Scraproom Update Part 2
Here are some more photos of the room....
This is a closeup of the Cricut Station/Pegboard:
And the cubes:
I think I FINALLY have it how I like it... :) Which means we'll probably have to move soon. LOL

Scraproom Redo - Again! LOL
My craft room was looking so cluttered and crazy, so I decided to clean house... I bought those cubes from Michael's (with coupons of course) and purged alot of stuff. What was left over I rearranged.
The rooms was definitely a catch all... I was challenged because this space is very narrow and comes to an angle (it is one side of my laundry room).
This is what it looks like now:
The cubes definitely make it more "clean" looking and less cluttered. I got rid of a table as I rarely used it to scrap on (I have a desk area that I mainly use). There was SO MUCH STUFF under it that I had forgotten about! :)
The center table is actually a microwave cart I got at a Thrift store and re-purposed:
I like how it turned out! Which means we'll probably get orders to move soon. LOL

Photo Freedom - Stacy Julian
So I have been meaning to get my photos more organized for a while now... Stacy Julian came to the MemoryWorks retreat (I couldn't go though DANG!) and did a talk on this subject and introduced her new book, "Photo Freedom"... The consultants were revved up about it, so I bought it to see what it was all about.
It is AWESOME. It is definitely not for the faint of heart as this system is about totally not sorting your photos chronologically. It is kinda hard to explain the whole system, but I started getting out ALL my photos this weekend and am going to put this system into place.
Already I have found inspiration for layouts for photos I hadn't seen in YEARS. I think it will definitely make me more productive in my scrapbooking...
I highly recomend the book to those needing a system for their photos. Even if you can't let go of the chronological system (I am kinda anal about knowing what photo is from what year), you can tailor the system to fit your needs...
I can't wait to see how it affects my scrapbooking...
You get can get it on Amazon.com and get started right away:
And here is the website for the book:

Tim Holz's Studio
I have been getting inspiration from all these wonderful workspaces online... Ever wonder what Tim Holz's studio looks like? It is AMAZING. I have never seen so many stamps and inks (that weren't in a store) in my LIFE!
My little space is ever evolving. I can't wait till we are settled after hubby retires from the military... Then look out - I will be designing my room - my permanent craft mecca... :)
But for now, I will just have to ogle Tim's... :) Here it is in all it's fun and funky glory:
