Ok, Heidi - here's a challenge for you: send me a private message and tell me who you think is the next most deserving person in any of the threads to receive the Workbox if you were not chosen, and why you'd pick them.
You've done a great job in positive thinking and wishing/hoping/dreaming it would be yours...but step aside for a moment and consider who else should get it!
Just checkin' in to see how you are doing. Looks like you are holding up well! I think we need to start another game hey? Like, If you could only grab 10 things from your craft stuff what would they be? Or what unconventional things has scrap stuff helped you with? (like, I recently used tacky tape on myself to keep a new blouse in place as I was going to a memorial service and didn't want to worry about, well, ..... cleavage showing. :oops

I sent you a pm...I feel for the judges trying to narrow down the applicants to just ten...but I personally enjoy the fun and creative entries...just my opinion...
- How often would you anticipate needing to close it all up so it would be tucked away and out of sight?
- What would your approach be for keeping the work area uncluttered so you'd continuously have open crafting/work space?
- What else would you do to the area you'd place it in to augment it (since our craft supplies exceed our capacity to store them, WorkBox or not! - LOL!)?
- Based on the photos of it, what if your favorite nook or cranny in it?
Since the workbox keeps everything in one place, it would be quick and easy to put everything away as I finished with it. It would be closed up unless I am currently working on a project. Isn't that the whole idea of having a cabinet with doors. There is no need to clutter the table because there are so many trays and cubbies to keep everything. I would only need to get out what I needed and immediately put it back. I honestly don't think my craft supplies will exceed the capacity of storage space (I hope). My favorite feature would be the spaces wide enough to store paper laying flat. I also like the little bags that velcro to the doors to keep embellishments separated and easier to see what is what.
I know without having to spend so much time gathering my supplies and then the time to put everything back...I will enjoy that time crafting and do it a lot more often since it won't be such a bother...and I love love love the paper crafting...
