My Creative Space


I think Kirsty's still on holidays this week, but I'm still playing my creative space anyway..... mainly because I wanted to show off the fact that I actually cleaned my workbench!

I spotted the plastic container idea over at Kimono Reincarnate last week. Melanie has all of hers nicely labelled, but I haven't managed to get that far just yet.

The great thing is that they're see through (so you can actually see whats in them), and they stack nicely, and I only paid around $15 for 50 containers and lids from Lombards.

Now, lets see if I can keep it this way..... wishful thinking?

  3. Looks great. Is that an old sideboard you've used to store your things in for shelving? I've only just noticed it but it's a great idea. Just the right sized shelving with drawers to have at the back of your work table.

  6. It's looking great Cam. I tried to do the plastic container thing but I still manage to get into a complete shambles. It's a semi-organised shambles though. So plastic containers do control it a bit!

  13. This is a good storage set up. It's like a tv series called Mr Maker, which has this storage wall made up of lots-o-boxes, filled with lots of wonderful craft things.

  15. It looks great Cam! And yep, the plastic containers really do help... my room is still a mess, but a little more of an organised mess with the containers :) Love your sideboard!

  16. Looking good Cam! I just paid the kid to clean my room. Ahhh, to be 13 and think that $2 is well worth the trouble of folding and shelving an entire wall full of chenille!
