I've been out of the scrapbooking loop for a few years now but I'm starting to get back into the groove now. I have a ton of page protectors (12x12 plus a lot of different "pocket page" ones) Whats the best way to store these? Or organize them?

I keep mine in a cheap scrapbook album separated by type. They're easier to go through and portable to crops that way.

I store mine horizontally on a wide shelf. It's easier for me to keep them in pristine condition that way. I keep them in their packaging when possible. It's still pretty fast and easy to find the ones I want. I do have some with pockets, but that is for my stamp storage.

I keep mine in a 12x12 binder sorted by type & style...

I have mine all over the place in whatever box or bag they end up in. Generally though when I buy page protectors I use them right away.

I keep mine in the original plastic packaging & store them vertically.

I keep mine in a 12x12 binder sorted by type & style... That, except for the "plain" 12x12, which I keep near my scrapbook table in an Iris case. |

I have some in unused albums, but I keep others in my Kallax...inside of one of the bins that slides into it. I prefer the album method for page protectors that do not come with a cardboard or chipboard backer (like Project Life or Seven Paper branded ones).

It's still pretty fast and easy to find the ones I want. I do have some with pockets, but that is for my stamp storage. Mine are horizontal on a wide shelf too. It's not a great look, but I can easily find what I need. If ever find a decent box for them, maybe I'll hide them in a decorated box. But they'll likely stay horizontally in the same spot. |

I keep mine in an Iris 12-inch clear scrapbook file box, separated with those project life plastic dividers, labeled with a hand drawn pic of the type of page protector it is.

My pocket page ones are kept in spare d-ring album, easy to flip through to find what I want. However, most of my pocket-page ones are horizontal 4x6 pockets to store excess photos in that don't get scrapped.
My standard ones are kept in the original packaging and on a shelf on top of part of my cardstock collection. I keep 1-2 packs in one of my crop bags so I have them as I finish pages at the crops I go to.

I put all my A design in my current year album. All the others I store flat in a Becky Higgins big pack box.

Mine are just in a box I got a long time ago when I ordered a kit from QVC. It’s actually nice and matches the album that came with the kit. But anyway, all my regular page protectors, all sizes, are in there as are my PL pages. They’re sorted together and the box sits on top of my Expedit shelf.

I put a bunch of pocket protectors at the back of my album so I can just grab one there when I need an insert or a different pocket configuration.
The rest I keep in the packaging on the shelf where the albums live in my scrap room.

I have mine horizontally on a wide shelf in the closet. But reading here, I think I will put them in a box. Maybe I'll cut off the flaps from a 13x13 shipping box.

I keep my 12x12 page protectors in an old studio calico zippered pouch. I only have a few 6x8's left over from my DD so they are in the original packaging just tossed in a drawer. All my other page protectors are stored in an old 12x12 D ring album.

I’m scrapping 9x12 or smaller, so I’m thinking about getting one of those expanding file folders to hold my page protectors. I don’t love putting them in unused albums right now — all the opening and closing of the binder rings seems to wear them out.

I have a few of each in a album but the rest are in a box in a drawer so they stay flat.

After just organizing all of my page protectors last night, I must say some of mine have gotten slightly curled on the ends since I store them vertically on a shelf. After reading this post, I'm now thinking about moving them to someplace FLAT. I hate when then get bent.

I keep all of my 6x8 in a Simple Stories Snsp album. Each type of protector has kraft cardstock cut to fit each pocket so it’s easy for me to flip through and grab what I want.
I keep my 12x12 in a Project Life page protector box. It currently has We R protectors living in it.
I keep the 12x12 pockets and 6x12 in another Project Life box.
