My stampin studio

It's Saturday and have a full day of stampin with the Saddlebrooke Stampers today but wanted to give you'all an update on my stampin studio. As many of you know.....my DH has indulged me (once again) with a fellow (Steve) from Tucson that makes cabinets and designs rooms. He has designed and is making the dream studio to beat all Studios. It is all built-ins and cabinets to house every single tool-gadget-punch-stamp-pad-ALL for my stampin studio. His business is Off the Wall in Tucson Arizona and he does fabulous work. The cabinets will be all wood and molded pieces......slide out drawers - drop down extra work station - ribbon cabinets - punch cabinets - stamp drawers.....basically THE WORKS. I chatted with Steve on Thursday and he is about 2-1/2 weeks from completion. He has invited me out the shop the first week of November to check out my creation and to make any final changes to the unit before it all gets nailed down. I called him to ask him if he could add one more feature (along with the hundred and forty that I've already ask for).....and that was for my new 12" Cricut machine. I wanted to have that stationed at the extra work station section (will be ideal for when Cheryl comes out to visit and we do some late night scrappin-she'll have her own work station with the cricut right there for her)......and I wanted him to add a slide on the shelving unit that will be in the drop down workstation cabinet for me to put my Cricut machine and be able to slide it out so when the paper is loaded in the Cricut I don't have to pull the whole machine away from the wall each time to allow the paper to feed through. Steve said that wouldn't be any problem - so it will be one more thing that will make this design my DREAM studio come true. I've decided that when I go out to Steve's shop the first week in November to check things out that I'm going to bring my camera and start taking pictures - so I can begin sharing my studio with you'all. Needless to say....when the delivery truck arrives at our house on installation day.....I will have my camera ready for clicking from the moment the truck arrives until the final bold is insalled in the wall. That's the latest with my studio.....will keep you posted. I'm off to do a class at our LSS today with the Saddlebrooke Stampers - we will be playing all day down in Tucson. Hopefully I will be able to take some photos of our fun day tonight and post them tomorrow. Enjoy your day and remember.....Keep living your dream.
