Inside my craft armoire in the dining room, I use shelving purchased at Michael's (Jetmax brand) to house my cardstock. I used to have it arranged by color family (families as dictated by SU), but when SU revamped their collection recently, I felt it made more sense for me to just arrange by color gradient. Think I'll do the same with my scraps when I get a chance.
Thanks for looking.

Oh I just love seeing cardstock all arranged like this by colour - this looks heavenly to me! I can stand for hours in art shops just admiring the shelves of card!

Love this!! I just bought some organizers for my papers over the weekend and some drawers to organize my punches just yesterday. Such timely inspiration, Colleen!! I doubt my results will look anything like your lovely pictures, but I'm going to try

Wow! You've got a lot of 12 x 12! I agree that organizing by color gradient is wonderful. So relaxing. I just bought some JetMax hanging file organizer cubes and am waiting for my DS to put them together for me! Can't wait to get all my cs and dsp in order....right now it's in about six different locations in my craft room. GRRRR!
TFS,

you have the craft room I dream of having. I found storing my cardstock in open end magazine racks from container store to be an awesome way to keep it. It is on end and I can pull from the color I want...just one piece and the rest of the cardstock stays in place. Just fyi...love your organization.

Oooh, so pretty! GREAT job. I may have to change mine around like that too. Currently by color family in hanging folders. I think I would get use it so much more if I had it out to see the pretty colors.
