxes.\u00a0 I thought I’d share what has worked for me.\u00a0 This is a DVD\/VHS stand I picked up from Walmart a couple years back that works wonderfully for me.\u00a0 The only stamp boxes that don’t fit are the largest ones like for the Define Your Life stamp set.\u00a0 I have those on another shelf to the side of this.\u00a0 This stand has little arms that can be used to hold up the stamp boxes if there are not enough to fit the whole way across the\u00a0 shelf.\u00a0 I personally like this way of organizing becuase I can see the name of the stamp set on the side of the box and I don’t have to pull sets out from under others and watch the pile tumble!<\/p>\n

Naturally not everyone has this many stampin’ items (after all,\u00a0this is\u00a0my job!) and not everyone has a lot of space (although some have more of both).\u00a0 I did not post these pictures to brag but to try to give you some storage and organization\u00a0ideas.\u00a0 I just hear so many comments and questions about storage and organization that I thought I would share what I do.\u00a0 Hopefully this will give you some ideas to help with your own questions.<\/p>\n

Thank you for stopping in at my Stampin’ Space, I hope you can attend a class or PMS night sometime and visit in person!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
