I'm back to share that Megan Hoeppner's latest edition of Creative Spaces Volume 2 from Creating Keepsake is now available! This magazine couldn't come at a better time as for the past 2 weeks I've been trying to re-organize my scrapping storage room (it's pretty much where I hide all my scrapbook supplies as to not clutter the living room too much) and most importantly purge!
I've had the opportunity to share my scrapping area in the first volume and can't wait to get a hold of the second volume, love seeing everyone's scrapping space. Also there's tons of ideas and fun ways to store all those scrapping supplies and get those must have - I need that turquoise cart in the corner there from Ikea! Plus as I'm re-organizing my scrapping area at the moment, any ideas are welcome. Found a few interesting ones on Pinterest that would definitely help me (and within my budget *wink*)
ReUse! = a great way to label the different shelves but also can easily be changed anytime
ReCycle! = got love this idea and plus got tons of boxes that can be put to good use
ReMind! = yeap, I should have this sitting on my table, not only would it act as a awesome container but also a reminder that only buy what you really really really need. do not hoard! LOL
Chalkboard idea, Re-use those boxes, Weigh them in
Need more ideas and interested in taking a peak at what's in the new issue --> check out the details HERE. Also don't forget to grab your copy HERE and if you haven't gotten the first issue yet, just head on over HERE.

I love storing all the small embellishments - buttons, washi tapes, random finds into marson jars bought from Ikea! Love that they are transparent so I can easily spot them! As for scrapbook shopping, I think 95% of scrappers face the same problem! HAHA!:P Prob just trying our best to make do with whatever we have! I personally find that not browsing through CHA catalogues or product updates can help prevent me from spending too much! HAHA! Hope these helps! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOh no---am I the dreaded first comment!? LOL
ReplyDeleteLove the scale! I keep my washi tape in a large red colander. I love digging through it to see what tapes I have--though I am outgrowing it..
I have my buttons sorted by color--except OA and BG--those are kept together. Anyway, I store them in the Starbucks coffee drink bottles. My sister, bil and dh drank them so I could have the bottles! LOL (I don't like coffee) I removed the labels and they sit nicely in one side of my scrapbook hutch.
self-control? I really need to find some! I store some small supplies in recycled food jars, washi tapes in a tube hung on the wall and paints, sprays in stackable containers so I can pile them up. I wish I had more storage space !

My biggest tip for the organization system I have is Ikea, haha. They have so many handy storage units, carts and baskets.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!
I'm in the process of renovating my craft room! And I'm stuck! lol I really need some ideas and this magazine always has so much inspiration and fantastic ideas!
ReplyDeleteI use a towel rack from IKEA to display my punches, and I use them so much more now that they are out in plain sight! I also stuck all my stick pins in a cork and put them in a clear glass embellishment jar - no risk of being poked, and I can see them all when I need to choose the perfect one for a layout!
ReplyDeleteI love using little embellishment bags for wood veneers! I'm getting better at self control again, but no tips, ha!
ReplyDeleteI am trying to pay off bills this year, so self control is a must!! I am trying to use what supplies I have before buying new ones. It is hard when so many cute things are comming out!!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely loved the first edition and can hardly wait for the second!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the organization and storage tips! This sounds like a GREAT read, thank you for the chance to win! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm constantly packing and reorganizing my scrap space. I find clear containers are the best way to keep thing neat and yet be able to find things when I need them. The mag has great ideas!
ReplyDeleteThe best tip I have is to organize by color. I still have trouble with what to do with all my scraps.

I try to have specific projects in mind when I go shopping to help me avoid buying EVERYTHING!! It doesn't always work but it helps to control the amount of stuff I bring into my scraproom! Thanks for the chance to win! :)
ReplyDeleteMy scrap space definitely looks like it needs some organizing and I'm sure this would be so much help! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Piradee! My fav organisation tools are ziploc bags and pizza boxes. The former are so handy for grouping similar flat objects (think paper scraps and journalling spots) and the latter works beautifully for dimentional objects like blooms. Can't do without them! Oh yes, I'm eyeing that lovely turquoise cart too! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
ReplyDeleteI organize my paper by theme, solids & patterns, & textures. I could definitely use some help though.
ReplyDeleteOh, why don't we have turquoise carts in our ikea!
ReplyDeleteI use small containers for supplies and clear bags for paper, but it's not the best solution - I tend to forget what I have.
storing supplies: i use a lot of containers. i think my best tip for small loose embellishments is a fishing tackle box!
ReplyDeleteself-control: go shopping with my boyfriend LOL!
Great idea for recycling the boxes - I must try something similar! I've found it much easier to use my stamps now that I have them out and visible on a shelf near my desk. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI have a tool peg board that I use for ribbon and products that have a "hanger" that I can hang up on my board. It was a reject from my dad's shop and it worked perfectly for my space.
ReplyDeleteI hang all the stamps on a large O-ring, that way keeping them all together and close by...thanks for a chance of winning this great mag ♥
ReplyDeleteI use candy dishes to store buttons, brads, small things
ReplyDeleteI use a pegboard to hang tools and embellishments
ReplyDeleteI only take cash into a Scrapbook store then that is all I can spend :)
ReplyDeleteShopping either with my hubby or my 11 year old daughter help to keep my in check. They love to remind me about how much stuff I already have and do I really need more. :)
ReplyDeleteI love to hoard too. Hopefully the magzine can gives me more ideas and suggestion.
