Collecting and Storing Scrap Paper

With all the amazing scrapbooking papers out there who doesn’t want to save every little leftover swatch? There are all kinds of elaborate storage options available for your crafting supplies, including scrap paper. But for a handy and cheap alternative think about using a simple gift box.

A small gift box works great for keeping leftover specialty papers flat and organized. And if you don’t scrapbook than it’s perfect for keeping extra bits of wrapping paper handy, which can transform plain cards and gift tags or fix mistakes in a pinch. Often scrap wrapping paper is saved but gets smashed before it can get used. By trimming the size down and laying it flat in a gift box, it can stay unwrinkled, work on getting its’ curl out and be ready when you need it.
