My Project Life Station

*smacks hand* Bad Blogger!

I left a cryptic clue a week or so back about my amazing purchase then forgot to post about it. My amazing find was a desk organiser from Homeart for just $19.99! I ended up buying three because they're just so cheap and so versatile. You can find them on the Homeart website here and see if your local store has any stock.

This is how I have used one of them. It's pic-heavy so I'll save the others for another day. I had to remove the hinged shelf from the back of the organiser and now it holds nearly everything I need (except album/sleeves) to complete a Project Life layout. At a squeeze, this unit could hold two core kits but I just have one core kit, some plain 3x4 cards and some I've made myself (from trimming free printables or regular scrapbooking paper).

I covered this clipboard myself to hold my layout planner pages. It's really handy for noting which pics will go where before you even start to edit and print your pics. You can write the photos file name in the grid (ie IMG0245) or a brief description. And you can even scribble down journalling, quotes etc that you want to remember. I can't remember where I found the printable, I printed them en masse about a year ago and there's nothing on the actual page. If you know who made them, please let me know!

I sort, print, trim and (re) sort my pics then keep them stored by month or page in these little photo storage pockets. Then when I have time to sit down and work on my Project Life album, everything is ready to go and I can enjoy the process. 

I keep some flair items in the little section and my Project Life pens in the drawer. You can see that this organiser can hold a LOT of cards. There's still room to store a lot more 3x4 cards next to the 4x6 if I wanted to.

Some people have had some bad luck with these pens (arriving already dried out) but I've had no problems so far with mine, I love them.

How do you store your Project Life bits and pieces? I'd love to see! Leave me a link or description below.
