My dear Hubby is the one that got me organized. I was at a dining room table in the family room in the basement stamping, with all my plastic drawers around me. I had to put them away every time we had company. He suggested I move over by the laundry where we had a large room not being used. Two years ago he bought banks of drawers and cabinet tops and put together 13 feet of work area and storage! He hung Ikea towel racks for my punches. There are more on the other side of the door, not showing. Also, he hung a spice rack(that I got at a garage sale) for me. I put brads, buttons, and eyelets in the spice jars. Everything is handy. I think when I can see my punches, I will use them more than if they are hidden in a drawer. Another favorite organization tool is the black thing with my markers in it. It came in a scrapbook suitcase that I won. I took it out and set it on a lazy susan that I got at Bed Bath and Beyond. It is true, if you are oranized, you enjoy crafting so much more. but it is also true that I am just as crazy about buying and getting organizational tools, containers and shelving as I am about getting new craft supplies! OCD Right! Thanks for looking. Oh if you wonder why I am telling you this, check out the Stamp-n-Storage Love Fest Challenge.

I LOVE his ideas and love that he wanted to help you organize! What brilliant storage ideas he had too. Here, if I design what I want he has to build it.

Aren't husbands great. Years ago my DH built me permanent heat gun holder right by the electrical outlet. Every time I use it I think what a great time saver it has been. I like your punch holder. Sure would beat thrashing around in a drawer (my current method) to find the punch I need.

The spice rack is genius!
