Hi all, I am new to this group, but need advice.
Does anyone use the Crop in Style P3 to store paper? Currently I am using wire shelving, but with a 2 yr old that is very helpful, it is not as safe (from the 2 year old's crayons) as I would like. My only other idea is to stack it in a single pile in a coat closet. I would appreciate any suggestions.
I use one of those wire drawer-type closet carts. The drawers are
15"x15", so it works well. I have scrapping friends to use the vertical storage that is sort of like magazine holders, and they like it a lot. It's expensive, though, so I haven't indulged. I do know that WalMart has an Iris storage cart with 15"x15" drawers (IIRC it's a three-drawer cart) that might work well for you, and it's under $20.Good luck. Finding crayon marks on your Bazzill paper must be majorly frustrating!
Long life, prosperity and chocolate, Raz
Welcome to RCS! I don't have the Crop in Style, but I understand about keeping paper away from little ones. Part of my paper is in the upright paper holders, kind of look like a magazine holder. The other part of my paper is in plastic drawers. Between the two, I like the upright paper holders. I've often thought about investing in one of the rolling carts made for scrapbook paper, but not too sure if I have room for it in my craft room. I think it all depends on how you want to organize your paper.
I have two kids, ages 7 and 4. When they were about 5 and 2, I swear...they got into everything! We had a fish tank at the time. The food was kept up on a high shelf, but they still managed to reach it. At one point, I thought about just hanging baskets from the ceiling and putting things I didn't want them to have out of their reach. LOL
I bought a few dozen of those clear craftkeepers they sell at AC Moore and Michaels when they were on sale. I divided my stash into colors and patterns and holidays etc. and store all my paper in the craftkeepers. All the packs fit perfectly in a clear sterlite container (it is about 14in wide and 16 inches tall so I can put the lid on it). It is not as nice as using those vertical paper storage holders but it is easy to find exactly what I am looking for and a heck of a lot cheaper than trying to obtain the same number of cropper holder folders.
Thank you everyone for your opinions and suggestions.
Are the shelves on wheels, if so you could put that in the closet?
