Happy Wednesday! So, I've never played along with Workspace Wednesday before, and I highly doubt this will become a "regular" blog feature, but I thought maybe today I could show you a photo of my current scrap space - which is completely a work in progress!! As most of you know, we moved into our new home less than two months ago. Packing scrap stuff was insane. I'm truly embarrassed at how much I have. Before we moved, I purged a ton. I donated several huge boxes of product to a local home for girls that I used to volunteer at, and I also sold about 10 flat rate boxes jam packed with product. I feel like I still have enough product to start my own store. ;) One of the things we love about our new home is the attic, which was renovated by the previous owners. It it a perfect space for a scrap area, a small workspace for my husband, and someday it will probably also serve as our playroom.
Here is the picture from the house listing:
In our old house, I had tons of cabinet space and room for a few shelves. This space is fantastic, with lots of natural light, but it doesn't have nearly as much room for shelving. We put our IKEA Expedit shelf up here, because it was truly the only place in the house that it would fit!! Here was the "bare bones" of my workspace a couple of weeks before Christmas:
Looks nice and clean, right? That's because nothing was unpacked yet. ;) Here is a look at it yesterday. If you can believe it, I've already packed probably 15 boxes in addition to all of THESE boxes!!
The shelves look like they are decently put together, but I actually just threw stuff up there haphazardly as I unpacked it, and I haven't even unpacked the "bulk" of my product yet - that's all packed in about 10 individual pizza boxes.
And finally, a close up of what is on my desk right now - Project Life, Week 2!
I have a LONG way to go in this space. It feels wrong spending time organizing my scrap space when there are still other sections of our home that are in disarray!! But, I am happy that it's gotten unpacked this much, and that I have a place of my own to create! I think when it's finally finished it will be pretty fantastic! I will continue to share photos of the progress, as well as photos of other parts of our house! Have a great day, and link me up if you, too have a Workspace Wednesday post!
