I have a couple storage tips that I use the help to keep me organized. Nothing new - but it is what works for me. I have a small but long (runs under the stairs) scrap space and so I need to try to use the space as best as I can. I use the top shelf to store things like ribbon, sprays, mini books, etc. Here is how I store my ribbon.
I have LOTS of ribbon. And a long time ago I started collecting these jars (from target) and now I have one for every color - I think there are a couple off to the left that you can't see. I have an extra large jar for all of my pink ribbon. I love this because I can easily see/grab what I want without having to go through a bag of ribbon (which is what I had years ago). I have a few spools to the right that I keep that way - they are my satin ribbon that I love.
Another way I like to save some space is by putting many of the things I don't use all the time but may take up space.
I used to have all of these things on a shelf on display - well except for the the chipboard and the mini books. But They just weren't getting used that much and I would rather have things that I use more frequently at reach. So, I put them in these containers that I bought at Michael's/ All of my sprays/mists are in one container. Chipboard pieces that are not minis are in the second container. Then I have mini books that I buy and I KNOW I will use someday - they have a nice home in the third container. And then, all my lovely paint that I think my daughter uses more than I do is at the bottom. I used some cute Creative Imginations label stickers to label them.
I know this isn't anything new, but it is what works for me. And, I always like seeing what and how others organize their spaces, especially small spaces like mine.
Have a wonderful weekend.
