Workspace Wednesday | Maggie Massey

Hey everyone! I'm so excited to be back again sharing my workspace with you! I've made a bunch of changes since the last time I was here, and I'm stoked to give you all a little "tour."

My craft space is located on the non-TV side of our family room. I love that it's here because it allows me to work on my "stuff" and still be close to my family.

So let's get started, shall we?

This is my desk. It's where a good majority of my work is done. There is actually a square table in front of this desk where I keep my trimmer and my craft mat...but it's usually full of paper cut-offs and isn't currently photo-ready, so you'll have to use your imagination.

I keep my current SC kits right here. I love having them right at my fingertips. I've found that I can't work efficiently if I'm always searching for the things I need, so I keep all the essentials right on this desk.

One of my favorite things on my desk is this little bunny pen holder I picked up from Typo. He doesn't hold too much...but he's too darling to worry about his practicality. He's staying.

Another of my favorite desk-toppers is this little Kikki K bowl I received from a dear friend for Christmas. It's currently holding all of those little things that end up homeless after a project. You know what I mean...things like the single unused label or the errant star or paperclip.

My work surface used to be a computer desk, so there is a tiny little platform (where our keyboard used to live) directly under the desktop that is perfect for holding my little dishes/boxes of tiny embellishments, including sequins, paper clips, and Color Theory hearts, stars, etc. This platform pulls out when I need it and gets closed behind a little door when I don't. Love. It.

Directly under my desk is a storage unit I bought at Target. It's not ideal for 12x12 paper or anything large, but it's the perfect size to fit in this space, and it does hold a lot of my smaller supplies. I keep all of my stamps and ink under here...I also have little storage boxes full of enamel dots, ephemera & printables housed on these shelves.

Probably my most used little cubby in this unit is my "planner storage" cubby. I have a little basket filled with everything I use to decorate my planners each week tucked in there. I love this storage solution because it's so easy for me to just grab the basket and take it to wherever I'm doing my decorating.

I currently have my planner collection on the litlte shelf above my desk. Just looking at this makes me happy. You guys know what I mean, right? My husband doesn't get it...but you guys do. You're my people.

Finally is a little hutch I have sitting on a cabinet. We picked this baby up at a garage sale years ago...and it still needs a coat of paint or two...but it holds all of my notebooks/inserts, some minis & cards and notes from people I love.

And there you have it! That's where I create. I love to organize (and re-organize) so I move things around fairly consistently...but for now this is working for me. Thank you so much for taking a look!!! I'd love to hear what you think about some of my storage solutions.
