This is where I store the majority of my goodies. My dad made these drawer units years ago. He had them in the garage my whole life and when he passed away I moved them into my craft room. I love them so much and it's really nice to have them as I always think of him when I'm in there.
The drawers with the pink sticky notes are for kids. Whenever any kids come over I set them free in there and they know they can only go into those drawers... and the shelving on the north wall, of course. I want to label them nicely, but I'm forever changing them around when I bring new goodies home.

That's wonderful that you were able to use these drswers for your stamps and have a little memory of your father at the same time. It's like having a little piece of him with you while you are in there.
Your orginization looks wonderful.

Sweetie - I so know what you mean. I sit at my Dad's old roll-top desk when I stamp, and most of my things are stored on a bookshelf he made for me. He's gone now, but the memories are precious. Linda

I love this. It must be so nice to have such beautiful and functional drawers. The fact that your dad built it with his hands makes it even better! I was wondering what you were using to store your ribbon in the other picture. Mahalo for sharing your neat craft room.

First of all, I am totally jealous of these drawers! And what a wonderful plus that your dad made them and they are such a tangible reminder of him! It just adds such a great organization to your space! :-)
