Hi Everyone! Marie Lottermoser here today to share a peek inside my work space. Over the years I've gone through several transformations of my scrapbooking space trying to find what works best for me. I've gone from having a room full of tools and supplies to now just keeping my absolute favorites on hand and within easy reach. Like a lot of people I'm a big fan of the Raskog cart. On the top shelf I keep ink pads, roller stamps, pens and washi tape. The middle section holds adhesive, my Crop-A-Dile, a Tiny Attacher, my favorite punches, stickers and labels. The bottom tray holds my Fuse tool, paper trimmer, and larger equipment. I only keep the things I use all the time in my cart and I weed through it often to get rid of what I'm not using. Just the other day I went through all of my roller stamps and checked for duplicates. I had several identical date stamps when I only needed one. One thing that has really changed for me over time is I use mostly open storage now. I've learned when I keep things in drawers and cabinets I will forget about them. Now I keep uncovered trays and dishes out in the open so I can see exactly what I have, and it inspires me to use my stash. I have a white organizer I fill with a variety of envelopes and tags. Grouping like items together helps me always know where they are. Extra 6x8 page protectors go in a metal bin. Clear stamps go in another open container. I keep extra ink pads in the front and the stamps are easy to flip through to find what I need. When the container gets too full I know it's time to go through and just keep what I'm actually using. Jars hold alphabets and embellishments. I keep clear plastic bins out of the way which hold collections I haven't used yet, but can't seem to part with (October Afternoon anyone?). I also have a bin full of memorabilia I haven't gotten around to scrapping yet. A small bookshelf holds my albums. The top shelf is 6x8 and the bottom is 8.5 x 11. I still have some 12x12 albums which are currently residing in my closet. When a new kit comes in the mail I keep it out on my desk while I use it. When the month is over I take what's left and put it with the rest of my stash. 3x4 cards are divided by color and put in a wood coffee box. I made dividers out of slightly larger cards so I could easily find what I'm looking for. And that's a quick look at my studio! By keeping it simple and open I find I use a lot more supplies, and I'm inspired by what I have. I hope you've enjoyed visiting today!
