As promised, I'm sharing more photos of my stampin' loft "redo" with you … this is the left side of the space… this houses my Big Shot, my cutter and my scraps. The stamps are on the wall on this side of the loft on shelves.
From left to right on this counter, i have my scraps, my cutter, by Big Shot and all my dies and my craft pads…. I organize my scraps by size… small, long strips (which I seem to have a million of) are together, then scraps about the size of a card front are together, and then small scraps.
Hubby raised my cutter by a few inches for me with some scrap lumber… since I'm tall (but he calls me short), it's nice to have it a little higher. Under the cutter.. another Elfa cart:
This Elfa cart holds my extra ribbon rolls, extra glue, extra sanding blocks, extra glue dots, Stampin' Up! bags, Stampin' Spots, and probably some miscellaneous stuff..
This counter holds my Big Shot and Big Shot dies, and the craft pads.
I got his acrylic holder in the kitchen dept at the Container Store and it fits my Embossing Folders, Big Shot plates and the larger dies just perfect!
And i store my embosslits and sizzlets in the little plastic boxes that the personalized stamps and some A la Carte stamps come in:
While it may not be beautiful, it's functional… my XL Big Shot dies are on stacked letter trays…
We'll continue the tour next week.. be sure to stay tuned…

Patty, I’m redoing my small craft and sewing room. I saw some storage ideas that you used that I liked. Thanks for the tips. I check you blog almost everyday and I love it. Thank you for the wonderful ideas. Becky
Your room and all your hard work is an inspiration. I check your site every day and look forward to new ideas and all the fun things. I love your flowers in your yard.
Wow Patty – amazing what you can do with a small space…and encourages me to get the back bedroom cleaned out (ouch this will be a huge project!) and get my Stampin stuff back there so I can be totally organized and functional – instead of taking up so much room in our family room – though my guys like me being with them when I am playing…!!! Thanks for the great ideas!
Hey Patty,
Where did you get your Elfa carts? Are they from Ikea?
So organized and beautiful!! Great job. I have a question – what is that where you have your craft pads? I like, I like!!

What great use of your space!
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Is that a Carl Cutter and do you like it? Cuts multiple sheets of cardstock? I need a new one and want to purchase something I’ll love.
Thanks!
Whitney
What a wonderful space. I’m so glad you’re showing us photos of your re-do. Those elfa carts are great, and what a great idea to put XL dies in letter holders.
patty–i have the same Carl cutter you do, and i’m wondering if you ever have a problem with it not cutting completely straight. i screw the blade in completely tight, but seem to get this strange occurrence where it doesn’t seem to cut straight. just wondering. if you don’t have this problem or don’t have time to answer, that’s completely fine.
