paper storage

Hi mamas,
Hopefully someone here can help. I'm having a terrible time coming up with an efficient way to store paper for my son's crafts. It's all different sizes and types, and I don't want to just stack it because then it's hard to get to the paper on the bottom. What have you done for storage?

Thanks!

I'm thinking this is they type of community in which a tags system would be rather beneficial, so I've added tags to posts as they are posted. the list is short now, obviously, and only I can create new tags, but if you could, go through the list and see if anything applies, and tag your posts? I'll add extra ones if needs be, but I've noticed some ( Read more... )
