You all are the best! Thanks for joining in Everyone.

I’m tempted to use all my supplies up this month but will pace myself.

I’m curious - how do you store your Christmas themed supplies? I have an Iris container with divided trays but if I don’t keep it flat, everything spills into the bottom. I bought a new deeper Iris container so I can keep my papers and sheets of embellishments with the fiddle bits. Maybe I need to put those fiddle bits in zip loc bags? Or give in and mix them all together? First world problems, I know.

Good question about Christmas supplies. Papers are in their own file, so far in with all the other papers by category. I keep those 12x12 sticker sheets in with the papers because of their size. I'm not exactly sure how high that stack is, but I wouldn't admit it even if I knew. All my Christmas embellishments are in one of those pretty covered boxes from Michaels, not in my studio but easily accessible in my storage area. So far, they're pretty much all in their original packaging in the box, with a couple sandwich baggies where I wanted to keep things together like Christmas ribbons. I have one additional bin with larger, 3-dimensional items in it, i.e. Christmas floral picks from Michaels. Overall not the most efficient system, but it works for me. Christmas stamps and dies are in their own sections in my stamp and die storage; so far I've enough room that I haven't needed to move them elsewhere.

If I purchase anymore Christmas themed supplies, I will need a separate room just for them.
right now I use the deep Iris box containers and a six drawer Iris cart
