Deep Ocean Challenge DT - Show your craft space!

 Oops!  I am a little late with my post tonight!!  It is time for our first Deep Ocean Challenge of the year and to make it nice and easy we are showing our craft spaces this time - such a fun idea!  I love having a look at how other people store all their bits and pieces for crafting as I'm sure you know all those bits do cause some storage headaches!!  Above is a photo of my workspace and no, it never looks like this normally!!  LOL I'm so embarrassed to say I had to shovel everything off it into a bag before I took the photo otherwise I just couldn't have shown you it!!  Although I have redeemed myself I think as that has made me go through said bag and put everything away now!!
 My shelf is a Lack shelf from Ikea and the baskets and cute white boxes are from their too.  There are wood mounted stamps, glues and paints and sprays in the baskets and then the boxes have stamps in.  As you can see I have lots of gorgeous inspiration from all my friends around the world up on display on and around the shelf.  My spellbinder dies are hooked onto a metal rail (also from Ikea) underneath the shelf and then beneath that there is another rail with tubs on for all my copics!
 I have a little kitchen trolley from Ikea behind my chair that has my beloved Vagabond on it and baskets for my bigger sizzix dies and embossing folders.  There's another rail here which I have just recently started hanging my lace collection on that are threaded onto a large ring.  The ring is actually the inside of that red double sided tape we all use lol!
 Here's a closer look at the basket for my sizzix dies.  I stand them all up on end so I can see the name and they're in alphabetical order to make it even easier to find the one I want.
Lastly here is a little sneaky peak of what I'm up to at the moment in my craft room.  Yes!!!  The gorgeous winter stamp kit landed in my mail box a couple of days ago and they're all stamped out and as you can see one little cutie is already half coloured in.  You'll be seeing him on a card shortly ;)!  I also have a huge wall of wardrobes in the room that houses tubs of flowers and more papers and stamps but after I had cleared my desk I couldn't get to it to photograph lol!!  New year's resolution??  Keep my craft room tidy - yeah right ;)!!!  Thanks for looking! x

ooooh so jealous of your craft room. I just have an old bureau writing desk (the type with the fold down front) and a few bits in boxes on the floor. I'm not allowed any more room by hubby!!! :0(
Perhaps if I moved out his collection of old shaving razors and brushes I'd have more room for stamps? Hmmm!!! There's a thought.
Happy New Year Jane. I look forward to seeing more of your creations. Never has a blog title been more appropriate as yours definitely are Janes LOVELY cards.
Have a great 2013.
