Hi! Does anyone know where to find 12x12 paper holders that stack. I would prefer clear acrylic. I'd like them to be similar to normal desk letter trays like this one from OfficeMax. Thanks for your help.
I would be concerned with storing paper this way - I have noticed discoloration fairly quicly if the cardstock is exposed to light (even filtered) Not to mention dust
If I had this type of storage, I'd make a custom "dust cover" that could easily pull off and on (or have a curtain-type opening). Some of the beautiful craft rooms I've seen with big windows and lots of natural light would have an effect on paper exposed to the light. I wish I had that problem. I have a craft cave and one of the two windows in the room has a deck above it, so not a lot of natural light. I do cover my paper up just in case though ... wishful thinking that I had natural light aplenty LOL!
On another note, a LSS is closing out in my area. The store doesn't close until the end of the month and the fixtures for storing 12x!2 paper are all tagged with people's names on them. I wish I had the room for one. Metal units with 18 slots that could sit on a table or be mounted to a wall were selling for $25 and wooden units with 30 clear trays similar to the link I posted were selling for $100. The trays alone were worth more than that.

Hi Leslie!
Thanks so much for the idea. I found them on ebay for an unbelievable price. They're in my craftroom put together, but I haven't put any paper in them yet. Have to do some major reorganizing. I appreicate your help!

Hi Leslie! A dust cover....good idea. My room is usually a cave too. There are windows, but they're usually totally covered. Not a lot of light in there.
Sorry the store is closing, but lots of opportunity for people to get good deals.
Brenda,
Did yours come with some "dividers?" Mine came with a bunch of long clear "ruler-like" piece of clear plastic that are slotted. I'm assuming they are some type of dividers, but I'm not sure how to use them.
