What in your crafting space just makes you happy?

The link didn't work for me.

I added a shelf right next to my desk that holds my paper cutter and photo cutter when I'm not using them. Not exactly 'make you happy' exactly, but more like a 'duh!' moment. Now, I have extra space ON the desk to actually work!!

ETA: similar to Ashley, I have vintage 'heirloom' (so to speak) in my craft room-- the electric clock that used to sit on a ledge in my Grandma's kitchen. It doesn't work any more, so it just sits on a shelf and makes me think of her and good times spent in her kitchen.

I also have a couple vintage I really like that I've picked up over the years that I think are really cool-- a huge wooden protractor (it's about a foot across) and an over-sized wooden ruler; they hang on the wall. (I think maybe they were used for teaching??)

'collectible' Ashley, not vintage!! lol!! (and tell me about it-- the 1980s are retro, now-- I graduated in 1987, and that's just wrong!!)

I have an antique railroad cabinet that I got from my aunt. It's about 6' tall, 2' wide, 15" deep or so and has a bunch of shallow drawers in it that used to hold train schedules. A different aunt worked for BN Railroad and she acquired it when the railroad modernized and computerized their schedules in the '70's. She got it for my uncle who used it to hold paints, brushes and supplies. He dabbled in wildlife painting as a hobby and was actually quite good at it. He changed professions, moved, and decided he didn't need it anymore and that's when I got it. It's old, it's worn and has a great patina and it makes me smile every time I look at it!

I think the pieces in my studio that make me happiest are my Stampin's Things pieces made by my dear friend Sue. She passed away from breast cancer, and I cherish each piece I have from her.

My Cameo and all of my vinyl makes me so happy. I smile whenever I see my heat transfer vinyl collection.

Does her husband still make these?

Thanks. That's too bad because they look like really nice organization pieces. 

On old white cupboard that was in my grandparent's furnace room and the Coca-Cola and red accessories I use for storage. One thing that makes me smile is the top right drawer has a divider and it fits Cricut cartridges perfectly on each side.

I recently made a 4 sided rotating ink pad holder out of a thrift store find, which was a rotating CD holder tower. Cost me $7, $2 of that was black foam core from the Dollar Tree. I love it. Finished it on Mother's Day with the help of my husband. He kindly cut all of the shelves for me, because I didn't want to. LOL

I call my space "My Cave" it has no windows and it's just a pantry/utility closet with no electrical outlets BUT it's my space and I make it work. It makes me happy because I never had my own space.

How did I miss this thread?

My favorite things in my space (and the space itself is lousy) would be the StorenSpin w/my name on it that my friend Kathy surprised me with and all my green boxes from a company called Kyoko (I think) that are no longer available.  Of course, just looking at all my goodies makes me happy!

One of my favorite things is a border punch.  I think I've only used it twice as the flowery patterns isn't something that works w/most of my pages.  I love it because my father-in-law (who, like most men, knows absolutely nothing about scrapping) saw an ad for it in the newspaper and bought it for me.  Overall, he is not the nicest person which makes the gift even more special, lol.
