Default ""ME Space"

Wow! What an opportunity! I have been stamping for about 3 years and absolutely LOVE it!

Unfortunately my stamps, cardstock, punches... well basically all of my goodies have to try to survive our unfinished leaky basement. Everytime it rains, I pray that the water won't get to my goods.

I can't go to the nasty basement and leave my two lovely but mischevious children upstairs unattended as the basement is no place for them. Normally, I have to drag what items I think I might want to use upstairs so I can keep an eye on the kids, and then turn around and go back down when I decide I'd like to try a different color or a different embellishment. Then I have to take it all back downstairs so the kids don't ink the walls and/or furniture up. (they have colored the walls and it wasn't pretty)...lol They are constantly trying to get into my inkpads and markers or using my punches on my good cardstock or dp. Now don't get me wrong, I love my children. I love that they want to stamp with me, and I often let them.

It would just be so amazing to have my things upstairs that I can close, so the kids can't get into them. My wonderful DH says I can turn a portion of the dining room or laundry room into "ME Space". The questions is, how would I keep my lil' munchkins out of my things? Well, this box you are offering would be so perfect and would make my life so much easier. I would have more stamp time rather than running up and down to the basement.

I think working fulltime and tending to two children is quite deserving of some "ME Space" and I hope you think so too.

Thanks so much for giving me this great opportunity. Jenn

I use my dining room table as you can't even walk into my craft room, which is also in the basement, if I didn't tell you all. It is cold down there and the heat....if there is any doesn't come into the room for hours. I have to put a small space heater in the doorway and I am afraid of the fire hazard from the papers on the floor. You can't even see the floor in my room as I walk on a layer of stuff that would now be considered trash so I have throw it all away.

I wish men were more sensitive to our workspaces....do you think they would be working down in the basement?

Nope!!!! If so not for long, they would carry it upstairs and work from the dining room table. Or in your case the dining room floor....lol.

Best of luck!

I am preparing some card kits, so the kids can create some Halloween cards tomorrow night. They are so excited. I just gotta go grab some items that I think they'll love.
