Button earring holder

Traveling with earrings has always been a problem for me.  I usually put all of my earrings together in a small bag and when it comes time to finding a pair to wear, it's a mess.  The earrings are tangled together and the little earrings are always hiding.  This simple trick is a great way to organize your earrings in a way that each pair of earrings stays together and are easy to access.  All you do is get a button and put the earrings through the holes.  It's just that simple!

Reused frosting containers

Do you buy frosting containers and just throw them away or recycle them once they are empty?   There are so many great ways you can REUSE them.  I absolutely love frosting containers.  They are great for storing and it's so easy to make them look cute and decorative.  I use them in my classroom to store a variety of supplies.   You can even keep the lids on the containers if you are storing smaller items.

Ribbon organization

I absolutely love ribbon!  It's a great way to spice up anything.  While ribbon is so cute, fun, pretty, etc., it can be so messy.  Here's a solution to that messy problem.  

 Materials needed:
* Pencils
* Pencil erasers
* Ribbon

Put a pencil through the holes of ribbon spools.  Cap the pencils off with an eraser.  Wallah!  You're done.  Such a quick and easy organizational project!

 This makes it so easy to look at your selections of ribbon.

Organization

Anyone that knows me pretty well knows that I am crazy about ORGANIZING.  My husband even bought me a label maker last Christmas to help with my organizational needs! Above my washer and dryer and in bathroom cabinets I had a lot of cluttery areas.  It was driving me crazy so I did something about it.

*  I bought some new clear plastic shoe tubs from Wal-Mart for $1 each.
*  I organized and laid all my items into the tubs they belong in
*  I used my label maker to make labels of what was in each box
*  They stack so nicely, keep things organized, and help you find things easily.

I absolutely love how clean they make an area look!  I will continue to add tubs as I get more things.

        

        

My next organization projects will be in my classroom.  Stay tuned!
