Happy Hello, to all friends and visitors!
Welcome to the MY SPACE CHALLENGE of
Joy Clair's
Around the World Card-Making Day!
* * * * *
This will be a little bit of a re-post for some of you.
For many of you it will be brand new!
I am in the process of purging and clearing my space,
so it was not possible to take updated photos.
These are from the last space hop I did.
The basics are all still the same.
My goal is to clear out what I'm no longer using,
make room for new things I want to focus on,
and have everything organized and pretty! :o)
* * * * *
There you have a look at where I work.
If you're interested in seeing more, it will have to wait until my room is finished! :o)

Now on to some business from Joy Clair about the days events...

I am blessed to have a bright room that measures 13' X 16'.
It's been my craft room for 18 years and has seen a lot of changes;
both in crafts and in set-up.
I really can't share the whole room in the condition it's in but I'll share some parts.
My husband is very talented, and builds me anything I want.
He actually came up for the plan for these shelves.
The end unit is my die-cutting station.
My Big Shot goes on top, and my dies are all close-by.
I always work standing up.
I colour sitting down...but otherwise I'm always standing.
This is where I work.
I had my husband build a raised area for me, so I don't get a back ache.
I also work on a glass surface.
It's just my favorite surface to work on for many reasons.
Everything I need is close at hand, either on top or under the work surface.
If I turn around from my work surface, this is what you see.
My trimmer, score board, another glass surface, and lots more, is all easily accessible.
The unit under it is from an old Eaton's Department Store.
The drawers are huge and very strong.
You'd be shocked at how much they hold!
That's why I didn't share any photos of them open! lol

This is one of my favorite organizational spots.
It's in the black filing cabinet right under my work surface.
The first two drawers are shallow and hold inks and other mediums.
This bottom drawer holds all my 8 1/2" X 11" cardstock.
It's all sorted by colour, then in front of each colour is a file folder to hold the scraps in those colours.
When I need a smaller piece I search through the scrap folder first.
Here's a peek at one of my pegboards.
This is my favorite ribbon organization!
Do you know what these trays are?
They're chick feeders from a local hardware store.
Yes, actual chick feeders and they hold ribbon spools perfectly!
I love this system, and since this photo was taken I have added more!
There you have a look at where I work.
If you're interested in seeing more, it will have to wait until my room is finished! :o)

Your room is so neat and tidy. Mine looks like a tornado hit it.
