How I Organize My Scrapbook Paper Pads & Journaling Cards

[@sharoncooper9593]

All your ideas were so practical and inexpensive - thus solving a on-going problem of how to store and organize our voluminous hoard of 12x12 card stock. You solved ALL these problems brilliantly! Thank you!

[@LifeDIYJosie]

Thank you so much for your kind words, Sharon! I really appreciate you 😘💕

[@gardeninggrandma5247]

Using the Dollar Tree clear chopping mats is brilliant!! I was looking for a solution for my scrapbooking paper. Thank you!!

[@badmammajamma8682]

This is absolutely the very best way to store your scrapbook paper !! I have tried EVERYTHING and this absolutely worked the best !! When I get ready to scrap and can go through my boxes and see every scrapbook paper I have. And because I always "step out the box" so to speak, I added something else to your AWESOME idea. I cut a 12x12 cardboard from a box (you can purchase 12x12 cardboard from Amazon) placed one piece of cardboard between every 2 or 3 books, attached 3 envelopes (small, medium and large)to that cardboard with a bit of glue,and that's where I store my scraps from those 2or 3 books. Works great for me !! THANK YOU!!

[@LifeDIYJosie]

You're welcome Bad Mamma Jamma! Glad you love this idea as much as I! Wow, great tip on where to put the scraps. I put them in a file folder system and the smaller ones in trinket boxes, but yours sounds better. It allows you to put them close to the source! Love ideas like that. Thanks for the tip. I might just do that!!! I love it when I have a meeting of the minds with fellow crafters. Hope you have a wonderful day! TFW, hugs ~ Josie :)

[@LisaMendezlimedeals]

omg, what a great idea!! I have problems thinking outside the box, so it's always nice when I get great ideas from someone, like THIS! Thank you Bad Mamma!

[@badmammajamma8682]

I know it’s been awhile but I had to add me additional note to this fantastic way to store scrapbook paper. Add 12 x 12 vinyl record storage folders! You can get 100 of them from Amazon for $10.00 and they are clear! I place my scraps in them and in front of the books I use. Love it !!!!

[@tanyagolden1470]

Excellent idea, thank you!!!

[@DonnaMcBroomTheriot]

What an ingenious idea! Makes so much sense!

[@LifeDIYJosie]

Thanks! I know right?! Have a wonderful week. TFW, hugs ~ Josie :)

[@shereebrown4064]

I took your advice and reorganized my scrapbook paper and other papers as you have done. I had it stacked up before and, like you said, I had to take it all out to get to the bottom. I redid it last weekend and it is wonderful. I have gone to look for paper a couple of time since I reorganized and I love it. It is so quick now to find what I am looking for. I used a pretty collapsible container I already had them in, but I like your box idea also because my main goal is to repurpose and not throw away usable items. I love to organize and am always keeping my mind open for new ideas.

[@LifeDIYJosie]

Oh wow, thanks so much for a wonderful feedback on how you used this idea Sheree! I am so glad that it is now easier for you to find your paper pads! Much easier and more convenient, right? I am sure you're going to enjoy it for a long time. Thanks for letting me know. I love knowing how viewers use my ideas! TFW and enjoy your week! Hugs~ Josie :)

[@ckfoxxer]

Great idea to store the pads upside down! 😊

[@LifeDIYJosie]

Thanks, Amy! Glad you like this idea too! Hugs~ Josie 😘

[@WAlycia]

Best idea I’ve seen yet on how to organize my many 12x12 paper pads. I have the plastic cases, but I have to lift them to find what I’m looking for, hard on my back. Thank you!

[@LifeDIYJosie]

I am glad that you like this idea bwilhelmena. This idea came about for same reason-- saving my back! lol. TFW, hugs~ Josie :)

[@shelleyshanahan8304]

You are one smart girl. Thanks for the ideas

[@LifeDIYJosie]

You're welcome Shelley. Thanks for the kind words. Hugs :)

[@jenniferahlstrom590]

what a great idea! so simple, to store the paper pads upside down so you can flip through the papers without taking the entire pad out of the box. I have a (growing) collection of those paper pads; I think I'm going to have to save a copy paper box to store them. I am a visual crafter and also store my things in Iris containers, but keeping paper in those doesn't really work; I agree. now I'm off to watch more of your videos! thanks!!

[@LifeDIYJosie]

Hi Jennifer, glad to know I am not alone in thinking those scrapbook cases don't do well for visual crafters ! They are excellent cases when it comes to durability. I do believe they will work in a huge space and if one is very patient in categorizing each pad to go to each box. For example, all pink paper pads will go to one case, all blue ones to the next, etc. However, that will be time consuming and very expensive, considering there are a ton of colors! Not to mention, designs. I just thought the box is more practical, functional, and easier on the budget. Thanks for watching and commenting. I do appreciate also that you will watch my other videos. Have a wonderful day. Hugs :)

[@chauchettagreen5498]

Josie you have another great idea here. It all looks good. and is very practical and easy to do once you have all if your cutting and sorting done. Nicely done.I will use this idea when ever I get my room in order. I too hate having my paper pads. Stacked up so I can't see them. Thank you for the inspiration. I always get a little of it when I watch your videos. Blessings my friend! Much love and a happy day coming to you.🌞🌌⭐🌈 Chauchetta

Thanks Lynn. I replied to your other comment about the measurement and link to Amazon. That is for a pack of 20, so it comes down to $2.50 per piece. Check Costco too. My husband bought them there.

I did something similar with my 6x6 paper pads, but put them in a cute wooden tray that I have right on my work table - easy to reach for. Only thing I didn't do yet is put dividers in. Love the idea for the 12x12's as I have one of those rolling carts for paper, but it's already full and I need that more for my die cuts and such. Not sure what to use the journaling cards for so would have to give that more thought before I separate them from the paper pads. Thanks for sharing! Love your crafty ideas! :-)

[@LifeDIYJosie]

[@colleenknudsen9590]

I uses milk crates from Walmart. 5 $ each. Their square box was easier for me to manage and had a good handle on side. The secret was definitely putting the paper in upside down.I keep three boxes on top of a side dresser so it’s easy to pursue them to find what you need. The dividers will be perfect for me and a great idea.

[@LifeDIYJosie]

Yes, those milk crates are more durable. Walmart was not selling them in the colors I like back then when I made this video. Also, the price now went down...around $3.23 I think. Yes, upside down is the way to go for paper pads. Thanks for watching and for your input! Enjoy your day! Hugs ~ Josie :)
