my awesome bff got me these storage things for my birthday (i think she said it was from costco)
and i knew that they would be perfect to get my outrageous vinyl stash organized!!!!
i know what you are thinking…holy crap woman..do you really need all these for your vinyl.
and the answer is yes. yes i do.
the first thing i do when i get my vinyl (i buy the 12×24 cause it’s the best deal) i cut it down to 12×12. i like to lay them flat cause once your mat gets a little unsticky, and the vinyl is curled…it’s hard to keep it down as your cutting it.
so bin number 1: my BIG pieces of plain colored vinyl…
when i’m doing a big project i immediately have all the vinyl right there at my finger tips (it’s color coordinated too)
#3
one for my scraps (keep um!!!!!) if you need ideas on what to do with them..go HERE
I always keep my negative space…you never know when you need a k outline…or a peace sign outline. these come in really handy when you need to personalize a notebook or a book or something for your kids…
also..i do a few little projects that need like just an inch or two ….and i hate cutting into my big 12×12 for that. after i cut my vinyl on the cameo..i cut around all the words or design to save as much unused vinyl as possible before i peel off the negative space!
(all the words on my bins are made from scrap pieces!)
now…in here…i keep my ongoing list of colors i need. i try to always keep one 12×12 of each color…so when i notice that i’m getting low…i just jot it down. then when i see the list getting big…or i need a bunch of vinyl for a project and i’m already putting in an order..i know what i need!!!
expressions vinyl actually sells a little sample of each color for $4.
