Hi Everyone,
Friday night we made a trip to Ikea and picked up those few things I still wanted for my room. I’ll link everything I picked up below…
I picked up two more Ribba shelves to complete my wall.
These really cool CD racks that my mom got last time we went and I didn’t pick up. They are only $5.99 and each one holds about 80 CD cases. I put three of them next to each other and now have all my stamps that I store in CD cases in one location.
You can also use the CD racks for 6×6 paper pad storage. I put one next to my desk ๐
I also picked up and forgot to take a picture of them with the drawers closed before Scott left with the camera for a hike, two of these units for my Expidit shelving.
Here’s what they look like opened. I ย put my tools in the drawers and they fit perfectly.
and finally this is the newest furniture edition to my room. It’s Alex!ย Alex stands about 3-1/2 feet tall and fits perfectly in this corner. I put my wooden stamps in the bottom larger drawers and I plan on using the rest of all my embellishments. The drawers are so nice and deep that I don’t have to worry about those long embellishments sheets, like journaling stickers, letters, and rub-on’s getting all wrinkled up. It’s perfect.
Alex does come in other sizes, but I picked the taller thinner one since I knew I didn’t really have room to fit anything else.
Well I think that finally completes my room. The only thing I have left to pick up is some new curtains for my windows.
Have a great Monday and Happy Labor Day!
Ikea Trip:
Thank you so much for sharing your room. I am getting ready to move into our newly built house and will have half the basement for my things. I am having hubby build me wall to ceiling Ikea unit (Expedit) for the center to act as storage and a room divider but I was lost what to do with the walls so thanks for sharing!
so nice somedays I don't know what I like best working on projects or organizing everything have a great labor day
I love seeing other people's craft rooms. Looking good! IKEA sounds like the place to visit! ๐
Your room looks AWESOME! It must be nice to have your room so organized.. I guess I better get busy… Lol.. Mine is a total mess from working in there yesterday.. But that is the fun part.. Have a great day.. I'm at work.. Better get something done !
Great job with the reno!! Love it!
How awesome….my room just isn't big enough for the shelves….and “Alex” is big….but I could see all my stuff in there….just don't have the room…..thank you for sharing…Hope you and your family have fun today!!!1
Wonderful organized!!! YOU HAVE A LOT OF STUFF!!!!!!!!! ๐
GREAT IDEAS!!!! I really LOVE those Expedit drawers sis. That CD rack works GREAT for the paper too….LOVE IT ALL!! Hugs, T
Christina, you really have maximized the use of shelving to utilize even the narrowist of spaces. Everything is so accessible. I had built in cabinets installed when we built our house, but wished I had waited until after we lived here awhile as I can see that I could have maximized my visible space much better. I appreciate that you share so many ideas. Thanks!
It looks great Cristina, I wish I had that much glimmer mist. Lol
I have an Alex too. I have all of the drawers labeled and it holds so much stuff and looks so pretty. Gotta love IKEA furniture…cheap and sturdy. ๐ Thanks for sharing!Dorcas
I love seeing your room Christina. It gives me hope one day when I get my own craft room. Great job on organizing it all. Smooches… Felicia
WOW! Your room looks great…& so organized!! I've got a lot of Ikea furniture in my room already (I have 3 Alex's in a different size) &, for my birthday, we're gonna re-work my room to make sure that I'm squeezing all that I can into it!!
Awesome!.. I can not wait until I get a “real” room… I hate that I can not decorate walls in my basement because I don't have walls,:-(.. But my next home I will have a room dedicated just for my crafts.. Great job Christina!
Your room looks great.Thanks for sharing.
love ur room
Your craft room is coming together beautifully. Love those ikea pieces. tfs
I love it when you show us your room and storage ideas. Very nice! ๐
Christina, thanks so much for sharing your beautiful scrap room – I love it!!! I also have Ikea in my scraproom – and, thanks to you, I now have the final piece of furniture that was missing. As soon as I saw Alex I knew I had to have it. My daughter and I went to Ikea today and bought it. Will build it tomorrow – but I'm so excited. Also got the cd racks (2) and will put them one on top of the other. Thanks for all your great vids. Tisha
