Craft Room Organization

I've been itching to try a few new things in my craft room.  I finally took the plunge and bought the supplies.

This was the screen door that was on our porch when we moved in.  At the bottom is a doggy door, but we don't have a doggy.  I needed more room to put announcements and card samples.  I hung the door on the wall and traced the inside edges with a pencil.  Then I painted it with a magnetic primer and then with chalkboard paint.  You can't tell in this picture, but the chalkboard is coffee color instead of black.  Cool, huh?  I've enjoyed it a lot.  I'm using chalk markers that I got at michaels.  No chalk mess.

It's fun to be able to display a project and then tell a little about it in writing.

New Storage

I'm pretty sure I have shown you the ink pad/marker/reinker shelf I got around Mother's Day.  I sent you to a site called stampnstorage.com.  It's not sponsored by SU!, but he makes stuff for our stuff :)  I just got this ribbon holder.  It's great b/c it comes with a little platform to display things.

 

I love that I can put my blocks where I can get to them quickly.  It's perfect!  Ask someone to get some of this for you for christmas.  Tell 'em I sent cha :)
