Jen's Stamp Room

I’m sometimes asked what my stamp room looks like, well, I stamp in my basement.  It’s great because I can be messy down there and nobody cares.  So, I’m using glitter and it’s going everywhere – who cares!  .  Here’s a photo of my main work table with inkpads, ribbon, markers and lots of other accessories just within reach.  I also have lots of samples (including a photo box of favorite cards) here for inspiration! 

There is a four drawer cart to the left of the table which is where I store my punches, crimper, adhesives and other things that would just clutter up my table.  I also have a small box of scraps within an arm's reach.  Scraps are great for figuring out color combinations, experimenting and adding little pieces to your projects!  When I first started stamping I saved everything!  Now, I only save the big scraps and there is another box next to my garbage bin to recycle other scraps, the backs to my SNAIL® refills and other paper and plastic items.  I did have to go buy a clock to hang above the table though because I was staying up way too late stamping and having a hard time getting up in the morning! 

Really, all you need to have a “stamp room” is a table and some storage for your stuff and you’re all set!  I would recommend that you get some cardstock storage to start and then add an inkpad caddy, stampin’ stacks and ribbon storage as you get more supplies.
