I have always loved making paper crafts! So several years ago,
I decided it was time I did some organizing of my paper and supplies.
Here is what works for me!
Card Stock Filing System
I bought organizing folders and made a folder for each color. I stayed with the basic colors and categorized all colors together. Example: Orange: Orange, Peach, Flesh color, etc would all be grouped in one. It is also great when there is a sale on paper you can easily look at your colors and see which one you are low on.
Scrapbook Paper Filing System
I bought sheet protectors and put the paper inside a 3 ring binder. It is easy to store on a shelf. It is so easy to quickly look the book and see what paper I have for a project. I have not gotten there yet, but you could also put them in themes or colors and put tabs on the side to be more organized.
Die-cuts, stickers and Paper Embellishments Filing System
This is the same concept as organizing card stock. I made categories for my die-cuts, stickers and paper embellishments. In the example this is my numbers and letters folder. I have several different categories including holidays, baby, frames, sports etc.
Scrap Paper Filing System
I am one of those crazy ladies who tries to use all of her scraps. I use the same system as the card stock. I do have a folder at the back which is TO FILE!!! Sometimes I am really good at organizing as I go and sometimes it just takes me a while to put my scraps in order but I am trying!!!! I put pattern paper and card stock in the same color. It just works for me!!!!
What organizing system works for you?
