if you use 12 x 12 paper......

Today at Target, I bought some "itso" large fabric bins ($8.99 each) to use in my craft room.

Well, -- A GREAT SURPRISE!! I bought them because they are sturdy and I wanted them to just store stuff in.

When I got home, I found out they are 13.5" square and will hold all of my 12 x 12" items -- paper, clear 12 x 12" file envelopes, etc.

So if you use 12 x 12 inch items and need a super duper place to keep them, I highly recommend these bins.

If you want to see a picture, you can lok on the Target website. I got the large and they were $8.99 each. They had solid colors: brown, beige, green, red, navy, etc. They also have a cut out handle so it's easy to carry around or take off the shelf.

Hope that helps someone.

i'm going to Target this week! thank you for the tip, right now i have my current project paper standing in a metal bin but it's not a great fit.

my mind is racing now that I know these bins will be a great fit for my supplies.

I think I am going to get one more strictly to use for traveling to a friend's house -- we have several girls in my neighborhood who scrap and we're always having a last minute scrap afternoon. On Sunday, one of them called and said I'm scrapping......come on over.

It's not heavy and since it has cut out handles, it will be easy to carry my things in.

Yes, who knew $9 could make me so happy........

Ack!! I was just there! Guess I need to go back, I wonder if they fit in the Ikea bookcase I want.
I think I'll pick one up and take it to Ikea with me this week.

Thanks for the tip!
