I've also discovered a great scrapbook box thanks to her - the Really Useful Box, 7 litres, with tray. It's quite awesome and I'm trying to buy it, but having the hardest time finding it in Canada. She sorts her kits into it - another fascinating process! Argh, why are the boxes with trays so hard to get?! I found this on Amazon UK - $US11 + $20 more to ship it. Nope. I'll file that away in the never-going-to-happen with the Iris box tray I tried to buy on Amazon. The seller didn't actually seem to have any, but at the same time they were happy to take my order... Someone needs to make us some cheap, available kit-sorting trays for our 12x12 storage boxes! 950nancy I love your little guy. Such great attitude! Makes for such a fun cheerful spread. I'll have to check out her channel. I'm not familiar with her work at all but it sounds like fun So is this one of the things I should add to my bag when traveling abroad? Like the fiesta ware if I ever get to Australia? The next time I get to the UK I should cart a suitcase of really useful boxes?

PS every time I come across ‘really useful box’ brand boxes I can’t help but wish it had room if requirement capabilities. Like Hermoine’s bag. The name just leads me in that direction.

It's too bad because they look perfect for storing large kits/product lines. Office Depot & Staples both carry their lines, I wonder if they would special order that size? what?! That's ridiculous! I know things bigger than 12" cost a fortune but $20 is the best they can do? Yeah, I'd ask in store. The worst they can say is no.

I was looking through Lisa's channel and found this video flip through of her 2018 layout stack. She's very productive! It sounds like she just has piles and piles of layouts like this in her cupboards. I'm looking forward to seeing her promised studio tour video. I wonder if she developed her style because of difficulty getting embellishments. I gather she's in Europe. It looks like she's found great ways to make the most out of paper.

What a great job! And that paper is gorgeous. I love how you found the perfect little tiny seagull sticker too. Those were brads that I have had for years.

I think she's an art teacher and her designs just seem to come right out of the papers. Her pictures don't look like they are from abroad, but I guess I don't know.

There are 10 dividers, so you can move them according to your supplies. They fit nicely in an IRIS box. You can fit two to an IRIS case or put paper in the bottom and one of these on the top. Of course they are out of stock, but less than $7 is a good price.

I've given my email address to Walmart (ick!) on the off-chance that they'll get them back in stock (I'm not gonna be happy if they pester me!) They're the same trays I tried to order on amazon from a 3rd party seller. As soon as I placed an order they went out of stock but I didn't get any shipping notification or anything so I asked them for an explanation (shrug) and then canceled the order. They seem to have been out of stock everywhere I've looked since. I'm not going to hold my breath. But I really want a couple for the iris cases I already bought!

BTW thank you for sharing about Lisa Fonseca's work! I've been watching her videos and she's very interesting and talented. I've been missing out! I also discovered (on IG) that she's from Luxembourg. www.instagram.com/lisafonseca1985/

I also discovered (on IG) that she's from Luxembourg. www.instagram.com/lisafonseca1985/I found her when she first started. I think I was maybe #17 of her list of subscribers. Her style isn't anything like mine, but I love watching her work. Glad you like her too.
