Crop Chocolate Organizational Blog Hop

Welcome to the Crop Chocolate blog hop, if you just found this please start here, you should have come to my blog from Michelle's blog.    I have shared pictures of various forms of organization in previous posts and if you want you can go to the tags on the right side and select scraproom or organization.  I wanted to show some new things and one of my favorite things right now are the DVD/CD holders from sterilite.  I got these around back to school time in Walmart and when I realized how great they were I stocked up.  I use these all around the house.

Here they are for 6x6 pad storage (I keep a small bag in the front for scraps)


Here they are for my CTMH Stamps


Here they are for my regular stamps


I got some of the 4x6 photo holders at the dollar store and use them for my embellishment kits that came with my MME paper packs from Crop Chocolate


I also wanted to share how I store my buttons and other embellishments (its a spice rack and rod from Ikea)



I also wanted to share some pictures of my room the organization I have in some cupboards (stamps are in the middle row)



Close up of my colored embellishments


View of my office/scraproom combo, the office is on the left and has a lower counter and separate cabinets (this way it doesn't migrate to my scrappy space)


Your next step on the hop is DeeDee's blog, but before you do make sure you leave a comment and become a follower and you will be entered in to a draw for some blog candy.  I am close to 100 followers so if I get to 100 I will add a second blog candy.

    1. Darlene they didn't always match the old ones were left over from somewhere else but when these went on sale I grabbed 3. The kids like the new ones much better and so do I but I loved getting them on sale.

  29. This is a dream scrap space! I WISH I could get cabinets like that (it would really help with keeping the kiddo out of everything, especially since I could baby proof it, haha). This is the kind of space I would dream of having if ever I lived in a space with a basement! Thanks for sharing!

    1. Keep an eye our for sales or craiglist, these were assemble your own cabinets we got at HD on clearance. The counters cost more than the cabinets and there are a bunch for the office not in the picture. I should also add that the kids (5 & 2) use the space all the time and I usually have to clear their stuff from the counters before I start. The plan was always that it would a family friendly space but I never expected that my DD would have her own stash.

  48. Your space is great! I have cabinets and counters in our basement, but sometimes find that if it's out of site, it's out of mind! I am considering moving upstairs to our spare bedroom/office so that I don't have to lug stuff up and down stairs.
    I love those DVD baskets for the 6 x 6 pads (that I seem to be accumulating through CC!). I also like your idea of storing the MME embellishment kits in the photo storage containers.
    Thanks for all of your inspiration while on the DT!
