Embellishment storage

Here are some more organizing techniques I use...

Those of you who are avid scrappers and crafters need somewhere to put your brads, skittles, and stickles! I have a craftmates holder with the small compartments for my brads and skittles. They are organized by color.

Then, I have a scrapcessories bottle caddy for my stickles! They have alot of wonderful storage solutions! You should check out their site! www.scrapcessories.com

Jetmax Cubes

If you are a scrapper, you know that Jetmax cubes are "the thing" to have for your storage solution! Here's how I have mine set up. I like the large drawer on the bottom for organizing many different things like adhesives, reinkers, ink pads, glitter, embossing powders, etc...



I like the smaller shelves for storage of my stickles (will show how I hold them in my next post!), skittles, paper trimmers, and brads.



Some day my craft room will consist of all jetmax cubes- although I'd really like some pegboard to store all of my tools and unopened items so they all sit in front of me! You know that saying "out of sight, out of mind." Well, I sure do forget what I have sometimes, so it would be nice to have it all out in the open!



Happy Wednesday!

Ribbon Storage Solution

Hello to all of my followers! I am very happy to see my count go up! Thanks for following me! I hope to inspire all of you!

Lately I've been in spring cleaning mode. A friend of mine showed me this blog that has an awesome storage solution! I currently own the Making Memories Embellisment Center, and loved the idea of the ribbon holders... until I emptied a spool of ribbon... Then it was PAIN!!! You had to remove the rod that the spools were on just to get that one empty spool off!

So, here's my solution:

I used the cardboard off of the back of 12x12 paper packs and cut them in 2x2.75.

I purchased my three drawer unit to hold 8 1/2 x 11 paper from Big Lots for $6.50! I thought that was a steal!

I used up the rubber bands I had left from making my sister in laws diaper cake!

So, overall, I only paid $6.50 to do this solution! This week my focus will be on storage options for your craft room... I hope to help everyone find something suitable for them!


Have a Happy Tuesday!
