Using zippered plastic bags for storage?

I store most of my smaller 'stuff' in 12x12 Iris boxes (think journaling cards, stickers, rhinestones, enamel dots, etc. Originally I had it all randomly tossed in the Iris container, but found it hard to dig through when I wanted something specific. I used a number of sandwich-sized and quart-sized plastic bags to contain 'like' items in the boxes and make it a little neater. Now my 'stickers and journaling cards' Iris box holds zipper bags that in turn hold the 3x4 cards, 4x6 cards, loose sticker sheets, etc. This works for me because I don't sort my supplies by color or by collection, but by what the items are; it wouldn't necessarily work for anyone else.

I also have page kits and half-completed pages in the large zipper bags, and those are stored in a plastic handled case.

eta: this is the case I use for my half-completed pages (purchased at Joann's during a SB storage sale!) It comes with hanging folders, but I just pop my page kits into it in their large plastic bags. Someone posted in the thread about page protectors that they store their page protectors in the same case... now I may *need* to get another one!

I use the approx 13x13 bags to store kits (either from a kit club or homemade) and I have them in a big basket I got at Hobby Lobby. When I want to scrap, I try to go through that basket first and see if anything in there inspires me before I go digging through the rest of my stash.

I mainly use them for kits. I have divided bead type plastic organizers for wood veneer, sequins, flair, etc.

I use all different sizes of plastic bags for storage and organization. I have small bits like wood veneer in some and I use larger ones for storing scraps.

I buy the generic 2 gallon size bags at my local grocery store. I store the upright in a basket.

Hey Linda I see you're in Florida, so am I. I'm in Davenport. Are you any where close? Nancy

I use the really small baggies, used for jewelry items I think, and put my small embellishments in those. I have all my brads/eyelets/washers/charms, etc., etc. in those baggies and everything is sorted by type and color. I punched holes in the corner edges and have them on rings. I did this many, many years ago - maybe 10? and it has worked well for me ever since.
