Hello everyone!! I’m here with CASology today!! Shocker right!! Well don’t be! We have a fun new series taking place every Thursday and Friday from now until mid-November.
Its called the: CASology Craft Space Tour Series
On Thursday and Friday, you will get a peek inside each of the Design Teams Craft Space!!! How exciting. Yesterday, was the first day and Kimberly really showcased her craft space and it’s amazing!! If only my space could look as cozy as hers!!
Now onto my space:
So I’m not as fortunate as some of you with an actually craft room, I just have a corner. This space is in my room, right under the TV. There is were I sit and craft at 2am in the morning. I have everything right at my finger tips.
On my desk to the far right under the gray cover is my Brother Scan and Cut and in front of that is a bin of cut cardstock. On the left, behind the screen is my bins of pens and pencils that I need for everyday use.
Under the desk is a file cabinet that has color cardstock in the bottom draw and in the top draw I have washi tape, regular tape, stapler, scissors and other knick knacks!!
Carts
I have two of the Ikea carts filled with all of my fun favorite toys. This one has all my markers, inks, embossing pastes and embossing powders.
The second cart is full with my tapes, sprays, embellishments, mini distress inks, stencils and the big box items on the bottom.
Shelves Under the Desk
Under my desk you will find a bin of dies that I have yet to file properly. They are just in this bin and I know exactly what’s in there. Dies from all companies!! LOL! Next to that is black cardstock and stickers that I don’t use often.
Underneath that shelf, I have some miscellaneous stuff: a texture boutique, my banner punch board, 1-2-3 punch board, and some other things that I use every now and again.
Additional Storage
All of my “craft stuff” can’t fit by my desk so I have an additional space in my living room and basement that houses the rest of my belonging.
My living room is pretty big and it has this hug bay window so this is where I shoot most of my photos. This area is usually a lot neater but I didn’t have time to clean it up but I also wanted you to see what it looks like while I’m using it.
The table by the window is what I take my pictures on and in the six drawers are all of my clear stamps. I use this space to pack my packages, take my pictures, and its a place where my nieces, daughter and I craft together. They love it.
I would show you the basement, but its under renovation. So we can’t go down there!!! It would be a super nice craft space but the windows are super small and I need sunlight.
So this is my craft space and I love it!! I hope you enjoyed this small piece of who I am!
Thanks you so much for stopping by!

Hey Hannelie!! Yayyy, I’m not the only one. Ok, I don’t feel so bad. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment.
Thank you for sharing your craft space! It is proof that one doesn’t need a huge room outfitted by a designer to make beautiful cards!
Hey Susanne!! Thank you so much for your kind comment. I try my best with what I have!!
Thank you for sharing your craft space! I always enjoy seeing others fun & helpful ideas 🙂
Hey Paper Baker!! What is your real name? You comment all the time and I thank you for that, but I don’t know your name. Thank you for your kind comment.
So fun to see where you create all your masterpieces. I love that you get exercise when you are crafting because you store things in different rooms. That must be how you stay so skinny.
Hey Joyce!! Thank you so much for your great comment. Yes, I get a lot of exercise but I also buy two of things because I can’t remember what I have, LOL!!
So fantastic to see where and how you weave your magic! I have a shared craft space too, so can definitely relate! Thanks so much for sharing, Kymona!
Hey Hazel!! Thank yo so much for your awesome comment. Man, image if we had our own space, we would never leave, LOL!!! I’m glad I’m not the only one with a shared space!!
Kymona you make such magical things happen in your wonderful little space!! my craft space is one single wall of my guest room!
=]
Hey Michele!! Your the best! Thank you so much for your wonderful comment.
I didn’t know that you’re an early bird too! I love seeing your space!
Hey Amy!! Yes, girl, I craft at 2-3 am to be up by 6am for work. LOL!! I have to make sure my kids are sleep because I won’t get anything done.
Great space! TFS
Hey Pam!! Thank you so much.
Hi Kymona, Awesome space! Great use of a smaller space with those carts, ect. One of those IKEA carts is on my Christmas wish list to be able to keep all my inks closer at hand. It’s amazing how much wonderful work you get done in a small space. My space is so much bigger and I don’t get near as much done!! Have a great weekend and thanks so much for sharing,Maggie PS: At one point, I think you said that your daughter had a blog also. Is that right? I even think you may have shared. If so, would you share again? Have fun creating with the girls this weekend!!

Hey Maggie!! Thank you so much for your awesome comment. Thank you so much for your support!! Yes, my daughter does have a blog. She hasn’t posted in awhile but you can find the link on my page on the top banner, My’s daughter blog. Click that and it will take you straight there.
Kymona, this just proves that it doesn’t take a fancy, schmancy craft space to create beautiful projects! You are amazing! I love that despite the small space, you seem to have things organized/categorized so that you can easily find what you need! Really, isn’t that the key?! 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Hey Melissa!! Thank you so much. You made me feel good about my space. I so want a dedicated space but until that happens, I’m ok with what I have. I try my best to be organized, it doesn’t happen all the time, LOL!!!
You have managed to pack a lot of crafty goodness into a small but well thought-out area. Thanks for sharing your creative space.
