										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I collected everything I needed to get started with Project Life, I realised that I had ended up with lots of different things in different boxes. It would be great, I thought, to have everything in one place, particularly as I don&#8217;t have a craft room so tend to move all my stuff around the house! Despite saying I wouldn&#8217;t buy any more cards having bought the Blush and Strawberry kits, I *might* have bought some more&#8230;maybe Kiwi and Honey&#8230;well, they all go together so well, and they were on offer&#8230;! But back to the Project Life storage problem. I had a look online, but all the best storage things seem to be available in America &#8211; I love this wooden one by <a title="CherieBee" href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/171401310/large-24-craft-storage-for-scrapbooking?ref=favs_view_8" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CherieBee</a> on Etsy, but it was really expensive for me to buy and then ship over to the UK. So I needed an alternative, and came across this box in <a title="John Lewis" href="http://www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-storage-box-with-2-trays-21-litres/p747264?navAction=jump" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">John Lewis</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-5419"></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5540" src="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9759.jpg" alt="IMG_9759" width="1024" height="768" srcset="https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9759.jpg 1024w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9759-300x225.jpg 300w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9759-768x576.jpg 768w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9759-20x15.jpg 20w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9759-600x450.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Sorry for the not-so-good photo &#8211; it was really difficult to get a good one! The box is 21 litres (not that I could really picture what size that would be from the photo online) and it came with two inserts. Each insert has 12 compartments, which is fine for the 3 x 4 cards, but the 4 x 6 ones don&#8217;t fit. I went and had a look at the manufacturer&#8217;s website and found that I could buy an insert with <a title="6 larger compartments" href="http://www.reallyusefulproducts.co.uk/uk/html/onlineshop/rub/aTrayLarge06.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">6 larger compartments</a>, so I ordered one and it came really quickly &#8211; yay!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9763.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5541" src="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9763.jpg" alt="IMG_9763" width="1024" height="679" srcset="https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9763.jpg 1024w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9763-300x199.jpg 300w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9763-768x509.jpg 768w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9763-20x13.jpg 20w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9763-600x398.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So now that I had the inserts that I needed, I could get organising! I must admit that I LOVE to organise stuff &#8211; and I would be far more organised if I had a place to keep all my stuff in one place and easily accessible for crafting. Can you tell that I dream of having a craft room a lot?! Anyway, I started with the larger cards and realised that I needed to put some bits of sturdy card in the bottom of each one to prevent bending. I just cut up some card that was in the back of my Project Life paper packs to do this.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9772.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5542" src="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9772.jpg" alt="IMG_9772" width="768" height="1024" srcset="https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9772.jpg 768w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9772-225x300.jpg 225w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9772-15x20.jpg 15w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9772-600x800.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Next, I made some little dividers to separate each kind of card and kit in my box &#8211; I needed to do this because there aren&#8217;t enough compartments for all the kits I have now! So I used a 4 x 6 card as a guide, and made some little dividers with some spare white card I had.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9774.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-5543 size-full" src="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9774-e1412267278507.jpg" alt="IMG_9774" width="768" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The dividers have a tab in a slightly different place so that I can see what I&#8217;m looking for more easily, and I wrote the kit and card type on each one.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9778.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5544" src="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9778.jpg" alt="IMG_9778" width="1024" height="756" srcset="https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9778.jpg 1024w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9778-300x221.jpg 300w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9778-768x567.jpg 768w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9778-20x15.jpg 20w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9778-600x443.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9779.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5545" src="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9779.jpg" alt="IMG_9779" width="1024" height="768" srcset="https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9779.jpg 1024w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9779-300x225.jpg 300w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9779-768x576.jpg 768w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9779-20x15.jpg 20w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9779-600x450.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The 3 x 4 cards fit really well in the insert with 12 compartments &#8211; I didn&#8217;t bother making any dividers for them because a kit fits in three compartments, which is handy! So left to right, I have Blush, Kiwi, Strawberry and Honey.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5546" src="http://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783.jpg" alt="IMG_9783" width="1024" height="1024" srcset="https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783.jpg 1024w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783-300x300.jpg 300w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783-150x150.jpg 150w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783-768x768.jpg 768w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783-20x20.jpg 20w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783-600x600.jpg 600w, https://hellohooray.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_9783-100x100.jpg 100w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s great being able to flick through all my cards more easily now! One thing that doesn&#8217;t fit in this box is my paper, so I got one of the <a title="scrapbooking boxes" href="http://www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-storage-box-with-scrapbook-tray-7-litres-clear/p747268" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">scrapbooking boxes </a>too. It has made my scrapbooking so much easier now that I have everything in one place &#8211; well, two boxes, but that&#8217;s manageable!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I also want to tell you about a really useful site that I found, where you can find out about all the Project Life kits and see what&#8217;s in each one. Check out <a title="Miss Magoo Scraps" href="http://missmagooscraps.wordpress.com/2014/04/13/complete-list-of-project-life-kits/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Miss Magoo Scraps </a>for the complete list of kits &#8211; it&#8217;s really useful if you&#8217;re wanting to get started or mix up your cards with some new ones! That&#8217;s how I realised that Kiwi and Honey would match Blush and Strawberry really nicely. You might also want to check out my <a title="Pinterest board" href="http://www.pinterest.com/hellohoorayblog/project-life/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Pinterest board </a>if you&#8217;re looking for some inspiration! How do you store your Project Life kits? Has anyone gone digital with the app? I&#8217;d love to know what you think of it!</p>
