Amazing Stamp Room
Okay, I know that it's been answered before, but I can't find the thread (even after multiple searches) with the answer. Who is it that has that most AMAZING craft room? The one with the rows of white sterilites filled with stamps? If anyone can point me to the right blog so that I can show Mom while she's here visiting, you'll definitely be my heroine (hero?) for the day!
Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much Cindy!
And honestly, even after showing her that WOW craft room that we all drool over, I have to say that I think my Mom was more impressed by how fast we had 8 views and an answer on this forum. She don't know Splitcoast do she???

WOW! Wonder if she bought all those sterlite containers at the same time! LOL You know, how you get a system going, then they change something and they don't match or they won't stack the same way? ugh
I can't imagine how many stamps must be in all of those!

Wow . Don't you wonder how much money she has spent to have this many things?
The cost of just that many Iris carts would be a kings ransom
Not counting the stamps and other products stored in them
I am sure it is fun to work in that stamp room. A person would never need to go to the store

Wow! I had seen her room before but it still amazes me that one person has that much space and product to fill all those carts. I need to print that picture and hang it in my craft room to show my DH when he makes a comment about what I have...kwim, it will seem small in compairison.

Oh my gosh! It'd only be complete with a kitchenette and bathroom. Amazing stamp room but way too much stuff IMHO. I could never keep track of it. Wow.

you would totally need to have some image binders to sort through your stamps for that amount! I'd be searching forever to find the right stamp because I need to see my stuff. Can you imagine if she wanted to unmount everything??

Well, she would certainly have a lot more room for more stamps...  I've been at this for only a couple years and thought I was going overboard. Yikes! Thats a lot of stamps...

I have 5 1/2 Sterlite drawers and 3 inches of shelf space taken up with mostly unmounted stamps. I simply can't imagine having that much to play with.
Anyone ever figure out where she keeps her inkpads?

I was amazed not only by the size of the room but also that she knew how many stamps she had! I have lots less than her and I have no clue as to how many I have!

I have 2 cats and they go into my stamping room and never cause any trouble. They usually only go in there when I go in there.

I am just dying to know how much $$ she has invested in supplies and storage. It's got to be tens of thousands....my guess (and it's just from looking at the pictures) is $60,000....I know it's gauche and tacky to guess, but I just can't help it!!

LOL! I have to laugh at that. My cat is so naughty when markers and pens and small articles are sitting out on my craft table. I always try to remember to close the door when I am not in there. And when I am in there he is climbing all over the shelves etc and knocking things down. But I do like his company. He and my dog usually "craft" with me.

My local newspaper is holding a contest for a room makeover. They needed a picture of the room, and a short essay on why you think you deserve the prize. I took a picture of my chaos in my scrap/stamp/sewing room, told them I needed help. We will see what the result is.

Mind boggling! I struggle to use the ones that I puchased just because "i liked them"! I have seen LSS's that have only 1/2 the inventory! It is the Smithsonian of stamping, takes days to view, and probablly years to play with it all!! Wow what fun you could have!

I had a friend who redid her basement into a craft space and she spent $10,000 and I thought it was elaborate until I saw this. My friend hired someone to design the room and buy what she needed in storage. They went to IKEA. All I can say is WOW!

WOW Patrice I will cross my fingers that you are chosen for the room make over.  That would be a "fantastic Christmas gift" even if they had to do it after Christmas

That is an amazing room. It's like the Library of Congress for stamping. I laughed so hard that she has a "I love Rubber Stamping" bumper sticker on one of her armoire's. I don't believe her.  !
I love her babies. They are so precious. My babies love my craft room but they are all good. It's just when I am crafting they all need to set on me at the same time. I also have my guinea pig and rabbit in that room.

And I thought I was going overboard filling up my pie safe....
I need to show this to my DH too!
I'm betting she has computerized her image catelogues. I know I'm trying to do mine that way. Its a quick way to keep up with where and how many!

That room boggles the mind!!
I would love to have a large room like that to work in, I work in my dinnete area . But I would never want that much stuff. I would never get anything done. I would spend all of my time looking through my stuff trying to decide what to use LOL
I don't have 1% of what she has and I still spend way too much time trying to decide what to use

On the link she said that she had moved and the photos in the link are of her old room. One, I couldn't imagine trying to move everything or worse trying to figure out what gets moved and what to get rid of. If you go to Homepage on the photos link, she has a bunch of photos of her new space. The new space reminds me even more of a library.

If you click on the link again, then on the screen that comes up, click on Homepage, it lists all her photo gallaries and there is one for her new room.
