Has anyone used the Gelli Plate for any mixed media layouts, cards, paper making, tags etc?  It is really fun and easy to take care of.  You can use it over and over on all types of different craft projects.  The ideas are endless.  Here is a tutorial to give you an overview of what wonderful prints you could create.

Craft Room Decor

 
TABLE SKIRT
 
 
 


Today I added a nice little addition to my craft room.  My craft table needed a little something to cover up all those loose cords that were plugged into the wall.  So I made a table skirt. 

First I bought a spring rod and fitted it to the length of my table.  I then took some material, and sewed it into a short curtain.  Another simple and inexpensive way to spruce up any room.

Ribbon Organizer for Craft Room

Ribbon Organizer




 
 
 
My craft room has been a work in progress for the past year.  Every month I think or find new things to use for organization.  Especially if I go looking through some of the thrift stores or garage sales.  You can always find things to refurbish. 
 
I can actually thank my husband for this one.  He had some of these rods in the garage that he was trying to figure out what to use them for.  He noticed I had all my craft ribbon in this nice little container.  But I had to search through about 30 of them to actually find what I wanted. 
 
So when I came home one afternoon, I had discovered this nice little rod attached to the side of my scrapbooking/ craft table.  On it was every one of my ribbon rolls and it looked "Scraptabulous"  No more searching through a box full of different color ribbon.  I can easily find which one I need and cut it right off the spool.

So easy!  Just attach two metal clamps to the side of any table.  Add ribbon to any rod you wish to use then slide it into the clamps.
