Simon Says Stamp and Show... Anything Goes! Challenge

After a little time without crafting I walked into my crafting room and realized... I have never used my own crafting room before!

How did this happen? I'll tell you;

A while ago my husband and I turned our room full of clutter into a clean crafting area. At the same time my husband was inspired by my crafting and started altering Nerf Guns.

So, I did use the room for crafting-storage but since we were crafting together I ended up in the living room, again and while I was not using the room, it became cluttered AGAIN!

Last friday, my husband left for a fun weekend out with his friends, I went into the room and started cleaning up.

I immediately noticed I needed to do some practical crafting to give it a personal touch and to add some extra storage space. It was one of those thing that are on your To-Do-List but you never get around to do them.

I decided to make that my first priority;

I started with some shoe-boxes I kept for storage but still needed to be altered.
They were from my daughters shoes so I had 4 boxes in 4 sizes.

And since this weeks SSSS Challenge is Anything Goes, I'm going to enter my "New Vintage Storage Boxes".

So far I finished 2 boxes;

The bigger box of the 2.






The smaller box of the 2.








The 2 of them stacked on top of eachother.

  2. I love your boxes! They are so pretty...It is a great idea to decorate them to use for storage. I love that you alter things I must try this sometime. I enjoyed your article about your craft room. I am currently crafting in the basement. I have a spare room that we keep saying we are making into a craft room for me, but life keeps getting in the way.. I did empty it out a lot of the furniture, but still have to find the time. Maybe on a vacation? Thanks for the sweet comments..They made my day as always.
