[@sheriwoodie1828]

you inspire me to craft items that look good. i had brain surgery and your ideas make me think .

[@prokeyes]

I so enjoy your videos! Jennifer McGuire has a video on how to make your labels and not have the waste at the ends. TFS

[@vivsalittlebitcrafty4854]

Wish I'd known about this before I spent f-o-r-e-v-e-r covering cut down cardboard boxes for my paper stash !! Thumbs up from me 😀👍

[@queenofscraps]

Just made a single storage box for my small collection of embossing folders. They finally look tidy and easily accessible. Thanks for the clear instructions

[@elizabethdreier7582]

What a great idea! I've got a bunch of paper pads just laying around in drawers. This way, I can actually SEE what's there, and then USE them! Well done indeed!

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you, Elizabeth x

[@reneeforsell9622]

Just found your video. You are really good at making instructional video's. One of the best I have ever seen. Thank you so much.

[@lorraineharp1571]

Fabulous, now my papers will be on hand , instead of tucked away in a cupboard.. xx

[@marshaknatcal104]

This is a great box and like you said, easy to do, just takes a little time. I made just one and it fits all my 6x6 papers. If I do make another one, I probably won't attach them together. I can't see covering up the sides with pretty paper only to cover them up by gluing them together. ;-) Oh, and you can use the envelope punch board to make tabs for your dividers. Thanks for a great tutorial!!

[@scrappyLiz1]

How do you use the envelope punch board for the dividers?

[@lynnmartin7123]

This is great, I always said I didn’t want to use boxes but yours are very pretty and very functional, I love them, Thank you xx😀

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you Lynn x

[@rrunnr]

[@rollonmom]

You did an amazing job

[@reafriesen5618]

This is an amazing idea. I think I will be making some of these. Then my 6x6 papers will have a home. Tfs 👍😊

[@judyelispur5343]

just made this during quarentine - thanks for the easy tutorial from israel

[@catherinegrantham4423]

Wow, I have a fair few of 6x6 paper pads, and are all over mixed in, will be great to have in one place, Thankyou love, sending hugs from the UK, xxx

[@clotheslinecraftscaroline2446]

Wonderful idea

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you :)

[@verblu8507]

That is awesome! Great way to store 6x6 paper and paper paper pads! Thanks for sharing this! God bless!!

[@Cards4Cancer]

[@denisewoodley7785]

[@gaillockeyakathemessycraft658]

[@JoanOrloffDK]

Great storages box 😀 fantastic tutorial ❤ thanks for sharing

[@laurie7372]

How cute,🏵 I love making boxes. You could use a punch board for the tabs also. Great tutorial.

[@fastquilter600]

This is a great project for a rainy day. I am trying so hard to consolidate all of my stuff and get it into smaller spaces. This is the answer to my needs. Thanks SO MUCH for sharing.

[@bettyjohnson1365]

Great idea! Thank you for sharing with us.

[@pattyd3205]

Wow! love this, I am looking at new storage units. I might have a go making similar to fit on the shelves. It’s a brilliant idea, thank s for sharing. I am now "bashing" my corners rather than "squeezing" with pliers, much easier. Thank you again fo another wonderful Tutorial.

[@MixedUpCraft]

Your welcome, these will last so much longer than my cardboard storage and nicer then any shop brought stuff. Have fun making them :)

[@patriciawimbush835]

I just made this project. I really like having some where to put my 6x6 paper pads.

[@Елена-ь4п8и]

Очень хороший и очень подробный мастер-класс.Особенно мне очень понравилась идея формирования стыков - ОРИГИНАЛЬНО! Спасибо Вам и творческих успехов Вам в дальнейшем!!!

[@colleenpassardi]

Love this project!💜💜💜

[@bettyhall9777]

I love it, now I need to make me one for my paper. Thank you so much for sharing this. Hope you have a blessed evening ☺

[@patricgamb]

Oh love this storage box an your tutorial--love it-thank you for sharing this wonderful video-hugs

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you Patsy x

[@paulinecrosby7523]

Loved this! I try every card tutorial that you do and they mostly work great! I am going to try the bags next, I've just acquired a lot of designer wallpaper sample books so I can use plain card and stick that to the card. I used double sided sticky sheets as my dbl sided tape was thin, and it worked very well, saved lots of time. I have also made an 8 x 8 one as well, a bit unwieldly on the desk when assembling due to size but it worked brilliantly. I used the dbl sided sticky sheets again. I so look forward to your tutorials. Thank you for sharing. X

[@candicerimell2601]

Just last night I was sorting out my craft room and I have all of my 6 x 6 stacked, so I will make a couple of these today, thank you Sam. Also when I’m labelling I type a few at once just putting 3 spaces in between each one, it saves the tape.

[@beenadharmeshpithva1879]

So cute.papers are beautiful. I love it. thanks for sharing.💖U.

[@Shirley12B]

wonderful project. i have a book case with drawers that I can keep my 12x12 or 8x8 in but my 6x6 gets all beat up if I use one for them. i will certainly keep this video and make a few. thanks so much for sharing!!!!!

[@MixedUpCraft]

Same my 6 x 6 was just not working how I had it before, this is so much better and I can see it all really well. Glad you like it :) x

[@pinkmosquito22]

I'm going to make this and try to make an acetate box lid for it too, to keep the dust out!

