I get asked a lot how I store many of the items in my studio so I thought I would address some of them here on my blog. My favorite storage is my mini "shelves" on my wall where I store my favorite DecoArt Paints, Inks and just some of my stamps…..
This is simply t-grid metal 4' strip for an acoustic drop down ceiling that you see in most commercial uses. I purchased the 4' strips at Home Depot for about $2.50/each and installed them into the studs with screws. There is a natural lip on them to keep your items secure.

Very low cost and keeps everything right on display at your fingertips (plus it looks pretty).
I will tell you that this storage does go all the way up the wall and I just added the bottom "shelf" this week to house more paints (I guess you could say I am slightly addicted to DecoArt paints).
Here is a photo from Creating Keepsakes Creative Spaces Vol 2 (awesome issue I highly recommend) that my studio was featured in:
Stay tuned for more tips from my studio……..please let me know if you have questions on how I store particular items. Always happy to share!
"The single most important thing in life is what it means to you. Life doesn’t come prepackaged with this meaning either; you create it. Doing so is rarely easy, but it’s always within your power and well worth the effort. You’ll be far happier for troubling yourself, rather than letting everyone else design your life for you."
