Another piece of the puzzle is figuring out new lighting for my photos. With the back-lighting from the windows, it makes the front tougher to capture accurately so that's another piece of the puzzle I don't have figured out yet. The furniture in this room is very heavy so I can't really change it once it's in place. As you can see in the photo above, I placed my frequently used colored cardstock on the shelves of the grey work station but that's really the only thing I've set in place. I am getting three more Ikea Alex Drawer Units for the area that is currently covered with stamps dies and whatever but this time I am getting the wider width ones. Three will fit across there nicely and I will have a die cutting station there (that Gemini takes some serious space). Primarily, I still use my Cuttlebug most often but that was due to the fact that my Gemini was in the kitchen since I got it earlier this year. I plan to have one of the Sizzix Sidekicks on my desk where I do most of my work and the other one on the grey work station.
I know you won't believe it, but my plan was to keep this short today so that I can sit and actually make a card. We don't have mail boxes at the new place yet, but when I went to pick up the mail from the Post Office earlier today, I had 2 new stamps to play with in that bundle of mail — Altenew's newest Build-A-Flower - Larkspur and the newest Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Flowers set. I am itching to heat emboss and color that one this week so I'm keeping this post fairly short.
I'm hoping in another week or two I will be more settled into my new, luxurious space and have my set up figured out. For now, this is what I have and my desk is a total disaster area even though I have more actual working space here. There are just certain things I like to have at my fingertips, so I have more stuff on it than I did before. But that will likely change in the next several days.
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I really appreciate it if you've stuck with me and I'm getting back to work today.
