My Rubber Room

Since I haven't had the time to be all that creative this month, I thought I'd share a couple of photos of my Rubber Room (where all the Antics take place).  It generally does not look this neat!   I have to say that I'm somewhat organized (in my own way), but there are lots of areas that I need to work on.  The problem that I've found in re-organizing, is that when I'm done - I can no longer find everything that I THOUGHT was in a place that would be obvious to me LOL.  Oh well - that's why we keep re-organizing all the time.  AND find things after the fact that we just KNOW are there somewhere!
Does that mean I have too much stuff?   Probably, but I don't believe there's any such thing as too much stuff!  As my sister says, the fun is in the collecting!


You'll see that I've "acquired" a Cuttlebug, a Big Shot and a Grand Caliber.  I find that I use them all for various things and reasons.  The black Iris carts on the right are filled with all my wood mounted stamps.    The black cart sitting on top of the white cart holds my embossing powders & glitters.   I try to have the things I use all the time handy to me.


The larger white carts with the deeper draws hold my Sparkle N Sprinkle unmounted sets!   The trays on the table hold all the newest Sparkle N Sprinkle embossing powders, glitters & flocking!!!
I keep all my "scraps" in clear shoe boxes on the bookcase - I find I use them more that way.   My 12 x 12 cardstock & paper is located in the white Iris carts to the left.  Of course, there's more in other locations too LOL.   As I said - I'm somewhat organized.   $$$ prevent me from being in the Rubber Room of my dreams :)  Right now - the floor  (and my trusty aero bed) make up my guest bedroom with all the other things as "decor".


My desk is filled with all my "go to" items, including my trusty Copic markers!   Under the desk are more Iris carts - the left one is filled with various ink pads.  

Hope you enjoyed the little view of the Rubber Room!

  5. How wonderfully organized you are in your stamping room! I am half organized and half piles of stuff I don't have time to figure out where to put so it goes on the floor! Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving me a comment!

    1. I'm smiling as I read this! I guess I'll have to show photos of when all my stuff is piled on the floor too LOL. Trust me, it only looks this good once in a while, when I actually have to "clean it up" for some reason.

  6. Thanks for the tour! Now I feel like I've "been there". I used to have a nook in the rec room - it's slowly seeping across the room to the computer area and now I'm thinking of selling my unused living room furniture and moving the tv area up there. (My kids are appalled at the idea of a 25 foot craft room!)
