a question, for those of you with a dedicated scrapping room....

[Annette25]

I've taken over the spare bedroom, where I've got a (messy) desk and a (messy) double bed to work on. I've cleared wardrobes and under bed drawers to hold stash. A ramsay ladder goes up to the loft from this room, and DH has a massive scalextrics thing going on up there, including rather elaborate homemade dioramas with loads of buildings, people, trees etc. I love working up in this room during the day but do feel a bit guilty being up there in the evening when DH is at home. I like it best when DH is in the loft tinkering with his toys and I'm scrapping in the room below, and the kids are pottering with a few rubber stamps, making cards or up in the loft with their dad scalextricing. It's really quite lovely to have all my family absorbed in something that doesn't have a screen. Every so often DH shouts down the ladder for a metal ruler or some tape, or I'll shout up wanting a hammer to bash some eyelets. Great fun!

we are in a bungalo so im not too far away but no i dont get lonely. DH watches DIY shows at night and the wee one is in bed by 6.30 so i sneak away from it all(although the dogs come too) and scrap away. in the old house i sat at the dining table but hated having to pack everything away every night.

I have a lovely craft room but have recently thought about using it for something else as we don't like spending the evening in separate rooms, I think it actually stops me scrapping. If I had to use the dining room table at least I'd be in the vicinity of dh.

My DP smokes so tends to be in the garage most evening anyway as I wont allow smoking in the house. If we are intogether watching a film, its only been on 10-15 mins and hes gone again. So even if I am in my room, its no difference to being alone in the lounge lol. My son is only 4 so he is in bed anyway. My main companmy is my cat who follows me everywhere so it doesnt matter if i scrap in the lounge, kitchen, shed, bathroom or scrapping room, she is there right by my side demanding my undivided attention. And do you realise how hard it is to scrap/type with one hand whilst stroking the cat with the other?? LOL

I live in a large 4 bedroom house and my scraproom is the smallest bedroom. We ahve a tv and dvd player in our own bedroom and i often out the tv on and just listen.......the next thing i want for my craft room is a fridge for choc and drinks.....maybe after xmas

[~mable~]

my scrapping room is half of our double garage...its great just to escape for an hour or so. ds is in bed and dh is on the computer, so its my 'time out' space.
when we lived in swindon, i had the spare room...ive been lucky enough to have my own craft room....i dont want to share my space!!

Been pondering this one and as I keep babbling on to DH when he is watching tv and the girlie wirlies are in bed I don't think I am missed at all

No definately not lonely as I share the room with my 2 house bunnies Billy and Molly who are 5.5 kilos and 9 respectively so when you have one of those as a footwarmer, or trying to lie to you that they didn't get dinner etc. Also although a large massionette hubbie is here almost 24 hours a day, so never alone.
However I LOVE having all my stash within arms reach, having spent 7 months using the dining table and just what was in my trolley, I couldn't go back again.
