Now wondering if I could create a cutting station, by getting rid of something I don't use any more ... hmmmm ... see that's one of the many good things about this WOYWW thing isn't it? it's so inspiring to see what other people do with their workspaces.

It is cluttered enough with mine. We are hoping to have a new bathroom in a couple of months and a door from my room blocked off (to allow the usable part of the bathroom to be bigger) and I have to move a big cupboard full of stamps from that side of the door. I have started already as you can see but what a job! So you have my sympathy.<br />I too tend to stand when die-cutting - even if it is electric, I also save my scraps but do tend to save tiny bits as well, no idea why as I don't do that much die-cutting at the moment and that is my bit box's main use.<br />I cannot even begin to think of all the rules made and broken in my craft room. Ah well ...<br />Have a lovely Easter<br />Hugs, Neet xxNeethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13279125547309537517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-85720156499761458162017-04-13T06:36:02.530+01:002017-04-13T06:36:02.530+01:00I stand to do everything, except sew.

But I agree that it takes a lot moving and effort to work those Big Shot dies.<br /><br />One of these days I'll be back. I just need to be able to visit others when I play, and right now, that isn't possible.

I stand to use my cutting system too but that's because of the way I have it situated on a rolling cart. I use my punched out scraps (the negative) as stencils in my art journals before tossing them. I also punch shapes and store them in a multi-box tackle box for when I need a little something extra. <br /><br />Spring has sprung, lots to do! Creative Blessings!

When I try to do it sitting down it seems like every single thing ends up crooked. So, somewhere along the line I started getting better results standing and just continued it. I am grinning because, the over flowing old bread pans I have with bitty scraps are also in color order.<br />Have a Happy Easter Julia! <br />~Stacy #32Stacy Sheldonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05196238552931006068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-28816451936593386092017-04-12T14:30:17.734+01:002017-04-12T14:30:17.734+01:00In my latest clean up Big Shot got his own drawer....In my latest clean up Big Shot got his own drawer. I have never even considered sitting down to work it. Scrap box is more scrap room. I have a fetish about bits and now am obsessed with "under paper" it has better designs than my journal.

During my latest attack on my scrap mountain it was clear that my workdesk really is too low for the purpose but I have a lovely worktop which would be perfect if only it didn't have two hard drives, one redundant, two screens and other associated paraphernalia on it. Filing scraps by colour is very organised, that's how mine started but now the basket is just one big muddled mess. Which is why I'm now working my way through the basket as you'll see in this week's post.

I have scraps wallets- I outgrew the box, mainly because I never seem to have a piece the right size in the right colour. I also had to be a bit strict with myself over how small a scrap I was going to keep. Started out keeping everything- If I could punch even the smallest thing from it, it got kept. Soon realised that idea wasn't going to fly for long.

Not a huge amount in each anymore, as I do make an effort to always go there first for inspiration/just the right colour. I am much better at chucking stuff out into the recycling bin, as I know from past experience that a lot will never be used. Hope you get your craft area back to yourself soon.
