Friday I got a silly idea in my head. I wanted to add another table to my scrap corner and take out the wire rack. So I took the table out of the bathroom that we put our bath towels on and moved the wire rack in there for the towels.
See when I get a silly idea in my head I go full force with it. So instead of going through each cubby in the wire rack, I took everything out and laid it on the floor or the diningroom table!
After I moved the table out to my scrap corner I relized that it was sitting on the heat vent. The only one in the room. Well I can't freeze in the winter time sitting at my desk. So I ran down to the hardware store and bought wheels. While I was there I also picked up a peg board (2x4) to hang on my wall. And some hooks. Ohhhh I was so excited about my board! Course when I brought it all home, I still had my mess to go through. So the board had to wait.
Yesterday Chris & I went to another hardware store to buy some wood to make a frame to put on the back of the peg board. I decided I wanted to paint my board. Bought some more hooks and a can of paint. Came home and started painting. My mess still waiting to go through. :)
This morning we hung the board and I started going through the mess and added scrap thing to the board. Ohhhh I love it! I have just finished cleaning off my desk... yes I still have a mess on the floor but it's dwindling.
Here's pictures of my mess. After I get it all organized I'll post my new scrap corner. :)

You have inspired me to start organizing my scrap space. lol
A thought for your Wire racks. I have them too and I made them 3 high, but the top ones are baskets instead of shelves. I will post a pic at SS to help clarify. The reason I mention it is because they become great vertical storage for 12x 12 paper. I keep my paper organized in there as well as my SS kits.
you go girl!
I really want pegboard now! thinking i need to remove the quilt i have hanging on my scrap wall and replace it with pegboard..
I also am wondering if this has anything to do with your new column your writing for the SS mag? (hee hee)
