Creative Memories, I think the best thing you have done is hire Noreen as your Product Development Creative Manager. She is the BEST. She's knowledgeable, informative, explains things so we can easily understand, she's a great demonstrator, and she has a wonderful personality and smile. I so look forward to her weekly live events on Wednesdays. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Hi! Noreen here...thanks so much for your very kind comments! I'm glad my demos are helpful and I'll look forward to seeing you online for future F&F Projects with Noreen!
I wholeheartedly agree! Noreen is always so prepared. She is extremely knowledgeable. I am always impressed that she knows the names of the products! These Wednesday Fast & Fun Projects are something I look forward to each week!
I need more organization for supplies. So glad I found this video. Even though a year old, it is still very useful. I learned that my power project folders won’t stand upright in the Kallax cubes. I will need to buy the Power Simple Folders.
Love this organized video.. My hubby does wrap bands around his clubs and stores them in the trunk of car.. in a trash bag for when he does do his hobby. LOL
Hi Noreen! I use an Ikea type of desk organizer for my 12", personal trimmers & idea booklets which stand tall in the back. Middle is great for foam squares, pictures and note pads. Front is great for adhesive, post it notes as well as the corner rounder.
Hi Candace! Noreen here...great idea! It would be awesome if you could share a photo in the Virtual Crop FB Group of your system when your products arrive!
I'm watching this in September. I use the display cases for all of my collections in the power project folders. The pods hold a lot for a project, put into the 2 pod inserts. I really like to store plus taking to a crop.
Hi Teri! Noreen here...yes...usually I'm standing and my camera is close to me. I had to figure out a wider angle camera shot in order to show the PODs more effectively! I'll probably be standing again the next time you see me ha ha!
Unfortunately I bought several of the Power Project Folders and they are great for storing CM products but it's really, really hard to store the folder itself. I am not sure why someone would want to put the POD in a Kallax unit, that doesn't make a lot of sense to me. But either way, I do wish CM would change up the Power Project Folder to fit better in Kallax unit or in some other storage system. The Display does not work well as a storage for these because you can only do a few before it starts getting smaller.
Great explanations and descriptions of use. Thank you. Can you share about the insert in your Kallax system that you have the punches sitting on. That's the next challenge.
Hi Barbara - Noreen here...because I live in Canada I use products similar to Stamp N Storage items that are made locally...with the exchange rate and shipping it is cost prohibitive to use the Stamp N Storage brand!
Hi Rita! Noreen here...I have current punches in the inserts behind me...retired BMCs and punches that I keep for personal use are stored in the older, smaller sized modular drawer units from Michael's that are stacked on the wall opposite my desk. I categorize them and label the drawers so they are easy to find and to put away!
Perhaps your trimmer is outdated. The blades for the current 12” Trimmer and for the Decorative Trimmer are readily available on your advisors website.
Hi Anita! Sally mentioned this below...check to see if your trimmer is the current model. Your advisor can help or you can visit the CM site for your country (US, CAN or AUS) and go to Shop>Trimmers and Blades.
@@CreativeMemoriesVids Thanks for your help. My trimmer is less than a year old and my problem is with the Creative Memories web site. When I try to order something, it just keeps "thinking" endlessly. Not sure what is wrong.
Hi Cathy! Noreen here...apparently BHG brand at Walmart in the states or the cub shelves from a store called "Bunnings" in Australia are the same size as the Kallax from Ikea.
I'm sorry but that little hinge piece is not enough to prevent damage to the folders, boxes, and albums placed inside. "Isn't too big a deal", you say but yes it is, CM products are expensive because they are quality, why risk the damage? What was CM thinking not allowing enough space to store things properly?

100%
ABSOLUTELY!!! I could not agree more. She is a HUGE asset to the company!!
I wholeheartedly agree! Noreen is always so prepared. She is extremely knowledgeable. I am always impressed that she knows the names of the products! These Wednesday Fast & Fun Projects are something I look forward to each week!
I'm new, but I totally agree. Her being authentic was one reason I was attracted to company.

You are the BEST demonstrator of CM products.
Hi Leslie! Noreen here...thanks so much for your kind words! I'm glad my demos are helpful!
You are so very thorough in explaining product details and uses!! Thank you 💕
Hi! Noreen here...you are so welcome...glad they are helpful!
Totally agree!
This was very helpful! Thank you, Noreen! At first I didn’t think I needed the new large POD, but now I’m eager to order ASAP!
Love this organized video.. My hubby does wrap bands around his clubs and stores them in the trunk of car.. in a trash bag for when he does do his hobby. LOL

I use wire rack in my POD to give a stadium effect to my paper. Excited to get mine to have the new blue show through.

Great information! Thanks Noreen!
Mine will arrive today and I can’t wait!
Hi Tracy! Noreen here...happy organizing!
So excited to watch you on my birthday!
Hi Miss Lorelei! Noreen here...glad you join me and hope your birthday was wonderful!!!
I think this is the first time I’ve seen you sitting at your desk, lol
Hi Teri! Noreen here...yes...usually I'm standing and my camera is close to me. I had to figure out a wider angle camera shot in order to show the PODs more effectively! I'll probably be standing again the next time you see me ha ha!
Thank you , that was very helpful!
Hi JoAnne! Noreen here...glad to hear that!
Do you save your punch boxes or throw them away? If you save them where do you store them?
Always great ideas-thanks.

I believe she has the Stamp n Storage Ikea punch holders for CM.
Thanks so much for sharing
Zanesville, Ohio says hello
I will continue to use the display cases so I can use my power project folders
Hi Steph! Noreen here...yes...use what works best for you!
@@CreativeMemoriesVids I may use the pods for hauling my sale papers to crops tho! May work well for that!!
Hi Noreen! Thanks for this great video! Did you use the StampNStorage inserts for Kallax for your Makers?
Hi Barbara - Noreen here...because I live in Canada I use products similar to Stamp N Storage items that are made locally...with the exchange rate and shipping it is cost prohibitive to use the Stamp N Storage brand!
How are you storing your punches, and border punches?
Hi Rita! Noreen here...I have current punches in the inserts behind me...retired BMCs and punches that I keep for personal use are stored in the older, smaller sized modular drawer units from Michael's that are stacked on the wall opposite my desk. I categorize them and label the drawers so they are easy to find and to put away!
I see that you have dividers for your border stamps. Just wondering where you got them?
I'm having problems ordering replacement strait blades for my trimmer. Can you help? Thanks Anita

Speaking if the rolling cart are they revising them?
Hi Leslie! Noreen here...to the best of my knowledge there are no plans to revise the rolling cart at this time.
Are the paper inserts in the Kallax unit also from IKEA?
Hi Cindy! Noreen here...yes they are simply called "KALLAX Insert with 4 shelves".
So what's the big purpose of the new pods?
Hi Heather! To sort, organize, store, protect and transport your supplies!
Will the rolling carts become available again?
So true😂

Noreen please spell or list the name of your cube storage system. It sounds like Tal.... Who carries it?? Never heard of it before... TIA
It's Kallax. It's available from Ikea only.
Hi Cathy! Noreen here...apparently BHG brand at Walmart in the states or the cub shelves from a store called "Bunnings" in Australia are the same size as the Kallax from Ikea.
has the rolling cart been discontinued???
Yes. : (
