You are right about the paper rack, I bought mine online, it was 300.00 wasted,,it takes up too much space and I could hold probably 4 times as much if I simply used the cubes.
I am about to get my own crafting space, an ikea expedit desk with a 4x2 cube unit. My husband is also a neat freak so will love how neat this all looks! Do you find your making memories carousel useful? I'm tempted but not sure if I should invest in one, they are £42 here in the uk and I could get a lot of ikea boxes for that much!! I've waited 6 years for a space and it isn't going to be huge so I want to get the most out of it.
I got the paper rack from a scrapbook store that went out of business. But if I had to do it over I would of just put shelves to hold my paper. The rack does not hold alot of paper & I think it is hard to get it out when it's stuffed to the max like mine is.
What an awesome job. This has inspired me to clean out the "unfinished" part of my basement. And, since we are huge Bearcat (Cincinnati) fans, that black and red theme is right up my alley. Congrats and enjoy your space.
This is what I have in mind for my space. Except I would like to have black, white and green. I really like your decorative boxes. I want things nearby, but not where everything is visible... makes for too much eye clutter. :-)
I designed this space. I wanted it smaller so I could reach both work areas without much trouble. In other words not having to leave my chair. DH talked me out of it & made it about 18 inches larger. Dosen't sound like much but it really changed it alot. I have a neat freak man so everything has to be put up. Ikea boxes fit in these cabinets we got from Lowes. There are 5 sections of 3 different shelving units. some sections were ripped out to house my paper rack & the 4 Ikea boxes I altered. Chairs from Ikea. This space is so much fun & I will post pictures of it when I'm working. It looks like a cyclone went through it. I put on a good front. I have a great guy to have such a wonderful space built for me.
