My
desk top (pre-made formica countertop purchased at Lowes) holds my die cutting machine, a clear glass vase for border
dies and a galvanized container from JoAnn that houses 8 1/2" x 11" colored
cardstock in pretty geranium file folders. A red wire basket containing a trio of Pottery Barn galvanized
buckets that hold various pens, markers and hand tools (scissors, hole punches...).
The boxes with no dividers will hold 18 PTI ink pads or 10 rectangular pads like Memento, Memories or Versa Mark. You can find these at JoAnn.
This one with dividers is perfect for the small Color Box cat's eye & Versa Magic dew drops ink pads.
See the stack of clear boxes to the right?
They're ArtBin boxes that hold my ink pads.

And now to the upper shelves.
The
top shelf holds lesser used item. The square plastic boxes in the
center came from Archivers. They hold fabric, patterns & magazines.
The large galvanized tubs are from Northline Express and
are actually wood bins. I found them online, they're really light
weight and have lids. One holds floral design supplies and the other
gift wrapping supplies.
I found the geranium nesting boxes at TJ Max. I
keep curling ribbons, small seldom used craft supplies and larger rolls
of ribbon in them. The silver photo boxes are from Ikea and they actually hold photos...go figure!
Call me sentimental, but I have a few special items on the shelves too. The red polka dot flower pots are left over from a Mothers' Club brunch I chaired when our son was in high school. They held large fabric & paper blooms for a spring fashion show!
And that finishes up part two! Tomorrow I'll show you more of what is at either end of my desk. I have a couple of great storage tips to share. See you then ~Lisa

I have enjoyed your little tour. I cannot believe that it is a closet. There is so much stuff there, and it is all organized so nicely. Want to come over to my place?
OMGosh, so neat and tidy!! I need you at my house to organize me lol!
I love your crafting space, Lisa! It's very pretty and cheerful. Thanks for sharing it with us!
You have such an eye for perfection and everything having it's place. I sure wish you could come visit me and and helping me find it's home. I have pulled apart and rearranged and I am in the process of pulling apart again. I really should not have done this because I have not got it back together and I am not sure I like where it's headed. Ugh. I just can't get a right feel for what works. Between the right storage for stamps. (where do you store your DeNami images)
Lisa more awesome organization. Your nook is so cozy and organized--swoon! Wish we had a Joanne's here may need to take the hit for shipping because I want! lol

You're really good at Math, aren't you? If you saw my desk you might want to dial 911 or pat me on the back, out of sympathy. Lol. All kidding aside, your craft area is amazing!

Oh this is all organized so well Lisa! I use those clear art boxes to store and stack so many thing too. I love that they are made in America. The polka dot pots are pretty to look at as well. Oh I love your red PB chair. Thanks so much for sharing your space with us. This space is so you! Someday I would like to see a picture of it all messy:)
Thanks for a lovely peek into your world, Lisa. Can't imagine working in an area that is soooo organized! It takes me forever to find the items I want to use.
Love your crafty space, Lisa! Thanks for sharing and for inspiring me to get my buns in gear and get organized!!!!
What a darling, little space, Lisa! Gosh, I just love how you've color-coordinated everything, and so organized, to boot! Not that we'd expect any less ;). Hugs!
Love all your containers & thanks for the tips about the Art Bin boxes.
jealous since it is so wonderful! :)
I didn't see where you said what the desk top is made out of?
Hi Jessica! Thanks for stopping by to check out my art studio. The countertop is a pre-made formica one we purchased at Lowes. If you don't have a Lowes, try Home Depot or a home improvement store.