[@sherina57]

♥ ♥ ♥ Great idea. Love the paper, it's so pretty. TFS.

[@elvahash5239]

Absolutely love this box. What a great idea. Thankyou

[@1jmass]

So easy and they look great. I thought of a few random things while I was watching this, and I thought I would share even though there is nothing new here. I always run my laminating through again after I cut around it just to be extra sure the edges are sealed, If I am making a bunch of labels, I simply do them all at the same time putting a few spaces between them. When I finish, I just cut them apart, and I only have wasted tape at the beginning and the end. If you want your base to be covered underneath, just attach the boxes to the back instead of the front. The boxes should cover the unpapered area, and since your corners have the protectors on them and they are so neatly done, it will be difficult to tell what you did. If you can tell some of the uncovered chipboard is going to be visible, simply cut your paper a little bigger.

[@lindastrandquist2429]

Love it. You could use to hold stamp envelopes as well

[@MixedUpCraft]

Yep definitely x

[@angelalittlewood4523]

I have just made this box. Mine wasn't perfect, but close enough for nobody else but me to notice. I can't believe how simple it was. Love it Sam. Have you ever made a desk storage for pens, rules, rubbers etc.,?

[@katrinahay6201]

Great tutorial...have a bunch of 6x6 and 8x8 so will be making these pretty soon...thanks

[@AutismJourney_BeKind]

Sam this is AMAZING!!! Wow. You are a genius 😀 what a beautiful way to store our 6x6 paper pads. Thank you SO much for sharing. I just love your storage and stationary projects 💕❤️

[@lindastephenson526]

[@oricle81]

How cute!!!! Love this! I don't have one of those tab dies, but I think my envelope punch board would work nicely! Thank you so much for sharing! :D

[@chrisflack2792]

Great project Sam, could you do a tutorial on a chip board box with a lid please? xx

[@MixedUpCraft]

Chris Flack, I will add your request to my list :) x

[@drgndrvr]

[@tenarawashington5778]

Hi Sam, I went to your blog but did not find the link to where to purchase the divider die cut. Can you provide me with the link to the divider tab? I love you tutorials! Continue to shine!

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hi Tenara. Thank you. You can contact me at [e-mail]. and I will be able to help you.

[@michellesmixedmediamadness]

I'll be making this over the weekend. Thanks! Great project.

[@paulahills9546]

This is a great idea, like everything you make! Do you know what the paper is that you used for the 6" x 6" box? I love the heart pattern! :) keep up the excellent work! 😁❤️😁

[@effianncards3982]

Gorgeous TFS xx

[@liatitzhakdesigns]

Hi, It's a gorgeous box. Maybe you can make a tutorial for a lid to this box or a box with a lid from chipboard? I wish you can. Thanks a lot, Liat Itzhak

[@ginamcveigh4663]

Think I will have to make a few of these also, so pretty, Sam where did you get your bone folder from please x

[@MixedUpCraft]

Gina McVeigh, I will find the link and get back to you x

[@ginamcveigh4663]

Thanks Hun x

[@rosaliedavila892]

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you, Rosalie, of course you can make it in any size you like :)

[@janeedwards2266]

Could you do that for stamps and dies sets

[@MixedUpCraft]

You can use them for anything Jane.

[@cppawley]

Sam I really like your projects but I would like to know where you get your corner pieces from. TFS

[@pamcanning8592]

I have just tried Amazon and I typed in 'metal corners for crafts' and a lot of choices came up.

[@catherinegrantham4423]

Did you use hot glue to hold the pompoms on love xx

[@MixedUpCraft]

Yes Catherine, a thin strip around the top edge :)

[@catherinegrantham4423]

Hy, finally made one after a lot of boo boo’s, lol, wasted a load of paper and got glue all over me, I am very much a newbie, and just so pleased with myself, you describe so well how to do, absolutely brilliant, xxx

[@BethCrafts]

What do you do with your scraps that are too big to throw away

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hi, Beth, I keep all my scraps in clear plastic sleeves, organised by colour. Check out my Craft Room Tour video as I show how I store my scraps in that :)

[@karenslater3611]

wow Sam great video I did try it but it DID NOT look like yours lol

[@MixedUpCraft]

Oh no, keep trying Karen :) x

[@DuluthTW]

Great!

[@lwilkinson85]

So sorry, but where's the product list? Great box by the way!

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hi Laura, the direct blog link is just below the tutorial in the video description box :)

[@patriciascoble9680]

Love the storage, but first I need the room.

[@BethCrafts]

Great way to tear off the tape!

[@christinelazar62]

Do you have one for 8x8

[@MixedUpCraft]

No, I didn't have that many 8 x 8 papers but I do now, so maybe I will look at doing one. :)

[@joannetoone9182]

i loveeeee this sam I need a 12x12 now would love if you could give me any ideas thank you sam huggles XX

[@MixedUpCraft]

I have strong plastic boxes for my 12 x 12 as they are so heavy. You would need A3 chipboard as you would need your front and back to be 12.1/4 by whatever height you wanted. Your sides are up to you but I would go to thin else it could topple over. Its hard to make storage for 12 x 12 paper packs due to their weight. :)

[@joannetoone9182]

thank you sam yeh got mine in plastic boxes I have 27 12x12 pads because of trimcraft lol I keep saying I'm going to cut a few to 8x8 or 6x6 and when I get the pads out I say to myself na i will leave it lol Xx
