Thank you for your great videos! One thing I purchased with my own money that I would suggest is a stack cutter. It is worth its weight in gold! I use it ALL THE TIME!! It's great for cutting large amounts of paper and paper strips! (Mine is the 17" paper cutter.)

[@Managingthemess]

I ordered the 17” one too for next year! It was after I made the video so, I didn’t mention it. I’m looking forward to it for paper weaving strips!
