Papercraft Haven and More

Essential Storage Tote I have been working on organizing my craft space, and stumbled upon this company that is help ing me to make a bit of money AND organize the spaces in my home, including my craft space !!!  They have key pieces I can purchase to add to the ot her piece s I have made - the recycled shoe bo xes , the shipping boxe s , and my Project Life boxes (blog post to follow) to start with!  Each piece I purchase will go with the pieces I have made, and will help to keep myself organ ized and able to get more done in the long run (or so I hope)!!!  The best thing I like is being able to cu stomize the pieces I purchase, with the spaces I need to organize !!!   I am excited for the end result - because I truly am getting more done right now by organ i zing as I have !  As I organize one thing - I move things around , or decide if I truly am going to use something again.  I am in the middle of organizing/reorganizing my stamps b...

I have so many projects rolling at once, I'm not sure if you guys are like this or not...but wow - I feel like I am all over the place right now!  The next few months is going to be really busy for me in all aspects of my life - and very much a deciding factor in what is next for me!  I am excited, happy - and really looking forward to all the hard work coming up next for me and my family let me tell you!   So, with all this work I am doing right now, how do I document things so I can see the day to day stuff that was done in order to get me where we are in a year from now?  I want to see the things done - the events we did - the education we took - the driving we did to places during our journey this year, I want it all documented so I can keep all of the little details from the year in one place! For last year - I still have to go back through my Facebook account - my emails - and my photos on my phone, in order to document some of the things we did... NOT...

LOL but we all know how challenged I am with time - how things just simply don't get done like I really want them to!  Right now, I am working more on getting things made to take to an event, than I am making things for myself!  Between that and the planning things out, things are simply just NOT going the way I want them to go for this blog!  Plus I am getting the web site planned out - so way more is being done on that end of things, than in creating for myself to be able to share things with you! I will have a fun blog post up on the Creative Paperclay Design Team blog tomorrow, tips working with Delight and Creative Paperclay products!  I also have a fun notepad holder made out of Delight product - you can check out the post here , and then check back tomorrow for my tips!!!  Fun product to work with for sure!      So - that said, I will be having some online classes ready to go the next month to start up in April!  Stampin' Up has wond...

I love to do paper crafts of all kinds, cards - scrapbooks - mini albums - bookmarks - whatever!!!!  I also love to recycle things in order to save money and make my space look really neat!  We have talked a bit about organizing - if you check out this post here , you will get a bit more about what I am working on personally to make my space more or ganized and get more done!     Back to the recycling things...I have a few shoe boxes that were just dying to get altered LO L - and altered they did get!!!  I found the PERFECT papers - along with Mod Podge glue and created 2 of the cutest containers to put things in!  One has ribbons in - the other, simply has everything I am using for my Project Life !!!  I can't wait to get the other one done I have right now - they really hold a lot of items in one!!!     This one hold ribbon and such! Supplies needed: Shoe box Mod Podge glue and brush Papers of your choice (see belo...

I can't believe we are already in the second month of 2017 - time really goes fast when you think about it!  This month, I want to spend the time getting things done for March - I have a goal, and right now, I can see how really far behind I am!  I hope these challenges help you as much as they do me!!!  Lets get started!!!   Technology right now, makes it so that you truly can keep all your stuff on your smart phones or tablets if you have one!  Usually pen and paper is really good for me - being able to cross things off a list helps me to see I really am getting things done!  (LOL when I actually get things done that is!!)  So - grab your favorite organizing items - pen/paper, tablet or smart phone, calendar - and lets get this party started!!!   Take a look at the next 6 weeks - until the middle of March.  What types of things do you have going on that you need to get done, purchased, created, looked at - birthdays, events, holi...
