I know you probably heard me talk about changing my room on some of my videos. This started back in January of 2022. I really wanted cabinets! My husband and I decided it was time to start.

I did so much research, wrote down measurements of everything. I actually made an amateur blueprint! The biggest thing for me was to get more work space. Before, I was using both my desks when I was making something. It included the desk I made my videos on. So when I needed to make a video, I had to clean up the desk.

I might put in upper cabinets, but for now I’m just going to see how this all works.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Edited to add- one of the most common questions- what color is my room? Rainwash by Sherwin-Williams!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

You can see these pictures, and pictures of my former rooms all the time- there’s a link on the side (from a computer) or on the bottom (from a phone) called “my stamp room”.

Here’s a video of my room:

 

 

That’s a happy me in my new room!

This was one of my best ideas of all time. I used to store my scraps in folders by family (brights, subtles, etc.) I realized it would be much easier if each color had it’s own folder/pocket. Here’s what I use (I use the 8.5×11 portrait size for the scraps) :

How I store my dies and 12×12 DSP. This changed for the good, too. My dies are so much easier to see and manage.

I use those boxes for my classes. The long basket holds envelopes. I got the basket from Pottery Barn Kids many years ago. Those long baskets are meant for diapers!

Here’s the boxes I use for my classes:

Another long basket for Embossing Folders.

I saw this Scalloped Pin Board on Pottery Barn Kids. Even though my kids are not kids, I still go on PBK once in a while. Some of the things at Pottery Barn Kids are not just for kids!

I have mostly personal stuff on it- pictures of my family, things my boys made for me. And, yes, a note my husband left me when he went to work one day. 🙂

Update:

 

First, here’s the video of the changes (and you’ll get to see my puppy!):

 

But, I made some big changes. Here we go! (I am including original pictures and links)

My desk where I make videos. I used to have it covered with a table cloth, but that was kinda annoying. So I found some things to make the desk more usable. The first picture is how it used to look, the next two is how it looks now:

 

Ok, here’s what’s on this table:

Desk Hutch

Phone Holder for Videos

Wood Look Mouse Pad

White Mouse Pad

Here’s the biggest change- my Ikea Kallax. After using it for a few weeks, I decided I really wanted a bigger one. Ikea is great with returns-if it is assembled, you have 180 days to return. You just bring in the big heavy thing and they give you your money back! I got the new one and added doors to the bottom.

I added TONS of stuff from Stamp-N-Storage. I love their products, it has made my room so much more organized.

First picture is how it used to look.

Now……

Here’s the new size I use and the doors:
