Lift Bridge Studio Tour - 2022

 I just realized that I haven't shared the final studio pictures here, and I have been meaning to do a video for a while, so here are both all in one. The pictures were before the snow started and the video was filmed in winter, so you'll see a few minor differences.

To see where I started, check out these posts:

• Construction complete
• Mid-way through construction
• Tear out complete and temporary studio
• Getting ready for remodeling
• Before anything started

The video tour is online now and I'll embed the video into the post when I'm able to.

As you walk in, you'll see the long counter and cabinets go floor to ceiling. I love the sliding glass door that brings in lots of light and gives me access to the back deck.

The base cabinets are used to store 12 x 12 paper and a selection of Art Bin containers.

The desk area has my most used supplies stored in an Elfa drawer unit to my right, and my die cutting machine on a stamp storage cabinet to my left. The cabinet was painted to match the new decor and I put pictures of our garden above it to provide more color in the room.

This custom stamp shelf from Stamp-n-Storage was also painted to match the decor, and houses my Stampin' Up! and other stamps in DVD containers. It also makes a convenient shelf for my pencils!

Some of my favorite products for organizing supplies are listed below. Amazon links are affiliate links.
