Project Life Kit set up

Hello friends,
As promised I am sharing my Project Life set up.  It is very simple and I like it that way.  I don't like spending tons of money on storage...I'd rather spend the money on pretty paper and I know I am NOT alone on that.  I subscribe to a Project Life Kit club.  I have ordered Becky Higgins core kits but become bored with the repetitiveness of the cards and found myself creating my own cards and looking for a variety of products to add to my PL album. And then I found Citrus Twist.

CT February PL Kit

The CT kit is PACKED.  And the stamps are PERFECT.  Every month you get an entire 6x6 paper pad along with a custom stamp set, 4x6 and 3x4 journaling cards (some of which are custom made), embellishments and a few 12x12 papers.  The customer service and community is so great.  I have been a member since Dec 2012 and I have been very pleased with the kits.  Did I mention I also sub to the main kit? CT also has a Blog which has weekly challenges, sneak peeks of upcoming kits, and tutorials; as well an opportunity to post your own projects.  Check it out there is always great inspiration.

Along with my kit I use some 'basics' from my stash, such as Alphabet stamps, date stamps, labels, etc.  I always keep these supplies out on my desk.  I use the Martha Stewart Desktop Organizers

My basic supplies: alpha stamps, 3x4 grid cards, ink

(I'll add a post on my clear stamp storage soon.)

When I get my monthly kit I add it to the organizer:

For product that doesn't fit into my organizer I simply keep in the box it came in.  I keep the entire kit in the box until I'm ready to use it:

I use this method (fancy I know. HA) This is the CT February Main Kit.

This is the top of a Becky Higgins page protector box. 

 The page protectors are not packaged this way anymore. 

I have found it so much easier to work with the contents of a kit as opposed to looking through my stash all the time.  That seems to slow me down.  Although I don't always limit myself to the monthly kit- I also use my stash but generally stick to using the kit. I also find I'm more creative when I limit the supplies I use.  

Pocket Page Protectors: I have accumulated quite a collection over the years. I keep them in an old 12x12 3 ring binder.  They are so much easier to manage now.  

Well that is it! I told you it was simple!  

How did you set up for PL?

 Thanks for stopping by!
