A Day of Organizing.........My Cricut Cartridge Solution...(For Now.....)

I was "off" Tuesday....... had to work on my "Off Day" Monday...and I had already planned to do some organzing, purging and cleanup in my scraproom........So....I promised to do some Scrapbook shopping for my sister....(I am on a Scrapstuff spending ban....so shopping for her "satisfies" my urge to buy something scrappy...)(hehe..) anyway.....while I was out shopping for her...I found a multimedia cabinet that looked like it would work well for my cartridge storage....I understand that it leaves absolutely no room for growth (And I am NOT buying anymore carts for a while anyway).......but at this point....I just needed space for my cartridges so that I could see what I have....And ....guess what?....while doing this.....I found that I had two "Rock Princess" carts......sooooo......I put the extra one in my sisters box that I am sending her.....She'll get a kick out of that......(hehe...)

Well, I was using a 1x5 IKEA Expedit shelf that I have lying as a base....But I had to stack the carts one in front of the other in order to store all of them.....So the Expedit was not working for me for cartridge storage because I could not see what I had.......I moved a couple of the Plastic drawer towers that I had on top of the Expedit (they house a lot of my stamps, Tim Holtz  and Sizzix dies...)....and I placed the Multimedia center in their place....Now I can see all of my carts that I have in the space....

I did have to use the Expedit for some of the carts because the multimedia center would not house all of my carts..... I placed my Licensed carts in one of the cubbies and placed my solutions in a decorative box that use to hold drawer liners.  I used plastic canvas to keep them in place.......I think this solution will work for now......

I had a pretty successful  day of organizing...(I think)........And yes, this was the "Only" thing I organized.....(hehe...) but I was pretty happy with the results......But .....I have a lonnnnnnng weekend coming up.....Hurry up 6:00p Thursday......I am looking forward to organizing some more.....TFL...(click on pics for larger images)
