I have a slight obsession with scrapbook paper. There are so many lovely designs, and I cannot help but pick up a pad (or two) when I go to Michaels, Joann’s or my new favorite, Tuesday Morning. However, I am not very good about using my paper up. I always find myself wanting to “save” my favorite papers for a special project, not just for something that will be thrown away. I have also been in an organizing mood, so here is a project that helps you use your scrapbook paper and organize at the same time!
I started with the $5 Antonius clear organizer from Ikea. Inspired by this blog post from I Heart Organizing, I made a “liner” from scrapbook paper for each section or the organizer. I decided to go one step further, and laminated each liner for extra durability. Now I can look at some of my favorite paper designs everyday, instead of letting them sit unused in a drawer.
Are you good about using up your scrapbook paper? Have you been tackling any organization projects?
