My New Craft Room.

My craftroom has for the past 2 years been in an attic room. However I seem to have outgrown it now. I think the main problem is because the room is in the eves of the house I don't have much wall space. I discussed it with Dave and I am now going to move into the spare bedroom.

I have been on a week's holiday thos week so I have madeca start. It is my plan to use as many recycled items as I can.



The table in rhis picture is one of the tables I used for craft fairs in the past. The dark wood box is the foot locker from the bed that was in the room. The bed had seen better days so Dave took it to bits and we have managed to recycle quite a bit of it for my craft room. I'm going to use this box for my 12 x 12 paper pads. They fit in there quite nicely.



This is the drawers from the bed. Dsve is going to trim the ends and put an extra shelf In each one to store my cutting file usbs. The shelves will be made from the side panels of the bed.

I'm going to be doing some more work over the weekend, so I'll update you again next week.

Happy Crafting.

I cut two base layers because I have put a ribbon loop at the top so you can hang the finished Wreath up. I simply held the ribbon in place with a piece of tape and then sandwiched it between the two black base layers. Then I added the gold layer and finally the black top layer. Next was the decoupage. I printed the decoupage onto 128gsm Navigator paper. This is my go to paper. The print quality is exellent. I get mine in bulk from amazon but if you have a Wilko nearby they sell it as well. I glued the base layer in place flat. Then I added the decoupage pieces using silicone glue. I shaped the pieces to give a better effect by just gently moulding the pieces with my fingers. The sentiment was cut from ...
