Woohoo, I've finally made my Ikea Expedit unit and gotten my bits organised. I bought some fab 12x12 storage boxes for my paper and they are in the unit. I measured it before I went to the craft show at Aintree and each cube is bigger than 12 inches but the boxes don't fit perfectly to sit either horizontally or vertically, so as you can see in the pic they are "resting" slanted.
I also got a chrome shelf unit and have moved my jewellery stuff onto it. I haven't used a lot of it in a while so I figured if I brought it out a bit more prominently I may just dig in there again. I've put my Cuttlebug on the top of the Expedit and also my 6x6 pads have their own box now so I can find them easier. The blue boxes on the top are scrap pieces of DP and some pre-stamped images. I've taken to stamping an image about 3 times onto card so I have some spares ready to go.
(Excuse the Zippy's, Mr Potato Head and Dwarves that are "protecting" my stash!!) :D I've split out my buttons into colours (apart from my new purchases) and also the paper flowers too. I've also had to get some bigger cups for my Copics and having seen this idea on someone's craft room tour on You Tube stole it for my own! I love how they hang off the unit. I would maybe like them a bit closer to my desk (ie hanging on the shelf above the desk) but right now they are fine there.
So this is the fairly messy work desk. I tend to use the same Copics a lot for skin and hair so I've left them on the desk. Also the ones I've been using for my Travel Anya card that is still not stuck together yet are out so I don't forget which they are when I post the card on here!
I also wanted to post some pics of the stash I bought recently (mentioned in my Ugh post below). I haven't shown the LOTV stamps as you can find those easily on their website. The top pic is what I got from My Mum's Craft Shop - yummy papers, a die and some lovely flowers.
This is my Ribbon Girl stuff. The two bags of twine on the left and the lace on the left are separate from the other bits which are all part of the cream/white kit! Loads of stuff...total bargain. Have yet to tear into it as honestly I'm a bit scared to "ruin" the loveliness! Tsk will have to get over that.
Anyhoo so there you go. Let me know what you think by leaving me a comment peeps.
Hugs
