Sequin Organization

Hi.  I am still working on organizing my scrap room 
and I thought I would share what I'm using for sequin storage.




I found the individual containers at Michaels in the jewelry section 
and the acrylic organizer at Muji.com.  
(I waited for it to go on sale and got it at 50% off)

It has 5 drawers and each drawer can hold 24 individual containers. 
(It can hold a total of 120 containers)

It's approx. 10" long x 6.5" high.





Imagine That - The ScrapRoom Kit Club

HELLO and welcome to April!

It's time to reveal my first layout from this month's 
"Flavors of the Month" kit at the The ScrapRoom


This page features the "ImagineThat" collection by Echo Park.






Subscribers to the "Flavors of the Month" kit receive a box with 
four individual layout kits.  

The kit contains enough paper and embellishments to complete 
at least eight 12x12 scrapbook pages.

You also get "Recipe Cards" which are step-by-step instructions 
(with measurements) to create four double page layouts.

*************************

It's a great way to get a sample of the newest scrapbooking collections 
delivered right to your door every month.

Bonus: It also comes with a sample of gourmet coffee. Yay!

Here is this month's kit:

Embellishment Storage and Organization by Color

I've spent the last couple of days organizing my embellishments and thought I would share my system and some pictures. 

Themed Embellishments:
My themed embellishments (such as holidays, summer, beach, etc..) stay together.  I have small baskets for each one.

New Paper Collections:
Whenever I get a new paper collection, those embellishments stay together until I have used up most of the paper.

Stored by Type:
Washi, Ribbon, Sequins, Enamel Dots, Bling

Stored by Color:
After I've used up most of the papers in a collection or kit, I divide up the leftover stickers and ephemera and organize them by color. 

I also add any general non-themed supplies to the color drawers.

Each color drawer is then divided up into categories such as large pieces for layering, small/medium pieces, flowers, tags, labels, word stickers, flair, brads, etc...


The small boxes were made by:
1.  Cutting off the bottom of cereal and cracker boxes.  
2.  Some were made from white cardstock.
3.  The grey boxes are drawer dividers from Ikea. (I don't think they sell them anymore)
