Spring Clean Your Scrapbook Space

Have you seen the viral video featuring the woman who lives in a 90-square-foot studio in Manhattan? Sure, it’s located across from Lincoln Center and a block from Central Park, but the place is smaller than most suburban bedroom closets. Lucky for her, she’s a professional organizer and her dad’s a bankruptcy attorney, so she knows how to make do with few things, and the items she does have are perfectly placed throughout the tiny apartment. Her story got me thinking about spring cleaning my scrapbook space. Sadly, my little scrapbooking nook is about the same size as the woman’s … Continue reading →

However, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit to being tempted by some of the sales, including ones for scrapbooking storage items. I could use a couple of sturdy storage carts for my scrapbooking supplies. Actually, I could use the help of Ty Pennington and the rest of the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition crew to build an entire scrapbooking room, but I don’t think there is … Continue reading →

Spring Cleaning Your Scrapbook Supplies

It’s Spring and that means it is time for cleaning. There are two reasons I chose to write about spring cleaning your scrapbook area.

The second reason, is because with all garage sale articles I have been writing, over in frugal living, I wanted to spring clean my scrapbook area as well, to make it neat and organized (and to make room for more stuff!). Spring Cleaning your scrapbook area can be as easy as just … Continue reading →
