STORAGE SOLUTIONS

In the never ending quest to get my scrapspace organized I'm always on the lookout for fun ways to house my seemingly endless supply of stuff.  Every once in a while I come across the perfect item to store those hard-to-store tools and supplies. Take a look below at some of my favorite finds.

The two tiered wired baskets are from Crate and Barrel. I originally got the idea to use these for rubber stamp storage from another fabulous scrapbooker, Keisha Campbell. These baskets are  considered a seasonal item so I was lucky to nab the last three that were in the store. 

The large glass jar is another great discovery from Crate and Barrel. The jars come in various sizes and are perfect for those assorted pieces of ribbon that are too small to fit on a spool or ribbon card.  I originally bought the smaller sized jar just under this one but when I filled it with ribbon, it was so tight, I  could barefly fit my hand in it to get what I needed.  I suggest going with the larger jar like this so you'll have plenty of room to dig for that perfect colorful string of ribbon.

I got this wonderful vase from a garden shop. It was part of a display and was holding artificial flowers. Needless to say, I saw the potential right away. I love the vintage roughness and the handpainted flowers are the perfect touch. Another great storage idea for my stippling and stencil brushes.

 

I think it's amazing what kinds of things provide wonderful storage solutions. So keep your eyes peeled and on the lookout. You never know when you will luck up on the perfect solution for your stash.

Thanks for visiting.

Good luck on all your scrapbooking and crafting projects!
