Craft Room Update

Ok, so here is the craft room update. . . I have been pretty busy in there to get things put away and unpacked (yes, unpacked after living here for 6 months) and it feels so much better in there already.  I am still not done, but it's a lot closer than it was this time Monday Morning that's for sure!  lol  So here is the photo update.  :)

I finally found the floor in this corner of the room!!  In those two boxes I have the kids arts and crafts supplies.  Then in the bookshelf you can't really see it but I have my purple cow cutting board and magazines along with my cuttlebug.

I have two of these ribbon holders.  They also are great for doubling as a punch holder for most of my punches.  :)

This is still my "messy corner", but I think it always will be.  It's the one that is next to my desk so I want everything right there next to me.  Anyhow, you can see my paper holders (which I need more of), my cricut bookshelves, in the pink container that holds all of my stickers (yes, I am a sticker FREAK).

On the shelves I have most of the items to make my jewelery.  It also holds my prima flowers and embossing goodies.  The black cups next to the window hold all of my tools for jewelry making and all of my pens and my i rock machine.

My poor little bookshelf . . . I love cookbooks . . . most of the books are cookbooks.  The bottom shelf is my scrapbooks that I have been working on FOREVER.  The green container to the right is FULL of chipboard albums!  :)

These are most of my rubber stamps.  I put them into CD cases and my hubby mounted this awesome CD holder on the wall for me!  I LOVE IT!!!  Now I am not looking for years for the one special stamp everything is right there for me!!

So there it is!  Let me know what you think!  If you have any ideas for me please let me know!!!  :)

i rock Tool for Paper Crafting

So tonight around dinner time (of course) the power goes out.  So running out of ideas to do while the kids played with their toys and my Husband played Angry Birds on his cell phone I got the idea to play with my new i rock crystal and stud heat-setting tool by Imaginisce.  I purchased this tool to be able to add some bling to my scrap booking pages or cards.  I purchased this as a package I got the i rock tool, crystal studs, stencil kit and an i rock apron.  Anyhow, tonight I decided to bling out some butterflies.  They turned out very cute.  The i rock will take a little time to figure out exactly how long to put the heat onto the stud so the glue won't melt outside of the stud/crystal.  If you hold it to long then the you will see the glue on the project, but if you hold it for the perfect amount of time (I found around 10 seconds) then you won't see any glue and your project looks great!  It's a fun little tool to play with.  It's most definitely something to keep away from the kids due to the heat that the tip of the setter lets off.  Here are some photos of me playing around with the i rock!

The i rock.

This is to show you the size of the i rock.  It's very lightweight and compact.  Perfect for taking to craft get togethers.  It's cordless.  It takes 3 AA Batteries.

This is a bottle at the crystals come in.
