My Messy Closet Under the Stairs....

Is now an organized mess, thanks to my mans crafty hands. He often watched me struggle loading and unloading the closet, trying to locate just the right paper, ribbon, rubber stamps, etc. 

Then one day a couple weeks ago he said what if we get more plastic containers for all that paper and make another sturdy paper holder.  It's similar to the 1st one he made me, but without the fancy finish (you can see the 1st on here http://mymanscraftyhands.blogspot.com/2011/09/my-custom-deluxe-12x12-paper-storage_18.html.

So here's some before and after pic's of the "messy closet under the stairs" and my new paper shelf w/ two little handy drawers at the top....  

This is the closet before, with most of the paper is already out.

Here's some of the homeless paper, we're trying to organize.

Here's the awesome shelf my husband made to hold all my paper :):):)

  

Here's everything back in.
He even extended the closets existing shelf & added an additional florescent light to the shelf.

Now all the paper containers are labeled and much, much easier to get to.

This is my boy Randall, he's trying to figure out how he can use our new and improved closet ;)

Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday weekend!

Hugs,

My Custom DELUXE 12x12 Paper Storage (part 3)... FINISHED!!!

Here it is and it turned out AWESOME!
I LOVE My Custom DELUXE 12x12 Paper Storage and all the extra drawers!!!!

Thank you babe, ♥ you ~ xoxoxo

Please Note:  Nothing is as orange as it appears in the pic's.   It was the wrong time of the day for pictures, hence the poor lighting.  It's truly a very beautiful color, in person.

My Custom DELUXE 12x12 Paper Storage (part 2)... The Progress!!!

 OK... I'm very excited!  We're close to having my awesome new cabinet, that DH built, in place.  My husband did a great job and everything is going to fit just perfect.  Since my DH is not known for staining his creations, that's where I come in handy.  I've stained it dark to match everything else in my studio.  Below are some pictures of the progress and I'll post a pic's of it in place and all filled up, once it dries.

Above pic's are the sanding process...
Below the staining process.

My Custom DELUXE 12x12 Paper Storage (part 1)... My DH Is Multitasking!!!

(Back)

(Front)

He's still working on G-Ma's B-day quilt.  He's completed the top of the quilt (it's gorgeous and now needs to assemble, quilt and bind it.  

He's also started another project (for me).  He's building a heavy duty storage for my 12x12 paper.  We had initially purchased a rolli-cart that was supposed to store it, but soon found it to be too weak and very unattractive.  So he's come up with a great design, that will hold more paper and be much stronger. There will also be second side that will accommodate the drawers of a smaller rolli-cart, so that everything matches and creates more counter-top/work space at the same time.  Another beauty to this is I can finish it in any stain and with any design my little heart desires.  Here's a peak of my man's crafty work... It's not finished yet, he's in the garage working his magic now :):):)  I'll post completed pictures at a later date, once it's all finished.

Have an excellent day and ♥"NEVER FORGET"♥
