Featured Scrapbook Product of the Week: Scrapbook Paper Tower

One thing to consider is whether we are storing are photo CDs/DVDs properly. I discover these Corrosion Intercept CD Album Refill Pages that extends the life of your CDs from 40 years up to 120 years! Talk about inter-generational storage!

Corrosion Intercept CD Album Refill Pages

CD/DVD’s have a life expectancy of 2 to 20 years. With corrosion intercept CD album refill pages the life can be extended from 40 to 120 years. The intercept plastic acts as a barrier to the atmospheric gases that cause corrosion and tarnish, and that in turn causes the aluminum layer on the surface to break down. Corrosion intercept traps the gases and permanently neutralizes them. Intercept also is designed to protect from the dangers of static electricity. Holds 8. Set of 5.

Exposures Online sells these for $10.95 per set.

I’m totally digging this innovative way to store your papers — why not a shoe rack bundled in a sturdy container of course!

Using Shoe Rack to organize Scrapbook Paper

Scrapbook Lifetips show you how:

How can you neatly and effectively organize these kits? The best way to organize the scrapbooking kits is to make sure you keep all the contents together. Scrapbook kits come with coordinating papers and accessories so you should keep it all together so you have a complete kit when you are ready to assemble your pages. Here are some suggestions for organizing your kits:

* Pizza boxes. Large pizza boxes are the perfect size for 12 x 12 kits and smaller. You can easily stack the boxes and you may be able to get them from you local pizza restaurant for free or at minimal cost.

* File Drawers. You can organize your kits by filing them into categories. Use scrapbook file drawers like Crop and Store storage files and cubes. These will keep your kits organized and in one place so they are easily accessible when you are ready to start scrapping.

* Binders. Storing the scrapbooking kits in their original plastic bags in binders can also be another way to keep them organized. If you do choose that method, make sure you are storing your binders upright on a shelf so you are not damaging the kits contents.

What about you? How do you organize your scrapbook club kits or just your papers and embellishments in general?

Organizing Scrapbook Club Kits

Well, I’ve always stored it in the baskets pictured here, but it wasn’t always so organized. I used to throw everything in together: it was a beautiful mess. Inspired by a link on Wendy Smedley’s blog, I reorganized my ribbon onto these cards. Using a cutting mat and rotary cutter, I cut cardboard pieces to fit inside my baskets; then I covered them with kraft packaging paper. I sorted my ribbons by manufacturer, wrapped them around cards, and secured them with pins. Voila! A system that allows me to see every ribbon at the same time, making it super-easy to find a match for any project.

I don’t always have time to sort new ribbon right away, so I hang unorganized ribbon from a clip on my project room wall this is another fun way to enjoy my ribbon even when I’m not using it. Editorial board member Elisha Snow stores all of her ribbon this way. She purchased this cute clip system from Pottery Barn. I like it because it’s very open and visual, she says. I don’t have to rummage through anything to find the ribbon I want. I also like that the clips are removable, so it’s easy to add and take away ribbon.

If you prefer to organize by color, then storing your ribbon in jars may be the best option for you. Editorial board member Rebecca Cooper uses this system. I really like my glass-jar system, because I can see what I’ve got, she says. I don�t have to go digging through all my ribbon to find the right piece for a certain project. I just grab the color jar I need, turn it around, and have a quick glance around to see if anything catches my eye.
