just for fun - if you use ch's - how many does it take to hold your patterned paper "collection?"
i'm getting ready to purge mine - i think i have about 12-14 ch's right now full of patterned paper... silly girl! |

I have about 6, I think - and really could use more. I have several collections and an iris case full of recent purchases I need to sort.

Well, I only have 7 true CH's. Then I recycled old shipping boxes, covered them in pretty paper and made my own version. I have around 6 of those, but they don't hold as much as the CH's.  |

Oh, ummm. I have 8 and then some stored in baggies in a couple of big boxes that could easily fill 3 or 4 more cropper hoppers. Hanging my head because I just ordered some more EP collection kits. Where is that 12x12 step sign-up? | |

I have 9. I use 6 to store the sticker and page planner cropper to store my collections. Not just the paper. 3 are for card stock. I only buy after using or purging a lot. Except now...this girl can't say no to OA Santa Sack... |

I just bought my 10th CH because that's how many fit on my shelf, and since the first 9 were the "old style" I wanted to finish the set before the new style ones take over! I think I've got half cardstock and half pp. |

"Thickers Policy" here as well .
I do need to do another destash I'm holding onto a bunch of KI and Chatterbox. There's just no way I can use that much. It's just so hard . |

Actually have 12. Would need another 18 if I wasn't also using the 3-drawer Iris plastic, single Iris containers, and a paper rack.
I'm hopeful I can wheedle that count down to 10 max (less? even better).

5, but two are mostly empty, one is Halloween only, and I store all my paper within those in CH page planner envelopes with their scraps and coordinated (flat) embellishments as well, so that's taking up space that's not 12x12 paper. One of those is full of My Little Shoebox paper that I think it's time to say goodbye to.
I also have 1 more that is just cardstock in page planner envelopes |

1 for patterned paper including scraps. I also keep my stickers sheets in there. I have 2 CH worth of cardstock (also, including scraps). I sort my papers by colour and use 12x12 plastic bags, so everything goes in its colour bag regardless of size. It is the only way I've found that means I'll actually use my scraps. |

I have 4 with cardstock (white/black, brown/beige/red/orange, yellow/green, blue/purple) plus 1 of those mini divider ones with pink, and 4 with patterned paper (organized the ScrapRack way -- 1 rainbow for non-themed papers, in ROYGBIV order; a 2nd rainbow for neutral coloured patterned paper, plus birthdays and weddings; 1 calendar for seasons and annual events like Valentine's Day, Halloween, etc. and 1 themes box for things like babies/kids, nature, etc.). But my Christmas/winters papers are in another cupboard, and should really be gone through soon, plus I have a handful of kits (maybe 6?). I really need to de-stash again, since my scrapbooking papers are most likely going into storage when we move, and we're going to be gone for 3 or 4 years....

Ok....I just counted & have 50 filled with paper(pp & cardstock). I also have one with chipboard. What is sad is I need 2-3 more for the newer paper stacked next to my desk. And...this is after purging approx. 4-5 paper boxes full of paper. I think I may have an addiction | |
