Ever since I was little my favorite gifts were the ones my dad made out of wood. Well, my dad is in his 70's now and his handmade gifts are still my favorite ones to receive. After complaining about my stash of paper and never being able to find what I needed or running out of a certain color at the wrong time, my dad asked what my ideal shelf would look like. Well, he built it! I use 8.5 x 11 paper the most so wanted it to be able to hold two colors on each side but I also wanted it to be deep enough to hold 12 x 12 for DP and SS Kits. I used the SU! labels to indicate colors and sorted all of my paper out. Found out I had run out of one color and had various 12 x 12 papers that I didn't know about. I am definitely paper organized now!! TFL

Wow what a beautiful gift; I am sure he put in a lot of work on it too. What a wonderful keepsake. Tell you Dad we on SCS are jealous (a bit) and applaud him for his work!
