Now, here it is opened up and ready for some scrapping.

The majority of my loose paper is in here. As you can see, one door holds most of my Tim Holtz stains, alcohol inks, and Glimmer Mists.

Some day I may paint that shelf on the wall black to match the rest of my furniture.

The wall shelf holds ribbon, flowers sorted by color, paper leaves, and wooden embellishments.

Here's a cool piece that I picked up at Hobby Lobby.

I have all my stencils, chipboard, bling, embossing powder, and metal in the drawers. My photo paper and printer ink is stored here, too. Loose flowers are in this piece as well.

Ok, I upgraded to the new EZ View 2.0 desk when my ScrapBox was finally ready to ship. 

Justification? The Original Scrapbox knocked $180 off of the shipping because it was shipping at the same time as the Scrapbox.

I kept my old white scrap desk, too. Maybe it will get painted black at some point.

Here's a view of the top of the desk.

Well, I have to share my lake view with you!

Eventually the window seat will have pillows and cushions so I can read in here, too. That decorative box holds all my unopened flowers. Recent purchases are in the glass topped wooden piece. The tiered organizer from Harbor Freight holds other recent purchases that I want out so I remember to use them. (For me, out of sight, out of mind.)

There is a sun room attached to my scrap room. Right now it is where the dogs stay when we are not at home. Thus, the doggy gate. It's also nice that there is a door to the deck right here so I can step outside to photograph my layouts and let the dogs out without ever leaving my scrap room.

Just a view from the sun room here to show the bathroom right behind my scrap desk. This makes for easy clean up. The vinyl saying on the wall is a remnant from when my daughter used to have this room. It's her favorite saying. Don't worry, I didn't boot her out! She left for college so I finally got to take over the room.

Now, that I've shared my room with you, Kim has asked me some questions.

Q: When designing your room, did you have a theme in mind? Where did the inspiration for your overall design come from?

I really did not have a theme in mind. I just wanted to become more organized and get rid of all the 8 foot shelves I had lining all the walls of the room. I felt like I was being attacked by scrap supplies every time I entered! More space was important so my sister has a spot to scrap whenever she comes to visit.

My favorite thing about having my own room to scrap in is the ability to close the doors and know that it will be just like I left it. If I get a little messy no one will see it unless I open the doors and invite them in! I enjoy being able spread out in the entire room. I love to go in, turn on my favorite music, melt my favorite Scentsy and just scrap away. I love having the room to display my favorite layouts, mini albums or canvases, too.

My favorite piece so far as looks is the Hobby Lobby chest. My favorite organizational piece is the ScrapBox. So much scrap crap fits in that thing! And, it closes up and looks very tidy. I love the little table that folds out of the ScrapBox as it gives me another work surface. This is really cool when my sister comes over to scrap with me. We use it for stamping or setting up our punches. OOPS! I forgot to tell you, I store a lot of my punches in the drawer of the white desk. But, I have shelving inside the closet (built by my brother) that holds more punches, extra albums, and partial Swirly kits. And, I forgot to mention, I have an entire bookshelf in the guest room for all of my albums-38 of them at this point. And, they all match. I know-OCD.

Probably the best decision was the flooring. I've already shared with you why I like the bamboo flooring and how hard I was on the carpet. I still need some kind of window treatment. I have been mooning over some of the Tim Holtz fabrics. Otherwise, I think we've covered it!

Happy scrapping!
