3. This week the girls have their dance recital. How does 6 shows in 4 days sound? I am mom who is the makeup artist/ hair stylist/ taxi / caterer to 3 beautiful girls. I count it a blessing to be able to do this. I just don't like the business so much!

Reading The Organized and Inspired Scrapbooker was instrumental for me in getting my scrapbook room to work for me. I discovered how I like to create, what style of storage worked for me (open and visible) and how organizing some things by project (like rubber stamping and painting) and some things by catagory (embellishments) and some things by manufacturer (patterned paper) was the perfect answer for me. I highly recommend the book and its workbook style questions that help you find your style.

With embillishements I have found organising them as well as alphabet chipboard / stickers all by colour and storing in plastic contrainers/work well. Paper is seperate and that I sort by color as well with cardstock and PP together...works for me but lots of people do it different. I think teh secret is to look at how you scrap, then put a system together that follows your process.
Have a great day
Linda

hey Wilna!
I love to me the colours, so my embellies are in large glass (nescafe) jars. Paper scraps in those A4 envelopes (one for each rainbow colour)- the see-thru plastic ones, and pp in 12x12 suitcases with divisions - also by colour. AND that's not to say, it's tidy!!!

Enjoy the DANCE!!!

Just about any size bucket, or basket. I'm always looking for them too!

This past fall I found a clear canister set. There were three in the set and they only cost me $1.99 each. So in them I store my extra ribbon pieces separated into the following Blue/Green/Purple, Red/Yellow/Orange, and White/Black/Brown.

Accessories are separated by color(best thing I ever did) and chipboard by letter.

No hints here as my stuff is crammed in a cabinet and seeping out of my crop bags into a cornerof my living room! Love seeing all the suggestions though -hope to move it all at some point.

Have fun (to everyone!) at the dance shows. Right now we've something softball daily - but it's not all day :).
