New Craft Table In the Works

Hello Scrappers and Friends! I have been very busy over the last week or two trying to figure out exactly how I want my craft table and now its finally almost done. All it needs now is some trim around the edges of the top. 

At the very end of the table I am planning on adding an extra board so that I can hang my punches on either dowel rods or towel racks. I'm pretty excited about that!

The board I used for the counter top is a Melamine board we got at home depot it was originally larger but we had them cut it to 72" long and 32" wide. I'm planning on using the extra pieces for on top of the other recollection cubes for more counter top space and so it is all an even surface making it flow nicely. Only paid $35 for the top. I asked about doing laminate but for the size I wanted it was going to be $210 and that was the cheapest option of laminate! The bottom cubes, if you are not familiar with them, are the Recollection cubes from Michael's.

The Other Side Of the Room

This table gives me more storage closer to my work area than my old folding table and I can fit another person on the other side if I ever have anyone else over to craft! This table top is also higher off the ground than my old table so I wont be bent over as much when crafting. Very happy with the results so far! My dad and hubby are going to get together sometime and come up with ideas on the punch storage and ideas on how to mount my ribbon holder so it isn't taking up room on my table top.

Just wanted to give you all an update! I'll keep you all posted when we get the rest completed. Hope you all have a splendid crafty time!
