What’s On My Craft Table?

Hmmm… Maybe a better question is, "what's NOT on my craft table?"  In the midst of creating projects, it does sometimes seem as though I have every tool, stamp, ink pad, etc. on my workspace.

But this is really about what I like to have near me EVERY time I craft, So the tools and products I have on my table at all times! 

Craft Table Full

Here's the full shot of my craft table, with all the items I always keep on it while crafting. It's never this clean! Yes, this is a pool table converted to a craft table. My husband is very sweet to me!
Craft Table Where I Stand

This is my typical view of the table while I'm working. Where the "magic" happens, as they say! Ha ha!
Craft table-markers, tools, scraps

The photo box is where I used to keep my smaller paper scraps, I've changed this since taking the photos. The black tool holder spins around and holds tons of goodies. My Stampin' Write markers are always nearby!
Craft table-sponges, blocks, cleaner

I always keep Grid Paper on top of my craft mat. My Stampin' Scrub and Mist, clear blocks & sponges are used on nearly every project.
Craft table-bigshot, cutter, scoring

I need to update this photo, too! I've recently purchased a new Stampin' Trimmer, which takes up much less space on my table! Behind my cutter is my trash basket and wipeys (for inky fingers!). Then, my Simply Scored tool and Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine!

So, there you go! The items I always keep in arms-reach while I am being creative and making handmade cards and scrapbook pages!  My stamps, ink pads, and other embellishments and tools are kept in other locations, to be featured at another time.  Until then, let me know if you have questions.  I have learned some great stamping organizing tips over the years!

Happy Crafting!
