You have purchased your supplies and begun creating beautiful scrapbook pages. Now, you must decide how to properly store all of these scrapbook supplies. Scrapbook supplies have been stored in everything from diaper bags to tackle boxes.
Albums should be stored at room temperature, upright, and out of the sunlight. They should be in a humidity controlled environment making attics and garages undesirable storage areas.
It is important that precious photos be protected from the heat, humidity, and light. Photo supply cases can be purchased that store up to 900 photos and negatives. Photo files store up to 170 photos and can be used to divide photos by projects. Improper storage of photos increases the risk of tears, scratches, and bends to your photos.
Stackable paper trays are good for storing all the different color paper used in creating your scrapbook. Paper can be sorted by color in the divided trays.
Accessory binders are handy for storing stickers, borders, die-cuts, and all other embellishments. This is typically a three ring binder with plastic protection sleeves and pockets.
There are many organizers and storage containers available for storing scrapbook supplies. There are also a large number of totes available in many shapes and sizes. Totes are a portable and convenient place to store scrapbook supplies. The totes are handy not only for storing supplies in one place but for carrying supplies to crop parties and classes. Purchase a tote that is larger than you think you will need. You will be surprised once you are involved in putting scrapbooks together how quickly you will grow into a larger tote.
