How do you store your scraps?

I store mine with the collection until it is just about all gone and then I just put them into a container if they are large enough to save and if it is a piece I think I would use for something. I really need to find a better way to store them, so that I can them used up.

I do mine basically the same as Brenda

I store my scraps in a scrap container. If there are larger pieces that go with a collection I place it back with the collection.

I have a rolly crate that I put legal hanging folders in. In each folder, I have a plastic Craftkeeper and I have them divided into colors, and pattern papers with the major color. So the folder has 1 for blues, and 1 for blue pp. I started this years ago, and altho, I use scraps on 98% of my LOs, cards, as many as I do, I am up to 2 rolly crates. I can roll them out of the way, or slide them under the table...... whatever...
And I keep 99% of my scraps.
Its amazing sometimes - to find just the right piece for something. One I never would have thought of. Its like finding a treasure! lol

I keep mine with the collection in it's baggie until almost used up and then I file it in an expandable folder by color. I don't keep small scraps, they usually have to be pretty good size or I end up collecting a ton and it is rarely ever used.

I keep them in the collection until its almost gone. Then I would but them in a drawer for my daughter to use. But recently I have bought on of those cube filing cabinets and I plan to store my scraps in there by color and/or manufacturers.

I'm the same but I have colour blocked all my scraps so no matter how large all left overs go straight into the storage box (Plastic Tub) and only after I have snipped all the messy bits off. That might be a bit OCD tee hee, but its so much easier to grab the right colour or pattern when I need it.
