I have one.
I don't love it.
It takes up A LOT of space. 3 feet at a minimum.
And if you have a lot of stuff it is VERY expensive to get the dividers and the right configurations.
I don't keep 12x12 paper in there. It gets bent and out of shape too easily.

I have the bag, it holds all my Disney embellishments. I think it keeps stuff very organized but if you have a lot of stuff, then it's not worth the expense.
I have binders with page protectors which is easier because each binder is themed. It makes hunting for stuff so much easier.

Which bag? I have the sterlite drawers organized by theme and I think I will stick with that - but the bag sounds like it might help in some of those drawers with lots of embellishments.

I don't have one. I think I have way too much stuff for it to be effective for me. However, I think their free organizing classes are well worth the effort to sign up and watch through regardless of what kind of organizing system you want to use. You don't have to use the Scrap Rack for the basic principles to work. I went through the class a few years back when we were packing up to move and never had a chance to implement any of it. I'll do it again when I have some storage in my studio and can finally unpack all my boxes of stuff.

I don't have one, and I don't want one. I like the idea of things in binders which is essential what it is. But Binders really don't work for me and the way I scrap. I like containers full of my stuff to look through. I do keep like items together, however.

I don't have one and don't want one. Years ago I implemented the same sort of organisational system on a smaller scale with PSBs (Crop in Style Paper Sticker binders - remember those). It worked great in theory but it was a LOT of work to set up and ultimately I didn't keep up with it (returning unused items to their places/putting in new product) and I gave up and took the system apart. I need something less rigid - so I use drawers and file folders to organise my stuff - easy to put stuff back away.

I have one. It was a pain when I had embellishments and stuff in it. Now I use it to store all my stamps and love it for that.

I've often wondered about the travel bag. Is it worth it?
It was scrapracks videos that inspired me to store my paper by colour.
And I was shocked at how well that has worked for me.

I like the bag, it keeps my stuff pretty organized but it is heavy. The bag also sits under my table because it's to big to store anywhere else. I think the original premise of the bag was being able to take the spinders out and replace them with what ever theme you were working on at a Crop, like say Disney or baby pages. But I found that pre kitting my pages with embellishments, paper and pics worked better for me. I too, used their organizational tips but tweaked them to my space and how I scrap. I did the papers by color and theme too, and it is a tremendous help. |

I do like mine but wish I had more space for it. I like that I can easily take it apart and box it up to hide under the bed when I need the space for guests.
I rarely go to crops anymore so I use my travel bag to store my stencils/masks.

I thought about it but I just don't have the room for it. Plus I wanted my stuff to be displayed in a pretty way.

I have one but since I don't have room to have it set up in my crop room I find I don't use it as much. I love the idea of it, her organizing ideas, and the idea of the crop bag with the spinders that you need. Now I just use them for long term storage. I do love some of her organizing plastics tho. The project page is perfect for making kits.
