Paper/sticker rack?

[pumba's mom]

What do you use to hold all of your paper and stickers? I can't seem to find 12 X 12 racks. Any ideas?

I use the CM file mates to store all of mine, but I don't use 12 x 12 paper usually. When I do I just keep them in a plastic envelope. For stickers I have an accessory binder. It is wonderful.

For stickers I use the sticker binder by Crop in Style, its perfect, you can buy pages with the appropriate sizes of slots for the stickers you have. I have mine divided into sections (baby, Christmas, vacation, sports, childhood etc.). For paper I bought the 12x12 paper shelves from my scrapbook store when it closed, but they do have a website that you can buy them from --they are around $100....I think there is an ad usually in the back of Making Memories and Creating Keepsakes magazine, I'll see if I can find it for you.

I use a psb for stickers, die cuts, paper piecings, all sorts, but for my 12x12 paper I use the creative cubes. You can make them into a shelving unit using cable ties, it works really well, and it's really cheap!

I also use the Crop In Style sticker binder. I love it! I recently bought a 12x12 paper holder from the following website:

They don't make them until you order them and I still had mine within a week of my ordering! I'm really pleased with it. I wish I'd been able to get an even bigger one. I think it was $80 or so.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE(D) the creative cubes (had em in my closet for about a year) because they are so cheap, but your paper is still exposed to dust - keep it out of light though and you should be fine as far as fading goes. I have since expanded out of my house to a shop (oh, I run an online store/retail location doo-hickey - hence my need for tons of paper storage LOL). When I moved out of my closet into a shop, I bought paper racks, I got them for $60 I think, they were cheaper than novelcrafts, I would have to look at my records, but I want to say its like J & P or J & R pacific something or other out of LA - I know that really didn't help you one bit huh? LOL But if you REALLY need to know I'll find out the info for you Anyway... I love those racks, and they are stackable, which I also like. However... for my personal stash, this is what I did. Took a big (JUMBO BIG) rolling rubbermaid type of container on wheels (think the size of a toybox, LOL) and added steel bars to it. Add hanging file folders and wala, rolling paper storage. Since you can add as many file folders as you want to it, you can store your paper separated by color, patterns, etc. When going to a crop, I grab what I need and put it in one of those poly view envelopes or cropper hopper type folders. The cart I bought was $20 at KMart - I think the brand name was Home Plus, and it's the 128quart one (or maybe gallons, but I think Quart). This works fabulously for me because I can roll it all around, and it fits very nicely under tables with room on top for storage. (I put my photo boxes on top and they still easily fit under a table) Plus if you have no scrap table, you can sit on the floor and use the lid as your table! The steel bars were like $3, and rather than buying the more expensive cropper hopper hanging files for 12x12 paper, I bought legal sized hanging file folders, slit the bottoms, and stapled another one to it (minus the bar) to make it deep enough (not necessary if you only use 8.5x11). Oh yes forgot to mention, before I became totally addicted and expanded out of my house entirely, I was able to fit my psb AND 12x12 albums in the rolling storage container. I really really recommend it as a nice all around storage for paper, albums, and psb(s).
I hope that didn't make you too utterly confused! But you can PM me if you need more (and accurate) information LOL

I have the 6 shelves/6 hangers rack from novelcrafts and it holds both 8 1/2 x11 and 12x12. It holds quite a bit too-- I still need a bigger rack, but this was a great way to start getting paper organized.
