This is the place I do my crafts. My basement....turned craft station. It works very well, and I have lots of storage and work space. It's alot like cooking in the kitchen. You must have the correct tools and supplies to do the job well. It's not in my living quarters, so I can make a big mess and not have to worry about how it looks until I am done creating. I have a tall stainless steel table, and a low table. The tall one I use for crafts and the low one for gift wrapping. My cat, Baby loves it down there. All the little dark places she can investigate, and she keeps me company. Along with the TV of course! Opps.. the TV is on the left. Didn't quite get in the picture.
I made this wrapping paper holder. Works quite well actually. Two pieces of wood nailed to a wood beam. Drilled holes and put in dowels for the paper.

This is going to be my next project. Hope I get it done in a reasonable amount of time to show you the results. It is from Martha Stewart Magazine. Go to her web site and click on "good things" fall paper wreath for the directions. If you have problems getting the directions, I will type them on the next post.
