Office Re-Do /Spring Clean

I didn't take any before pictures of my office.  I'll describe it to you. 

I had a dresser along the left wall that was absolutely overflowing with craft supplies, paper, and inks.  The top of the dresser held my printer, and vintage printers drawer that displayed my rubber stamps, and a tall square shelving unit full with nothing aesthetic or useful. 

The right wall has my computer desk- iMac, a metal 2 tiered shelf, and then the small wall between the two doors of the room was a white 2 shelf cabinet and in top, my machinist toolbox filled with my pens and inks and other bits and bobs. 

Last year I moved a table upstairs into my studio with hopes of moving all paper crafting supplies up there. But I only ended up moving about half of it. I don't know why, I guess I just petered out.  The Tim Holtz stuff is up there along with all my scrapbook paper, Sidekick, dies, clear stamps along with a rolling cart of stuff. 

Sometimes the only way to really clean a room is to rearrange the room. I had been thinking about this task for weeks now. Sunday afternoon I do e head first into the project. 

My inspiration comes from an Instagram account called Um.Stationery.  

I love this space! And it's no wonder why because back when I did craft shows I used a lot of vintage wood crates and wood drawer systems, wood shelves. So I knew I had a lot of stuff like this - I just had to go around the house and find it all. 

The room is not don't butits coming along. I figured it was good blog content so I'll share it in pieces. 

I decided to get the most out of this desk space and put my computer on different desk on the opposite side of the room. And I tucked the printer in the corner on top of my wood filing cabinet. 

All my wood stamps got put into that tall drawer system at the end of the desk. 

I thought about getting rid of the dresser but it sues come in useful at hiding all the stuff. 

I cleaned out every drawer and weeded out the crap I'm not using.  Win- win!

Next thing I want to do it clean out some of the scrapbook paper and create a space for it somewhere in this space. 

What did you do this weekend? Is there anything better than a big re-org project!?

I also filmed and published a Currently Inked video on Youtube.
