Organizing My Craft Supplies - Paper Storage
Although we have a spare bedroom upstairs, I prefer to keep my craft area in a corner of our laundry room. The reality for me is that if I stored everything away upstairs in a closed off room, I'd never use it. With it down here beside the kitchen, I have quicker and easier access to it. I can have the machines cutting while I'm cooking, or folding laundry, and I can walk out to work at my desk for a few minutes without feeling like I have shut myself off away from my husband. It's what works for me - and that's the key, figuring out what works for you. There is no one answer, we all work differently!

In this small space, I have an old office armoire that I picked up at a thrift store. It holds two cricut machines, our printer, & all of my paper and vinyl. Baskets on top hold more supplies. I also have a desk and dresser in this area, and a closet where more supplies are stored - but the bulk of what I use is accessible right here, beside the ironing board, which is convenient not only for dropping all sorts of odds and ends as we walk through the back door, but also for htv projects, once I clear it off. :-)
The bulk of my 12x12 paper is in cardboard holders. I do keep one clear 12x12 box of "seasonal paper", that I rotate out. So right now I have spring and summer papers in the cardboard storage, and fall and winter [Christmas] are in a clear 12x12 box. Sometime around late August/early September, I'll switch those.

If you have followed this page for awhile, you have probably seen a lot of my 4 year old assistant. He's been crafting with me since he could sit upright by himself, and I design a lot of projects specifically for him, his younger brother, and his cousins [who currently live in England]
