#collageart #beginnercollage #paperorganization
I found a new way to organize and store ALL my collage paper. This paper storage system has led to unexpected benefits for my collage art process AND for the success of the final art piece. If you are a paper lover (hoarder?) like me, you might want to try this paper organization method too!

I organize by color and keep in an envelope all speciality paper for that color , keep both in my 12x 12 bin. Definitely made my craft sessions smoother, I also keep a rolling cart with all my tools, made it habit to always put them back, so I’m not constantly searching for them under all my paper , paints and dies, lol. TFS

[@colorfulcollage]

I love that idea! I’m always searching for a tool on my desk as I work.

[@wendibrandner7583]

I always start my creative time by organizing something....very calming ❤❤ love your channel and your artwork!

[@colorfulcollage]

❤️

[@ArtyAntics]

I put my papers/supplies by colour 10 years ago and it turbo charged my art process. 💯% recommend 😊

[@colorfulcollage]

Awesome!

[@freezo244]

I finally sorted my papers by color a few months ago. I have a box for each: red, blue, yellow, white, and black. So simple and efficient.

[@colorfulcollage]

I’m happy with my decision too.

[@Creativeassemblages]

Thanks for this idea relating to organizing colors. I also do this with my paint colors. Organize colors of paint in bins and then it is so easy to find the color that I need. Yes, thanks for another great video with wonderful suggestions.

[@colorfulcollage]

That's a great idea!

[@Anatravers]

I Organize my paper by type: card, handmad, dyed paper, etc. But I will try to do it by colour and if it really makes a difference I will let you know, because it can be one more voice to help others travel more freely throughout their heaven /hell piles of papers!😊🎉

[@colorfulcollage]

😂 We paper lovers need each other’s support!

[@robbiekearsley9158]

Always on the lookout for ways to deal with ALL the papers! This was great! Even though we work differently (I'm a collage artist who uses magazine images), I can see something like this working for me, by having envelopes for portraits, landscapes, and categories of objects like clocks, cameras, etc. Are you using closing envelopes or open ones? Also, love the storage cases 😍😍😍

[@colorfulcollage]

I love the this idea for magazine images. The envelopes are open, which is partly why I bought the bins. They also slide off each other so the bins contain them nicely.

[@brendamerchant7921]

What to put in the empty drawer? Paper, of course 😅

[@colorfulcollage]

Of course!!! 😂

[@PhoebesWorldProductions]

that's great. 😃👍

[@colorfulcollage]

Thanks 👍

[@PhoebesWorldProductions]

You're welcome.

[@janellemoore6082]

Hi Lisa. Thank you for your wonderfully informative videos. I'm learning so much as a budding collage artist and would love to know the name of the color sample book you show at the 1 minute mark.

[@colorfulcollage]

The book is linked in the description- The Complete Color Harmony. 😊

[@Princess_karen]

Funny you said you have a lot of paper, I have book shelves full of paper. I am a true paper addict

[@colorfulcollage]

Takes one to know one! 😂❤️

[@Princess_karen]

@@colorfulcollage lol, sisters in paper hoarding.

[@debs_SoggyBottom]

Hi, i wonder if you could give me the size of the storage boxes you use please? They look like just what i need for my papers. Thanks x

[@colorfulcollage]

15.3 x 14 x 3.5 inches

[@marywarren1209]

Hmmmm! I do have all my scraps by color but then...cardstock, metallic, sparkles, etc are not! Hmmm!

[@colorfulcollage]

Did you make any decisions?

[@debiadams3803]

Did you hear angels and heavenly choirs??? 😊

[@colorfulcollage]

Was that what the sound was?! 😂

[@susanbrisson6373]

What about paper that is more than one color?

[@colorfulcollage]

Good question. I put them with the most dominant color or with the color I thought it looks nicest when compared side by side.
