- Paper is such a beautiful supply that I tend to hoard it like crazy!

Love the idea of a 'limited space' to help with decisions. Thanks for the inspiration to tackle this much task.
Yes! I think setting boundaries helps me visualize the logical amount I should keep and that encourages me to be very selective with what I keep.
You have no idea how much this video series is helping me! I went through my single sheets while I was watching the video & I have a nice size pile in there to send off to my sister. She loves scrapbooking, too. It's the only thing we have in common, really, but I am very grateful to have someone to pass this stuff on to.
I’m so glad it helps! I’ve done a lot of work for design teams over the last five years and it wasn’t until I started making stash kits that I realized how much I’d accumulated. It was overwhelming me and that’s not fun. Even after two years of severely limiting my buying and stepping back from teams, I still had so much. It was time!
I just love sitting here watching you flip through your paper.
It’s funny, I wasn’t sure anyone would want to watch that part, but it seemed silly not to give examples and show my thinking in the moment.
I love this series! Thank you so much for helping us clear out stuff we won't use!
It’s helped me stay accountable too!
For the first time ever in 20+years I purged my paper. Then I took the whole big 'no ' paper to the elementary school for the art teacher. Thank you for the inspiration and helpful tips! I wouldn't have done it without you!!
That’s amazing! I sure they appreciate that donation. I’m so glad it’s helpful. The process has been so cathartic for me and I’m excited to have a curated stash to draw from.
I am finally getting all my paper purged & my room finished. Excited to post some pics when I'm done. These videos are so useful as I finish the process.
Yay! Already the purging has made such a difference in my room!
My heart cried a little every time a Bella Blvd paper went into the No Pile 😩
Understandable! I love Bella, but my stash needs variety!
Love the no, yes, maybe…do you keep solids and patterns together? It seemed like you several solids in your color groups. It’s funny what we pick, I agreed with most of your choices, but what really liked is that you didn’t choose by paper brand, which I think for most of us how we feel does switch over time! Loving this series! 🫶
These were all patterned papers, but some definitely read as solid. I don’t use much color card stock, just navy, black, and gray. Yes, I’m all over the board with brands of paper. It’s all so pretty!
Great tutorial and something I really need to do as I need to downsize this next year. I will take the next rainy day for the project.
So glad it was helpful! Sharing this process with y'all has helped me remain accountable too!
What fun this was. Don’t love dots but crazy about stripes and plaids so we’re not on the same wavelength. Had to laugh about your comments about colours. When I go through my card stock I’m always second guessing myself…is it grey or beige or even green.
Yes! Sometimes it depends on the lighting to me. Figuring out the colors can be so tricky!
Great video! There were soooo many papers that I would have said yes to. 😩
I’m die cutting the other side of my “ugly” paper while I watch ur videos. Thank you 😊
When I had the space for it, I did keep so much more than I needed, but with a much smaller space, I have to be selective!
Thank you so much for doing this series. One of the most helpful strategies I have learned from you and this series is that I should consider how much of something is manageable for me.
I used to think I needed to find a storage solution for the amount of supplies I had, rather than creating a system and ensuring that my supplies don’t exceed their allotted space.
Could you store more paper in those cubes if you store it vertically? Sure, but if having too much paper overwhelms you, then that’s not a good solution.
I also find that when I have to get rid of things, it really reminds me to be intentional about the supplies I bring into my crat space. I have to consider what I am willing to let go of to make space for the new item.
So true! I think it’s important to consider what you can handle first, rather than what your space can hold.
Yes this was very helpful Laura ! I am purging things I don’t love and will not use .
Glad it was helpful! Yes! It is long overdue for me.
Loved this!
Thank you, Willa! 💕
Loved watching you go through, that is something I definitely need to do!
It was definitely time!
Purging my paper pads while watching yours! Thanks for the tips 😊
That’s awesome! I pulled most of mine apart awhile back and kept my favorites. Never once regretted it.
Yes Maybe No concept was harder than I thought it would be but glad I did it with one pile…now on to another! Great video as always!
It’s tricky at first to make those decisions so fast, but it really helps not to stare at it too long. I find if I am unsure enough to stare, it’s a maybe.
Hi Laura ....This was a fun and interesting Hangout!! Great Ideas and Tips. Looking forward to more of your Craft Room Purdge ideas and anything that you come up with for ideas of ways to deal with an abundance of Scraproom goodies!!
Wishing you a FABULOUS FRIDAY!! YOU SO ROCK!!
Joan Smith
Thank you, Joan! You too! I’m trying to make a big dent in my stash so it will be easier to move. I am hoping to downsize to a much more manageable house and there is very little chance that I’ll have a dedicated craft room, so purging is the way to do it!
@@lauraalbertscrafts ❤️🥰👌👍💕
@@lauraalbertscraftsI had to drastically down size when I moved into 1000 sq feet condo with very little storage. It was hard!!! I got rid of about 40 paper pads but I did go through them and took out papers I knew I would use. On another note...your hair looks so pretty!
Great video with good information and hejpful examples!
Glad it was helpful!
I wish I could do it that way. Your such a strong lady.
are you donating the go-papers to school or so?
Yes! Dividing between my kids’ school and a women’s shelter here locally.
I am not generally sentimental about things. Photos? Yes! But not supplies.
Great ideas on purging… what do you do with your no pile? Give away, donate?
Donate to schools and a women’s shelter.
This is wonderful, but I keep collections together for the most part. I do have some singles that I keep separate, but it really does take awhile for me to pull a kit apart ....if I ever do. If possible I'd love a vid addressing what to do in that case. It's so hard to just throw out collections and if I start taking things apart that makes way more of a decision mess! Oh and btw-I have to purge 21 years of stuff. It's easy when I come across certain outdated things like the thin pattern paper and I don't feel bad about tossing it. My problem comes when I still like a collection, but know I have too much how do I narrow down all the yes's??
Understandable! I’ve put off collections to the end because I had to pack mine up. It will definitely be a more labor intensive process.
Great job! I definitely need to purge…
My stash has grown so much from
design team work that I couldn’t find anything. It was time. 🫶
Great ideas. I need some one to knock some common sense in me. THANKS
It's so hard to let go of things you've spent money on, I absolutely get it. I like to tell myself that I deserve to have a functional and FUN space for my hobbies and if it's overwhelming, it's neither. That's been a major motivator for me.
Can I ask why you don’t keep doubles? I do a 2 page spread at a time and I would be upset if I didn’t have another sheet. Or would this be printed and not solid card stock?
I did keep some doubles, but generally I do one page layouts. If I do a two page layout, they would be coordinating instead of continuous, so I don’t need two!
Good stuff👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🫶🏻
Organization....ugh
Agreed. I’d much rather be scrapping!
I don’t get it, that you didn’t look at the backsides! 😥😮🫠
I had already organized these stacks with my favorite side on top. If that top side didn’t grab me when I was going through it, the back wouldn’t either.
