But - today is when we also get to fly around the world and see the clutter/mess/tidiness/beautiful creations/ amazing spaces/new craft stash, etc. etc. All because the amazing Julia thought up this wonderful trip.
I have tried, in vain I must add, to get around every single one each week, but have never managed so far. The aim is not that, but to have a peep at as many as you can. Trouble is, I WANT to get round them all 'cos I'm nosey!
Anyway, my desk looks like this.
The cupboards house all sorts of stuff but mainly, glues, brads, embossing folders, sticky gems, etc. etc. You can also see my top shelf with the boxes housing ribbons, material scraps and some swapped ATCs.
My tv and freeview Sky box is on the right. That's right - I have freeview Sky. 'Peg leg' got the card for me years ago from the BBC. They are only available now if you pay! The monitor is one we bought for the motorhome, 12vt/mains, and is also a pc monitor, but I keep it in my room now. All my Tim dies are on the shelf under my Big Shot and my Martha Stewart punches are hanging underneath or on the shelf by the side.
The drop down to my work area is where I compute but the bit to the left is 12" higher to go over the washer!
The doors to the left hide the boiler and dryer plus a large cupboard full of more craft - yeh!!
I have to move the storage at the far end in order to use the washer.
I love my little room and spend as much time in it as I can spare. I hope I haven't bored you with this post but rather given you an insight into my 'crafty life'

A small room like mine but boy did you manage to get a load of cupboards in there - love all your stuff - so much lovely things - I spotted all your MS punches - don't you use them?? They are still in boxes!!!!! Loved the insight to your crafty life!
So you think I should write a book??? Oh I am far from that but I like to play with words!
Hugs,
Cardarian
oooh, you got that die, you lucky girl
Long and narrow, but like a Galley Kitchen, everything within reach. Perfect. I think I might prefer that to my room which is a pass-thru for everyone to get between levels. They will insist on tramping thru and asking me what I am doing :)

Thanks for the look see :) It's important to keep things tidy in such a small space....me I'm hopeless but it's motivated me to stop winging and get on with my sort out!!
Can't do any tonight though.....going to search out a new handbag in the sale at debenhams.....needs must and all that HOL
xoxo Sioux
P.S. I've only got 2 handbags so I don't think it's over the top do you? ;)
You have a very well organised space...thanks for sharing

Am eagerly awaiting to see the results of that new TH die. Fab crafting space - hope your special son had a alovely birthday and that peg leg's op goes well.
what a wonderful cozy little playground. But HOW do you get into the washer? hmmm
Your first craftroom phot had me thinking you had loads of space! I now see you have everything crammed in a tiny space. Well done for keeping it all under control and still making lovely things.
what a great snoop, lol. have a great weekend. caroline #13
I'm still working through the list... had some bits to finish so here I am late again!! Hope the op goes well and your scraproom looks lovely!
Bored by your tour - never!! Bet your room stays nice and warm too with the boiler and dryer involved. Perfect tidiness Joanne I must say - and I clicked to have a good look at the die - it's really nice - look forward to seeing your rosettes. Good luck to PegLeg for Tuesday, it's been a long time coming, huh.
What a fantastic craft space, and all very well organised. Great collection of Tim dies !
Marilyn
Great room with wonderful storage. Happy Birthday to your son, and good luck for peg-leg's op. Have fun with your new Alterations! Oh yep, Vale is my hero, such an inspiration, can't wait to see him on the Ducati next year!
Take care,
Donna x
What a great space to create. Well organised and sooo neat! I am envious! Thanks for sharing. Susan xoox #17
You might think it is small, but it is a gorgeous room. I wish I had cupboards in mine. And that makes everything look tidy, right along with your desktop. Sorry I'm so late getting here. You would think since I had most of my obligations out of the way, I would have freed up a bit more computer time. Unfortunately, what happened was, I was so far behind, I became overwhelmed. Will try to do better this week.
