I'm one of those crafters that hates throwing away even the smallest bit of paper. I love going back and making cards from leftover paper from previous projects. Eventually I had to find a storage solution.
I purchased a few file folders, and a file tote. I have everything organized by color. For the hard to categorize, I have a 'multi color' folder.
It just works for me!

That's a cute idea! I have trouble throwing scraps away too because I'm so cheap...um, frugal.

ReplyDeletethat's a great idea - I'm going to show my wife!
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing! Isn't it great?!
ReplyDeleteI keep meaning to do this, but everything is still in a pill all over my desk :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT! And it gives you incentive to make scrap paper works of art when the folders get too full!
ReplyDeleteNot only an incentive, but easy to find what you are looking for!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by! I love this idea! I am so going to do this. I can't stand throwing away pieces of paper and I've been trying to come up with a good storage method. I'm going to add you to my blogroll. Stop by again soon!
ReplyDeleteI keep ALL my scraps too. I'm so glad you shared photos of your system. This is a great way to organize them!
