My New Stamp Room PLUS Embellishment Organization

As many of you know, our family moved in mid-December and I've been busy designing and unpacking my NEW STAMP ROOM! As you can imagine, it's been fun to do all the planning, but the unpacking and organizing have been exciting AND exhausting at the very same time!

I started a stamp room organization series of video tutorials on my Be Creative Stamping Facebook Page on March 31, which is the day the construction began on the new stamp room. 

Just in case you haven't been over on my Be Creative Stamping Facebook Page, I have been broadcasting a daily Facebook Live in the Hive at 3 pm (ET).  I'm posting the Embellishment Organization video here on my blog because I have a free PDF that you can download and print.  I'm hoping you'll find this helpful and it will encourage you to get organized, too!

At some point, I will post the entire organization series here on my blog, but for now, you can find it on my Be Creative Stamping Facebook Page and my Be Creative Stamping YouTube Channel!  I hope you'll hop on over to one of these social media sites and take a look!
