BUTTONS..... all sorted by colors and sizes!
I just had to share how I store the buttons I use most. I still have a giant jar full of the buttons with the shanks and another jar full of just the vintage white/cream buttons. Oh, and the trays with metal and vintage colored buttons.
So, what can you not get enough of an how to you keep it all organized?

Well I don't have very many, but I don't think I can have too many enamel dots.
The other things that come to mind are adhesives and trimmer blades.

Nice buttons!
The one thing I could go overboard on is brads. If a collection has a pretty brad set, I have been known to buy some of the paper just so I have an excuse to buy the brads. At this point, they all fit into a metal basket in a drawer of my apothecary chest.

Paper. About two or three years ago, my paper was taller than I am. ((blush)) I've gotten it under control since then.
Your buttons are so pretty! I love the way you have them gathered together: so inspiring.

Enamel dots. I just love them.
I also can't have enough adhesive refills. I am always afraid I'll run out.

Love your buttons!
For me, it's paper flowers. I use them so quickly, I'm always on the verge of running out.

I use them so quickly, I'm always on the verge of running out. okay, I admit, paper flowers are my 3rd addiction. when I discovered that the Prima Marketing warehouse was not too far from me, I've been able to stock up on packs and packs of their flowers. so many flowers, so little space. |

For me, it is enamel dots and I have collected a lot of sequins as well. I am also loving the chipboard stars from Studio Calico's essential line. I will be sad when I run out of those - will have to try and make my own  |

okay, here are SOME (about 1/2) of my paper:
these ones are collections and pads. I like to leaf through my papers standing up so I have these on top of a cupboard. each bin is 2 feet long:
these are bins for my solid cardstock and other paper:
this is a rolling bin for scraps and more solid cardstock: 
I have another cupboard with bins for holiday paper only and a closet with misc paper. don't have pics of those but those make up another 1/2 of the paper I own.

Enamel dots for me, too. They're relatively inexpensive, don't take up much space, and they come in so many colors.
