When I saw your title, I thought you meant that all of your scrapping supplies fit in a single drawer! Hahaha! Not since the first week of scrapbooking.

alyssam, like the new picture! Anyone remember "serendipity squares" from when everyone bought their first square punch? I need to make one of those pages. OM Gosh! Yes. I haven't thought about those in a long time.

I have a 'scrap system" lol. long, thin strips go in a glass. I use these most often than any other "scrap". small pieces, that would be good for punches go in a ziplock bag in my punches drawer. very large pieces go back in the same folder as the paper it matches (anything like 1/2 a sheet or better) then, medium sized pieces all go in one basket ( kinda a mail holder basket) and I search there first for photo mats, card fronts etc. I am not a good purger at all lol even for scraps Sounds like I might have to give your system a try. Right now, any scraps from a collection stays with the collection; anything at least 6x12 goes back in a special section within the PP section, anything smaller goes into one messy untouched drawer.

Good idea, I usually throw mine out since I have way to much paper.

This thread motivated me to cut down my scraps to usable sizes and toss the little pieces. I have three piles, 6x4, 4x4 and 3x4. I also have a stack of any that were 12' long and at least 3" wide. My messy scrap drawers don't look so messy anymore!
