I have had this Kaisercraft craft caddy in my stash for close on 12 months (maybe more). I did make a start on it many months ago, but I didn't get very far. After receiving my "Peoples Choice" prize pack from Scrapbooking Memories and Kaisercraft - which included a LOT of other Kaisercraft craft storage/OTP goodies.....I thought I'd best get this one finished first before cracking into my new goodies! ( I will do a future post to show the prizes I received soon....all I can say is that I'm blown away at how much there is! )
So anyways....this is the craft caddy in it's raw state.
And it does require some putting it together....it comes in like a flat pack type thing. And the best bit I like, is that it swivels around....see the circular bit at the bottom? Well, it has like a lazy susan type thing that you fit underneath to make it swivel! so cool :)
And here is it after I painted, papered & inked....without any embellishments....
The papers I used are from the Kaisercraft "These Days" collection....which I bought at the same time as the caddy, with their colours in mind to fit in with my scrap room.
And here it is after I embellished, showing all 4 sides.......
I've used lots of Kaisercraft embellishments from a few different collections.....along with Prima & Manor House Creations flowers, and some 2crafty chipboard
Here are a few close ups....
Using 2 of the 2crafty Lace Squares - above and below
2crafty Damask painted in a mixture of acrylic paints with a button popped on top.
I am so pleased with how this has turned out....AND even more pleased that I've finally got it finished! It was a lot of fun to put it all together & embellish, so I'm really looking foward to now playing with the 3 craft storage items that were in my prize pack :) - lets just hope that they don't take me 12 months to complete! LOL
Have a great day peoples :) xx

What fun and it looks soooo good!! I have discovered, after forcing myself to ddo some OTP projects that they are so much simpler than I thought yet pack such a WOW punch! Your drawers look amazing and of course being functional too is all the better...
Looks super Linda, glad you're making use of your peoples choice prize. :)
Congratulations on your win! So well deserved. Just LOVE what you have done to this caddy! I don't normally do OTP projects but this is really enticing me! Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow! It looks fantastic Linda! I have several OTP pieces that I've purchased over the years and it's still in it's packaging. You might just have inspired me to tackle on of them. :) xx
