    It was great hearing you acknowledge that organizing the bits and pieces of our craft can be hard. So we have to work on the not-hard aspect. I like your tray idea. You can see things and I'm a visual person, so this would work for me. Your file system in the long box is amazing! My pile now has a hope of getting organized. My hope is to get my things in order so that I know where things are. Thank you for sharing, Joyce

    Fantastic video. I love your organization skills and went right to DOLLAR Tree to get trays that work so much better than throwing scraps in freezer bags. I spend as much time organizing as creating. If I’m not organized I’m frustrated so your ideas have been a tonic for me. Thank you for so many ideas in all your videos.

    I have to agree with Barbara, a most beneficial video about using up scraps. The true junk journal would be filled with these adorable items. My head is swimming with ideas now!! You have a very organised storage system which would make the world of difference to my creating process if implemented, wonderful video Cori.

      Thank you Leigh and welcome! I’m glad to hear that you’ve found some of these ideas helpful. Full disclosure though; I’m only mostly organized. I saw an ad for a video where someone had made small paper clip embellishments and I thought “I’ve made something similar... wonder where they are?” and I found a small bin piled high with more scrap projects. There *might* be a Scrap Busters 2 in the near future 😊
