Spring Organizing with Vintage Finds: A Scrapbook Room (Part One)

Our contributing editor Elizabeth Young, just finished organizing and setting up her moms new scrapbook room. They've successfully created a dreamy crafting space reusing vintage furniture and other various finds.  

Read part one today and join her tomorrow for part two of this inspirational organizing project.

I recently helped my mother set up a scrapbook room in her new
house.  We decided to decorate it in vintage style, incorporating
antique furniture and vintage containers to meet her organizational needs. 


 JellyCabinet

An old wooden jelly cabinet is perfect for storing memorabilia and
pictures. 

Metal Cabinet
A metal Advance Pattern cabinet found in a local antique
mall also houses old greeting cards, pictures and other precious memories. 
In the middle of the room, an old harvest table with a wooden top offers plenty
of space for scrapbooking alone or with friends.


 

TomsClips 

Old store racks are handy for organizing scrapbook products. 
Chip clip racks and old metal wire racks are perfect for embellishments and
acrylic paints. 

LifeSavers

An extra large Lifesavers candy rack adds a dash of color
and houses chipboard alphabets as it sits on top of a bookshelf. 

Book Rack

An old
children's book rack has packages of flowers, self adhesive buttons and stickers
in plain view for easy access.


Visit tomorrow for part two of the Scrapbook Room design.
