Peg Board Storage Wall

12" x 12" acrylic trays are a great way to store your paper neatly, while protecting it and keeping it handy.

Are you spending more time searching for supplies and tools than actually cropping? Get those minutes back by installing a peg board storage wall for all your paper and materials. Scrapbooking expert Rebecca Ludens demonstrates the installation with the help of host Sandi Genovese.

Small containers can house eyelets, fasteners, and other scrapbooking minutiae that often gets lost.

2 - 4' lengths 1" x 2"
2 - 1' 9" lengths of 1" x 2"
package of #10 2" wood screws
washers
drill with bit slightly smaller than screws
Phillips screw driver attachment for drill
pencil
stud detector
level
20, 12" x 12" Paper Station Trays (Display Dynamics)
assorted pegboard organizers as desired

Steps:

1. Use stud detector to ind studs on the wall you will be securing the pegboard to. Mark the studs with a pencil.

2. Pre-drill holes into the 1" x 2" and screw them to the wall forming a 2' x 4' rectangle. Use level to keep rectangle straight along the wall. Secure the 1" x 2" at each spot crossing a stud, forming a securely framed anchor for the peg board wall.
