We all love to scrapbook, but as time goes on we collect more and more supplies and don't have a place to put them. Your worries are over because today we are going to make our own scrapbooking organizer.

Now you will know where everything is because it will be set up and organized nicely.

What you will need:

- A nice shelf you can clear out just for your scrapbooking space. If you don't already have a shelf, you can pick one up at any office supply store.

- Four or five paper racks. These are the racks that you can put your documents in without folding them.

- Several medium sized bins or baskets that will fit perfectly on your shelf. (You should be able to find these at any home design store, or office supplies store.)

- Polaroid camera.

- Permanent markers.

- Small Ziploc bags for stickers, beads, etc.

- Hot glue gun.

Now it is time to put it all together:

1. To begin you want to find the perfect spot for your scrapbooking shelf. A few great places would be the basement, storage room or even your home office.

2. Set up your shelf in it's designated area, then get all of your other supplies ready in a good working location. Be sure to have your scrapbooking supplies available as well.

3. Label each bin for the types of materials it will hold. For instance, if you have 3 bins you can name them embellishments, stamps, cutouts, etc... Create a bin for every category of supplies. You can use more bins for stencils, paper, templates and the like.

The last bin can be used for miscellaneous supplies that don't fit into the other categories.

4. Now it is time to put every scrapbook supply in its matching bin. Use the Polaroid camera to take a picture of the supplies. Hot glue your picture to the front of the bin or basket carefully. If you don't have a camera, you can always just make a label out of markers.

5. Gather your different papers and place them in the scrapbooking organizer paper racks. That way you will always have the right paper when you need it.

6. Now simply place the bins up on the shelf and you are ready to go. Voila!
