It's a quickie and an update!

OK, you guys have motivated me like crazy to get my craft room done!  One thing you need to know about me (if you didn't already) is I don't sit around too long and wait (in other words...I'm impatient....or I like to call it motivated!)  So, Adam gave me the "green light" on Saturday, I posed the questions, searched for answers, quick trip to IKEA on Monday, built and moved Monday/Tuesday, paint on Tuesday and I can say it's ALMOST DONE!!!  I can't wait to share with you....but I have to get a few finishing details first:)  I know, not very nice!  I'm still looking for a few ideas if you have any on paper storage!  I bought the JetMax cubes with the filing drawers from Michaels (40% off plus a 25% off your entire order....WOW!) BUT it only comes with four files and of course they don't sell them AND they are not a standard size:(  Any suggestions?  I LOVE my hanging files for paper but Adam says my milk crates don't look "pretty".  

Ok, onto why you really stopped by....some stamping!  This card came together SUPER fast.  I wanted to showcase the beautiful Strength and Hope stamp set in another combination (other than the five I shared a week or so ago:)  This one is River Rock and Very Vanilla paired with the NEW DSP that you can earn FREE!!!!  Would you like to learn how?  If so, fire me off an email and I'll let you know:)  Alrighty, I must head off to bed....it's 1:36 in the morning....the last wall will have to wait:)  Thanks for stopping by today!

Take care,

Heather

Michaels does sell the hanging folders for their cubes. They have them at my store (in Winnipeg). Can they be ordered for you? or maybe online?

It is a great product line, not sure what shipping would cost though! I have a paper shelf and it is awesome.

Hi Heathe,

Staples has some great storage for paper you can view on line. One is called - Storex 12 Compartment Literature Organizer, it will only hold 8.5 x 11 so you would still need something for 12 x 12. They may have different sizes in the store.

I bought several of the wire cube kits and made shelves inside each one using plastic ties. I have 6 shelves inside each cube and store the paper by colours.
I have 2 floor to ceiling racks.

I love my white paper racks that I bought like the stores have. They are worth every penny. I can stack both my 8 1/2 x 11 and 12 x 12 on the same shelf. I used to stack them in different places and now I know exactly how much paper I have. I too purchased mine second hand. Love them!!!

I bought the paper racks from a craft store that was going out of business. They are WONDERFUL. They are so much nicer than the tubs and organizers I used to use. Here's something similar from Amazon. It's a little pricey but from my experience, it's worth it's weight in gold.

If you do love your hanging files, I purchased my clear hanging file boxes at Walmart.They have blue tops on them but I never have the tops on. Free paper, what's up?

somewhere - I bought a storage tower that holds these removable clear cases that hold the 12x12 pages. Might have been Michaels with a 40% off coupon :) I can check today. Can't believe you went to Ikea without me again. :( Next it will be Winter Wheat.

What about a puzzle shelf? You now the shelves you buy to store kids' puzzles. I know it would be hard to find one to fit 12 by 12 paper, but it would work for letter size paper. Anyway who, have fun with your room :)

lovely card (as usual).

What I've done for cardstock, is got a magazine sorter from Grand & Toy (when we still got a sweet discount through work) and have that sitting beside my desk for easy access. It only holds letter size paper though... mine is similar to this
