A couple of weeks ago I posted some pics of my stamp area. We had been to Archiver's and I'd purchased some pieces from the Lisa & Becky rail system. I decided I liked some items I'd seen at IKEA better, so yesterday we returned the items to Archiver's and then went over to IKEA. Of course being Saturday the place was quite busy, and you can't just run in and run out of that store. It's designed like a maze - one way in and one way out. You must go through the entire store even if you only need one item. Great for sales, bad for the consumer! I'm surprised Ed didn't explode before we got out of there. I behaved myself and didn't stop to look at every little neat doo-hickey that caught my eye!
Anyway, we bought the rails and stuff that I wanted and Ed hung them up for me this afternoon. I'm SO, SO, SO happy to FINALLY have a way to store my large punches (bottom rail)! These guys are heavy and take up a lot of room! I plan to buy a different style ink storage, so I'll be moving the white ink pad storage I have now. I'll eventually get two more rails to go over my desk. I have some tools and things that need to be out where I can see them so I don't continue to forget that I have them!
Here's what it looks like now: (for "before pics" please see post from May 16th)
