 WOW July 25, 2008
I am thoroughly impressed with this book. The ideas are great! Throughout this guide, you'll see creative ways to organize paper, ephemera, photos, and all kinds of supplies. At first glance the ideas may seem expensive, but most can be adapted using inexpensive or recycled containers and materials (think shoe boxes, clean jam jars, etc) -- including those little scraps of paper that can become labels and much more.
Though be warned, it all seems very time consuming, but time spent upfront organizing will help when it comes to having materials easily accessed when working on layouts. The organizing tips helpful, but there are also numerous scrapbook page ideas to boot! Inspiring for scrapbookers, artists and creative types trying to organzize a workroom or studio.

This book was just what I needed to figure out just what kind of scrapbooking space I wanted to create. I was able to see what style would work for me. I had tried several things in my scrapping space and it never seemed to work. Now I have used this book to help me create a wonderful creative room!! It is pretty too!!
Beautiful Book! May 25, 2008
Beautiful spiral-bound book! I enjoy looking at the fabulous photos of the various scrap rooms and of all the organizational containers. Gives lots of great ideas. And plenty of fun reading and instruction on how to organize the many embellishments and paper we love to collect! Excellent book. It even looks pretty just sitting on my shelf. Worth every penny! Very happy that I bought it.

At first glance this book can appear to state the obvious. However, if the reader takes time to think about the fundamental questions the authors pose, there is a catalyst for inspiration. The purpose of the book is to get to the heart of why a person is inspired to scrapbook (which is highly personal).
If you take time to think through the questions, the book will serves its purpose to inspire you and and help you create an organizational style that works for you.
My only suggestion is that the resource guide could be more robust and specific so it would be easier for the reader to purchase products that meet their needs.
AWESOME BOOK May 5, 2008
This book is THE BEST. It is not your ordinary "how to get organized" book. It takes you much deeper and asks you questions that get you to the ideal room or space to get you inspired. The short questions at the end of each chapter are amazing and have really gotten me thinking deeper about not only my room but about what and how I scrapbook.
I would encourage you to read the book and not just jump to the end to look at the samples. It's a quick read because it's very interesting and takes you through the various areas/sections of your room.
I would certainly recommend this book to anyone that's serious about getting organized.
