Up on the steps is boxes of memorbiia that needs to be scraped, a stack of past counterfeit kits still bagged up (will be seperated the 1st of the year and put away), big old box of scrap paper (maybe Counterfeit Kit will use that for a kit one month all scraps and using plain cardstock for the 12 X 12 (hint hint ;)
A closer look, past counterfeit embellisment kits that need seperated and put away (hence the big box for the little bits and pieces) My 2014 Dec Daily that needs finished up and mini that needs finished up and a couple of totes for crops
 My stickers are corral in this box
 My current counterfeit kit sits on top of the one pedestal of drawers
And half of my craft desk that houses y electronic cutters (the cameo is my favorite to use now).
I missed ne shelving unit on the full wall at the end of my desk. That houses the punches I use most often, stamp sets I use most often, Inks and stencils, tapes, markers, more photos, wood stamps, alcohol inks, beads to melt for enamel dots, and odd stamps.
That is my room in a nutshell :) I spend alot of time in it at night after breakfast and some in the morning after work. I hibernate in here during the winter months and when allergy season is strong in the spring and the fall I'm in here quite a bit. Summer and December is when I'm probably least in my room. I think that I'm set for retirement when it happens a decade for now till then I'll enjoy playing with paper as long as I can and when I can :)
Aye Aye to the Captains of the Jolly Sistas :) and Ahoy Me Matey :) Yo Ho Ho :)
