Storing Paper for Easy Access

A helpful tip to add to your painting knowledge.

By , About.com Guide

I started using sheets of rice paper and became facinated with the texture and colors and purchased many sheets. Storing them became quite a problem and finding the one I wanted meant going through all of them each time. I saw a holder at a art shop but it was made by the manufacturer of the paper for stores only. It dawned on me I had a great display rack myself: the rack I used to dry clothes in a bathtub. One of those folding wood ones. It works great! I now can see all my papers and they do not get rolled or crushed! Be sure to tape the rack in the open position so it does not fold up on you when you move it!
