Post by CT Girl Julie Pearce – #11 in the series ‘Where do you create”?

Its my turn this month to share my Craft space. My scrapbook room is small, and pretty organised. It's an open room at the back of our house apparently it use to be a laundry before they renovated the house. I'm really glad I have my own room, I was starting to overtake the lounge room :-)



Here is where all my paper goes and my Raskog full of my mixed media and sprays etc. On the second self I have paper bags, small paper pads, felt doilies and envelopes and the bottom shelf has rub ons, stickers, and a container full of mixed wooden buttons and resin flowers. I have my stencils hanging on my cupboard, which holds a lot of finished pages that need to go into albums. 



As my nearest Ikea store is 1000 kms away,  I picked this Expedit cubes up second hand on my local buy sell and swap facebook page. It holds my flowers in empty Moccona coffee jars, my albums ( that I need so many more of), my new picture mate, my Big shot, punches, flairs and washi tape. On the top I have my printer and some more flowers and a lot of projects I've made. The bottom shelf holds my dies and embossing folders, alpha sticks, Beyond the page things and more stamps that I don't even use. The plastic draws hold my chipboard, lace, enamel dots, pearls, bling, buttons, crochet bits, bows, leaves, twine, wire, inks, stamps, and stamp tools etc. Would really like to get the Alex draws from Ikea to put my stamps and inks in.


My desk is high as I like to stand and scrapbook. On my desk I have my laptop and my silhouette cameo, and my work desk I have my mat, cutter, light, craft caddy from Kaisercraft. Under my desk I have my adhesives, glue, coloured pens, my gelatos, die cut shapes still in there packets and various things in the bottom basket. The other side has my Dymo labeller, some note books with my colour samples of gelatos, inks etc, more die cuts, tags and empty jars I got from Coles yet to be filled. My sewing machine is under my desk and my heat gun is on a hook at reach also.



I love my little scrap room, it's my little place to go and create.

This is my turn to present my craft space this month.  My craft space is tiny, but i think I'm pretty organized.  So there it is:



This is my Raskog.  I bought it at IKEA.  I love it!  My medium are now well organized.  My only regrets: why I didn't take the Turquoise one?????  lol



This is my organisation for my embellishments.  I have several plano box (box for fishing accessories).  Each box contain a different colour and i have one for wood embellishments and one  for metal.  I love this organisation because, i easily find what fits on my page.

I also discover that I have a better use of my stuff.  I admit, you have to be a little bit disciplined, because you have to sort everything when you buy new stuff, but i worth it!  



The last thing that i love in my craft space is this book.  It's my medium inventory.   I found that, often, it's hard to properly judge the colour of a spray just by looking at the bottle.  So i made this book with a sample of all my medium.  When i need a particular colour, i look in my book.  Also, when i shop for new ones, it's fun, because i know exactly what i have.  




So this is my little heaven!
Thanks for looking!

Post by Ct Girl Lizzy Crust –#7 in the series ‘Where do you create”?

From the beginning of time, man has needed a place where he could relax, a place he could have as his own space.

The cave man had his cave..


Tarzan had his jungle.


Batman had his Bat-cave..


And men have their sheds..


Well I have my scrap room.. At first glance to the untrained eye my room may appear to look like this…



But when I walk into my space it feels like this..



It may appear to look like a mess, but to me everything is just where I need it to be.
And while I have a mish mash of cupboards and drawers, I do know where most things are.. I do however get a pleasant surprise on occasion when I discover a long lost range of papers or embellishments that just moved slowly into the back ground of my room design… So what does my space look like?..

I have a couple of photos so you can see where I sit and create..

Looking at my desk… ahhh I love that corner!! Everything is around me, I just have to swivel my chair!



One of my most used tools is my Big Shot that is just across from my desk and this gives me a reason to get up and stand to cut out my die cuts..



One other aspect of my scrap room that I enjoy and this helps in the process of creating and relaxing is the view out of my window which looks out into my garden. Often my horse walks by, or magpies dance across the lawn in search of food, and other birds sit in the tree for a rest out of the sun..



My dream is to one day have one of those scrap rooms with the matching cupboards and everything in lovely containers named with wonderful tags on the front, but for now I am happy to have this little place to call my own..

Post by CT Girl–Tracey Henly .. #5 in the series Where do you create?

I was lucky enough to always have this room for my craft. Its original intention of use was a formal dining room. When we first moved in I just made do with old pieces of furniture from our old houses, that didn’t have a purpose in this new house. So it did look like a jumble sale or op shop for a long time.














Back in 2012 I decided to have it custom built, I used the builder from the company I work for who constructs our school uniform shops.
These photos are when he first completed it. I did have before photos but do you think I can find them!!!!














Then I filled it up with all my goodies. I was really happy how it looked like a little craft shop.
That was until I started using it. Then of cause it looked like a bomb had hit it. LOL.






 Hope you enjoyed looking at my favourite room. It is a joy to create in there.
Tracey.
