Organized Scrapbooking Club Kits

I have just became a member of two Scrapbooking Kit Clubs Scraptastic Club and Cocoa Daisy. I had to find a way to organize my kits in my small 9' x 7' space. I went online to search for organization ideas to store them on top of my 8 1/2 x 11 paper bin and I found nothing. I was searching for a new office chair on Craigslist and found this 19 x 13 cardboard storage unit for $12. I thought it was perfect and not to far from me to pick up.

Plain Thick Cardboard Storage Unit with 6 drawers 


Here is the Cardboard Storage Unit painted in Craft Smart,Acrylic Paint Color (Wine) bought at JoAnn. I used 3 layers of paint and stamped on some flourish stamped designs and heat embossed them in white. I kept one drawer on this storage unit and moved the other 5 drawers to a bookcase that's located on the right side of this unit. This idea is perfect for me, because it's located next to my desk, so I can just reach out and grab a kit. 

Becky Higgins Project Life page protector come in these great cardboard packages. I removed my page protectors and stored them somewhere else and used these to store my kits. The second shelve stores my PL(Project Life) kit from Scraptastic and I stored it in a serving dish. I printed and glued the Scraptastic logo on 2 of these and used my Dymo label maker to add the month and year of kit. I actually used  my Quickutz Mini Star Alphabet to cut out the word Cocoa Daisy and also used my Dymo label maker to add the month and year of the kit. Once I get a new kit the older one will be stored in a page protector and I will label it on top with the name of the kit, month and year. Oh I almost forgot, but I also printed the list of items on each kit and stored with each kit, so if I run out of supplies I know what I'm looking for and can order more. I got the idea to store my kits in these Becky Higgins boxes from Tracy aka Mercy Tiara's on YouTube, she stores them in these as well, Thanks! Tracy.
