I love my scrap space and think it's a happy place to be so no idea why I don't spend more time there lol, but anyways I think the best part(s) of my room are my 5x5 Expedit and my grandmother's very old rectangle dining room table that I use as my desk. The table really isn't super large and is the perfect size for a scrapbooking.

My favourite part is the light and view I have... It faces west, but because of the landscape of our area and the trees outside, it always has the most wonderful light... It's bright, even in the morning and the light isn't too harsh or orange in the evenings... I feel like I'm in a treehouse when I'm in there...
As for stuff I've bought, I love the IKEA Besta cabinets and all the different inserts for it... And I love my cowhide rug and Barcelona chair and ottoman... I've loved those things since I was young so getting to have them now is a bit of a big thing for me...lol

I love my desk-to-ceiling wall shelves with fun, eclectic storage for all my pretty little bits and bobs.  |

I love my white Pier 1 project desk that allows me to scrap standing up. I love my IKEA Expedit shelves, filled with my paper stash, photo boxes, and scrappy magazines, and on top hold my inspirational art and collections. I love the way my IKEA Alex drawers store all my wooden stamps in one layer, I can see each individual stamp when I pull open a drawer! And I finally, I love the light that comes through the window by day and from the lamps scattered around my room by night. It's an inviting place 24/7 |

I have a black leather chair with a pouf for a footstool. It is the only thing in the room that isn't scrap related. So comfy.

You mean besides the fact that I actually have a room now? I love my large standing height (it is adjustable) desk from IKEA. Also, the old dresser I re-purposed. The top is large enough to hold both my large cutter and my big shot so they are always handy and ready to use.

I'm so jealous - this sounds wonderful!

I love the red metal tool drawers that sit on my desk and hold most of my embellishments. They're right within reach but keep all the clutter at bay. I also have my Mum's typewriter set up beside me so I can easily use it for journaling.

I love how quiet my room is. The rest of the house can be so loud, but when I go up into my room it is so serene.

I kind of love everything in there. It is kind of like when we were able to bookmark projects at Two Peas (or Pinterest). When I went to the folders of my bookmarks EVERYTHING was so visually appealing! If I had to pick one thing....just that fact that I have the room just for me. I love my alone time! |

My scrap space is one end of our living room, which no one uses. I love that everything is right at my fingertips!

I love my craftroom. I love the fact I can have a project going and get done for the day and walk out close the door and not have to look at the mess.

My table. It's made from two kitchen countertops resting on top of two short bookshelves - all from Ikea. The table measures 8 feet long and 5 feet wide. I love a big table when crafting!  |

I have a great space. It's been a work in progress since before we bought this house three years ago. I love that I finally have a space big enough so that I can have a bunch of friends come over to scrap with me. (Once it's cleaned up, that is, LOL!) That's the best part.

My scrap room is in our loft. I have one large window where I have a counter height surface to work at. I can look out the window as I work. Directly across from that is the view I have looking down into the living room and at the huge wall of windows. I can see my garden as I stand at my craft table that is in the middle of the room. It is very light and airy. The perfect spot in my house.

I'm not sure I can technically say I have a scraproom since it is in my living room. I think the best part is an old white cupboard. There's enough space to place a page or album I'm working on. I can grab items I want to use from there or pull out a basket from the Expedit entertainment center. I recently bought some red storage containers. It's fun seeing the pop of color and it looks more organized. I like that the kitchen table is just a few feet away where I can set up my die cut machines. I feel like I've gotten a bit more done since I had to move it from the basement.
It's hard to pick one thing!

The lock on the door I laughed out loud at this one. DH looked at me and I read it to him. He LOL'd, too! |

It doesn't show the light in the room, but this was tonight's sunset out of one of the windows...  |

I love my IKEA KALLAX unit, my grey trellis drawers, and the desk my fiance bought me four years ago, even though we really didn't have the money, because he thought it was really important that I had a dedicated space to scrap.

I like that it's my sanctuary. It's in the basement and doesn't have windows but I have great lighting. My hubby custom built my cupboards and shelves and I love it. I go there and it's my happy place.
