We moved this summer ('07) to a house that was more than twice the size of our old one. This house was EXACTLY what we were looking for, a room for each of our kids, a big basement/rec room area for DH, a guest room and an extra room for my stamping stuff! Sound great, right??
The problem?? Well, the basement isn't finished and we are not moving stuff downstairs yet because we want it out of the way when we do start working on it (DH is actually supposed to make some calls this week!). So, to make a long story short, everything that is going downstairs is in the garage - including my stamping stuff!
During the summer it wasn't bad, I would open the garage and could stamp in the warm weather. I didn't mind spending time out there keeping everything neat and tidy - but now it is winter and COLD! So things pretty much just get put anywhere there is an open space and my stamping is done in the kitchen.
My goal for this week - CLEAN UP THIS MESS! DH has also agreed that I move a card table into the living room, that way we can have the kitchen counter back
Stay tuned for updates

It will all get organized eventually. Hopefully in a beautiful new room just for you in your lower level. At least you have an excuse. My living room/office looks like that and we've been in our house for 5.5 years! LOL

there's hope for me! I'm so impressed with how you organized everything...now I'll have to try to get my things in order to! Some trips to thrift shop to look for shelving, maybe? Thanks for the inspiration/motivation!

is there a spot on that table to actually stamp. cause thats how mine is. i end up with soooo much stuff out on my desk top that there is literally NO space to actually stamp and i am trying to stamp on top of tape and stamp boxes, ink pads etc. its challenging...but you know i like to keep my stamping abilities sharp that way.
