I’d like to start out by saying “Thank YOU” .. Everyone that posted a comment or emailed me was very positive and I really appreciate that!!
This is how my Stampin Up desk looks right now … and it’s been four days ….. so far so good. Once I have a system in place I usually keep it …… as long as it’s working.
I’d like to clarify one thing …my stamping space is pretty organized. But my main desk where I check email, post on my blog, edit videos … that’s where I lost control.
I have three videos on my office .. but I’ve changed a few things so I’ll do an update soon.
Click here to watch my Chic n Scratch Stamp Room Tour … (three videos).
Here’s a video for you …don’t laugh .. I actually filmed myself removing all the clutter from my desk.
More pictures …
I’ve decided to start a “Get Organized with Chic n Scratch” Facebook Group. With a group everyone can share their ideas. BUT .. this is important … there are rules you must follow.
You may not advertise or promote your business on this group. It’s strictly for organizing. If you do not comply you will be removed immediately. I know saying that some will still try … so I’ll have a few admins to help me.
Click here if you’d like to join the Get Organized with Chic n Scratch Facebook Group. Or you can email me your facebook name and I’ll send you an invite …please use mychicnscratch@me.com.
If you don’t do Facebook (many have said) .. not to worry … you won’t be missing anything that I’m sharing. I will continue to post everything on My Chic n Scratch blog. This group is for other ladies to share their organization tips. (Several ladies emailed me pictures of their rooms yesterday…thank you for sharing!)
Have a great day and I’ll see you tomorrow!
October 4th update … Several ladies have ask where I purchased some items so here we go:
- Organizers on top of desk came from Marshalls (that store has been one of my favorites for over twenty years).
- Desk came from Pottery Barn …as well as the chair. (I cashed out of the Alaska trip due to person reasons and used that bonus to buy the desk I’ve always wanted.)
- Keyboard stand also came from Marshalls …also known as Home Goods.
- Jesus calling (book on my desk) – one of my downline girls (Kate) sent that to me when I was sick and I like to keep it near … I often say “what would Jesus do” because I feel that it helps push me in the right direction … not that I always follow that ..but I certainly try very hard!!
- Pin Boards- also Pottery Barn on clearance (buying clearance items gives me such a good feeling!!).
- And …for fun .. my awesome iMac came from the fabulous Apple Store!
Looks AWESOME Angie! I need to go through and redo mine as well, thanks for the inspiration :).
My desk is jealous of your desk:-) Looks very nice! I’ve been losing control of my whole house lately so you’ve inspired to get more organized! Thanks Angie!
You are so generous! I have been organizing and reorganizing my stuff so many times. I just need a little bit of help in trying to figure out where and how to store my important papers for my business. I am so thankful you have opened up a Facebook page for this and I am glad there will be no advertising, too. I just need the information at this point! 🙂 So I am definitely eager to see what all I can learn and who knows maybe I can help someone, too! Thanks, Angie!
This is so much fun to watch. I work from home and have my work desk in my craft room. I use my desk for both work and Stampin’ Up! and it looks like yours before you cleaned it off. I feel quite inspired to tidy it up and sort through the piles of papers I have laying around. I think I might even try some of your ideas for the filing trays on top of your desk.
Thanks so much for doing this.
Hi Angie,
I just wanted to say thank you so much for these new videos, I’m a new demo and I have been searching to find away to get the “business” side of thing organized, this is so helpful!
Could you please tell us where you got different item – your boxes on your desk I would love to know where you got them.
Thanks – Katina Martinez
Thank you for sharing pictures & video. You have inspired me to clean off my desk and start the organization process. Also, love the Facebook group. I look forward to seeing lots of ideas! Thank you so much!!!
ps…Do you happen to remember where you got the organizer to the right if your computer monitor?
I loved your videos and how you organize your stamping room. You ideas are great. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas and suggestions. I do have a question about how you organize your stamps. Would it be possible for you to share it with us again in it’s own post. I am in the process of organizing my stamps. I thought that your idea sounded so simple but well organized. I thought that I could probably do that. Thank you in advance
Great video, thanks! I noticed you have the Neat Receipts scanner, I think that’s the name of it. Anyway, opinion? Thoughts? What made you opt for the full size as opposed to the receipt scanner? I have been considering one for awhile but was wanting to hear from someone who actually had one. Can you tell me a little about it?
Thanks!
excellent timing for organizational help and I need it BAD!!! Currently I am trying to combine scrapbooking/painting/craft/sewing into one room. I have various and sundry storage like dressers, desks, garage sale finds, and those storage drawers I got from Wallyworld. I am a bit overwhelmed right now.
Your desk is very organised! Mine’s all over the place.haha. I’ll try to organize my paperwork and thanks so much for the great inspiration!! 😀
Where to do you get the glass tops you have on your counter tops and how do you have them trimmed to the desk shape and size?
