How to Organize Scrapbook paper

This video provides information on how to organize your scrapbooking paper, especially if you have a lot. I created this because as I looked online I was only able to find info on organizing a smaller amount of papers. I hope this will help you.

Since I have a ton of embellishments and supplies to certain topics I put them together in the blue bins at the end of the video. The topics I have in those are:
Holiday & Season spring/summer
Holiday & Season fall/winter
Vacation tropical
Vacation great outdoors
Completed
In progress
Pets
Wedding
Celebration
Family & Friends

Different people buy different stuff, so it's up to you to figure out how you want to breakout your papers.

Some ideas on categories in my racks is:
-Rack 1 Rustic (cowboy)
Vintage (old fashion)
Retro (brown/oranges)
60s/70s/80s
next box Blue flowers
Pink flowers
Flowers/birds,gardening

This was the begining of my room organization so I didn't have everything setup ;) Happy Scrappin

That thing is hideous. I own one and they dont stay together. I looked at it and it fall apart. I finally beat the monster of a storage system. I pulled out the gorilla glue and glued the knobs together. I then stuck it in a recycled stereo cabinet when stereos were huge.

@zannidoo Really? I haven't had any issues. I used a rubber mallet to make sure it clicked all the way in. Probably not a bad idea to glue it if you know you will never want to change the shapes. Personally I never wheel mine around either.

Hi from Spain! do you work as crafter or scrapbooker or is just a hobby? like your video

[tafkaprincess]

@SWEETBUNDT It's just a hobby. Thanks glad you liked the video. How long have you been scrappin?

[tafkaprincess]

@tafkaprincess Hi, great to hear from you. I have been scrappin for about 20 years actually. Back when it was just a few stickers, some ruffle scissors and glue sticks. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

[tafkaprincess]

@SWEETBUNDT I enjoy all crafts and scrapbooking. How about you?

Organization is a good thing but light coming into the storage rack will fade the colors over time.Best to get enclosed holders like hanging files to prevent against fading.

Love the idea as this is how I organize my paper except in a large tote and in notebooks. You said in the front of your video that you made this for scrappers with lots of paper like you, LOL! I had to laugh, because you hardly have any compared to tons of scrappers I know including myself. I have been scrapping for about 12 years and accumulated at least 10 times the amount you show in the video. Most of it is organized accept my stacks, don't know how to do them yet. Thanks for the tips.
