storage for stickers and embellies

Anyone have suggestions on how best to store stickers and embellishments? I have TONS of all sizes and for the most part they are sitting in different storage containers, bu they are a pain to dig through and by the time I do find what I'm looking for, I am not in a scrappy mood.

I have these books I picked up at the $1 store. They're plastic, with plastic sleeves inside. I sorted stickers by category (I kept it to only a few), and put the stickers in the books.

I've got mine hanging from my Clip It Up. I put two pages per clip, back to back so I can see what's what!

Back in my paper days, I got this big expandable file with a handle on it, legal sized, and sorted all my alpha stickers by color inside. My other large sticker sheets I sorted by theme.

I have one of those binders and its filled to the gills, fifferent sized plastic sleeves in in. But, I don't want 10 of those books sitting artound, they are too heavy to carry to crops. A couple months ago I found a heavy duty expandable file folder at Staples. Its nice but not that big. But, that cost about $6 and I can't buy 50 of those. What is a Clip It Up? I am totally unorganized when it comes to sticker/embellishments.

For stickers, I have a 3 ring, zipper binder with pages that hold different sizes of stickers. I have the alphabets in an accordian 12x12 file by color. I have stickers in drawers of storage units. I have embellishments in plastic, see-through boxes, in hanging storage and in the desk drawer. I can't easily find what I'm looking for, but I do find lots of stuff I forgot I had! Somehoe I think I'm of no help to you! Sorry.

Ann--think circular clothes rack...but for embellishments! I'm still getting used to mine, but I will tell you, I can sure see what I have now!

For stickers and rub ons I have a white drawer with hanging files. I sort them into themes. The drawers are the ones you can get at target or michaels.It works really well.For embelishments. I have little jars I have small jars I got from the container store and I also got some really cute salt shakers from the restraunt supply. They are so cute.

I usually keep company lines together in the big plastic bags. For embellishments I purchased the plastic $2 bead organizers from Walmart. I sort all my embellishments by color in the boxes, like buttons, brads, eyelets, flowers, jewels, etc each in a compartment.

I have an expandable file for my stickers and rub-ons too, but I'm starting to outgrow it. I put my embellishments in a tackle box, and that works very well. Keeps them organized and all together.
