Update on the cabinet and room

have been very busy lately with life but was able to manage getting the cabinet together and in use. I have also started to work my way through my messy room and get some things in order and able to get into the scraprack. 
It is the perfect width for the scraprack with 2 bases, my extra spinders will be held below as well as mat stacks and my slim art bins. I have a couple more shelves to put in here. It is nice having a place to put some of these things that have been shuffled from one side of my room to the other. 
I also worked on chipboard, I love to use it here and there but storing it and using it are two different things. I saw someone that put a little adhesive to adhere to 12x12 paper and then slide into scraprack. I plan to do this for all my chipboard so I use it up. I now like buying the craft color so I can make it any color I want. I also created a benefit and reward board, along with hanging a perpetual calendar :)
Until next time happy scrapping :) also anyone reading this (incentive to follow my blog- 10% discount on ctmh order through 10/31/13- my Halloween special :) have a bless day!!!

Reuse, recycle, reward!!


Well this last Subday I was inspired to build a cabinet using some item left over from other cabinets. I could have tried to find and purchase more cubes for these inserts, but I think this is the most bang for my buck! I saved over $100 doing this instead. I also wanted to give a shout to the Lowe's gents that did some cutting for me :) Do you have things lying around that you can repurpose, reuse, recycle to reward your space?

Thanks sir!! 

Here are my plans :)

Here are the inserts that will be used as my shelf cubbies

Here is my drilled holes and now painting... Keep posted for progress and results!!
