Good question, I ususally start out with all holidays in one section of a 12 x 12 paper holder with dividers. I also have a stand up type file that I use.
i have mine separated the same way for both solid and printed, labeled with the su name, ie, more mustard, for the printed papers i find it's dominant su color and that's where i put it
My patterned papers are a real hotchpotch of brands. I have them sorted into Spots and Dots, Stripes, Floral, Geometric, basically monochrome, Christmas and maybe a couple of other categories. Not by colour at all...I use a Cropper Hopper folder and it works fine, I usually manage to find what I want quite quickly.
I have a section in my paper sorter for each season, a section that has paper for baby/children, a section for travel, and then sections by color. I put my plain CS at the front of each color section, then the patterned paper behind it, by shade.

How do you organize your patterned paper? I have all this great paper but I never know what I have because it is just in one big pile.
:confused:
All my patterned papers are Stampin' Up!. I have some 3 drawer Sterilite things that I bought from Target. They are 12 x 12. I put the patterned paper (like Urban Garden, Holiday Treasures) in one drawer. I put the patterned paper that you can get by color in one drawer. I put the smaller bits in one drawer.
I keep the cardboard that the papers come with on top of each one with the white side & the name info facing up. These work kind of like file folders or separators. I can quickly flip through each color pack by just putting my finger in for the next cardboard piece knowing that just under it are the Designer Papers that go with what's listed on the white board.
