How do you store your kit? I love the cute brown paper bag that it comes in, but it's just not very practical for storing purposes. I also have a sub to Scraptastic, which shops everything in those big ziplock bags - this makes it very easy to stand them up in my cabinet. I guess I could do that with the brown paper bag, but I do like to be able to see what's in the bag without emptying its contents. So please tell me, how do you store your CT kits? TIA! |

This is my first month with the CT subs. I spread all of my kit on a table and keep staring at it. I have slowly used and put away small parts of my kit.
I dont think this is the best way and next month I am going to see if I use it better by putting it all in a 2 gallon ziplock bag. |

I stopped storing mine and started putting everything in my stash. |

I use 13 x 15 ziploc bags to store my kits and collections. The only thing I pull out is washi tape which goes into my stash after I stick a piece to the bag to remind me which rolls go with which kits.

What a GREAT idea! I'm totally going to do that.
To answer your question OP - I bought the crop bags from SC, but you can get 2 gallon zip lock bags that will do the same thing for a lot less money. I don't know that I've seen them at the grocery store but I'm sure you can get them at Walmart or Target. |

I probably won't be much help because I separate everything from my kits right when I receive them and put them away in their respective stashes... |

Thanks for the suggestions. I went out to Walmart today and bought the 2.5 gallon sized bags. They may be too nig, but I didn't have the energy to go anywhere else. Lol. I love the idea of putting a piece of washi on the bag, I'm totally stealing it |
