Introduction - My Craft Room

Hi everyone,

My name is Glenda, and I love to craft (and hopefully blog lol).  If it involves cutting, sticking and colouring, then I'm in my element.  I've been making cards for years, and I've been trying to get into scrapbooking, but I can't seem to find the time... I need to try.. I have thousands of photos and umpteen empty scrapbooks, all waiting to be utilised!  I just keep seeing new techniques and products and get carried away and distracted by all things crafty.

Anyway... I seem to have a disease.... I CAN'T STOP BUYING CRAFTY GOODIES!!!!

And I thought it was about time I try and share some of my creations with you all.  I will try to do some tutorials at some stage, although not sure you'll appreciate my Northern Irish accent LOL

For now, I will try and keep you updated with my most recent makes or make (depending on how much time I've had).

Firstly, I thought I'd let you see my craft room.  I've been very fortunate that I live on my own, and managed to convert one of my spare rooms into a work space - which ironically, I'm running out of space in!!!

One of the best investments I ever made was on an original scrapbox work box- here's the link to the youtube video

A new one was released last year I think, but I have neither the money or the space for another one!!

Here's mine opened out - before I stuffed it full of goodies..  the box opens to almost 9 feet, my room isn't wide enough to get it all in LOL   I've told my Mum it'll do me for a coffin when I die LOL
Once I had that in position, I filled it full, and put in my other worktop and desks around it.

It looks untidy, but I promise, I know where everything is... yeah right... I'm forever finding a drawer full of goodies I'd completely forgotten about LOL


I've since screwed cup hooks into the bottom of the shelf on the left, and hung up all my metal dies. That'll be a picture for next time.

So, that's my introduction done...

watch this space, hopefully I'll post a wee project very soon :)

thanks for stopping by,

Glenda

  1. I have a similar disease, I can't stop buying fabric. There is no cure, you just have to learn to live with the condition.
