Making My Own Scrapbox!

Well I wanted to purchase a Scrapbox for many years

but didn't really have or want to spend that much for furniture when we

could put the money towards a more practical purchase:)

I know what is more practical than scrap booking:) he he!

Try explaining that one to your husband!

Here is a picture of the original "Scrapbox" I do love the design of it!

Look at all of those compartments!!
However at almost $1,600 I had to pass and make my own!

Here she is!! Isn't she pretty, he he!!

I bought this piece last summer for $10!  I have to admit I was

really happy with my purchase!

All she needed was her doors put on and a fresh coat of paint!

After: with a fresh coat of paint and no goodies inside yet!!

I did get a new pair of knobs for it at Michael's!

They were only a $1.00 each!

I was able to compress a lot of the clutter in this room with this

piece! I love how organized and easy to find everything is.

This drawer has envelopes:

My scrap paper storage containers:

Misc. Drawer:

Everybody needs one of those!

And finally the finished product in my room!

For only about $15 I have a nice piece of furniture that

stores a lot of supplies with out cluttering up my room:) 

Thanks for stopping by! I hope to have a room tour

up shortly to show  you my new work space:)

Happy Wednesday!
