Organization is so important to me in my everyday life as well as in my hobbies and interests. So of course, when it comes down to scrapbooking, in order for me to work well and be as creative as I can, I must get organized and stay organized. However, organization and storage methods are expensive and can cost a lot.
There are two ways you can combat the cost. You can either build and obtain storage methods slowly, so as to only use a bit of money at a time. In the long run, it still ends up being as expensive as it would have been, however it won’t cost you bundles all up front.
You can also focus on budget organization and storage methods. This is the preferred method, because while all the fun storage units and gadgets are great and look real pretty, they are not affordable for many.
I have become obsessed with finding the most budget friendly organization and storage methods out there. I have found all kinds of ways to store paper, ribbons, embellishments and more, in much more frugal ways than you would think.
Over the month of September, with your help and input, I am going to start showing off some extremely frugal methods for storing stuff. In fact, you might even have some of these things handy or you can obtain them for real cheap.
What I need from you, is the types of items that you are in a critical need of storage for. I want to know what items cause you the most problems and that you find the most difficult to find low cost budget friendly storage for.
Also, if you have found a method that works for you, where you have reused something you already had or it will cost a scrapbooker mere change to use, let me know. This needs to be extremely frugal storage and not something that would still cost a bundle.
