The Scrap Shack

Welcome to "The Scrap Shack". It's a work shed that has been transformed into a place for crafty goodness! The room is mainly for Scrap Booking but I really do all kinds of crafts here. My hubby basically used it for a storage shed for a year and just when he actually started using it for home improvement projects, I asked him if he would help me transform it into my "Scrap Shack". Figures huh? Just like a girl!

He really does love me because not only did he say yes, he painted it, carpeted it, tiled the entry floor and work bench, and built all of my cabinets, and hung anything I asked him to hang!!

There's a small seating area behind my chair you see here. You can see part of the "living room" as I like to call it to the right of the picture. My friend Francie actually put 2 of those great chairs on her curb-- so I snatched them up! I did absolutely NOTHING to them! They were perfect!

I know you're drooling over the ribbon holder! I did the same for several months when I saw my crafty girlfriend had one! Turns out it was hand made by her dad and I thought I was out of luck. Several months later, her sweet daddy made me one and she put the finishing touches of Mod Podge details on it! It's really special! It's one gift I'll never forget!

I have used my Mother In-Law's antique Singer Sewing machine as a buffet. I have all of the comforts of home except for a bathroom and air conditioning or heating! So, in the summer we use lots of fans and in the winter we use heaters! But, honestly I don't mind! It's part of the charm of the Scrap Shack.

We've had some wonderful Scrap Shack parties here. We've enjoyed many laughs, heart to hearts, tears of joy, delicious food and our share of cocktails. It's the memories I've made with some very close and trustworthy friends that makes this place so special to me.  Are you crafty? Where do you create? If you send me some pictures I'll do a post about where you create!
