My boyfriend and his two daughters just moved in with me and one just started Kindergarten. As there are many new and exciting things for all of us to get used to during this process, one of the biggest shocks has been the sudden lack of space and storage (as I am sure many of you established families are suffering from as well). I found a link to this blog on Pinterest for making a book out of Christmas/Holiday cards and it inspired me.
We desperately needed a place to store all of the overwhelming number of wonderful projects our Kindergartner is bringing home. I am not ready to throw them away and she loves going back through them to ready them. Instead I added page protectors to a binder and put all the flat papers in there.
For the 3D items, I took gallon sized Ziploc bags, 3 Hole punched them and placed them in a binder. The binder goes on the shelf with their books and voila! It protects and preserves them and no more projects everywhere.
I am always crafting and creating. There is no one medium I prefer or haven't tried for that matter. Floral arranging, stained glass, jewelry, resin, photography, scrapbooking, etc. I am my own inspiration and find inspiration in others. My wish for this blog is a place where I can share all the successful and not so successful DIY projects/gifts/ideas as I try them. I hope you enjoy and find my thoughts as fun, exciting and not so much trial and error as I have experienced!

ReplyDeleteBrilliant! That's how I store my center ideas at school but wouldn't have thought to do the same for projects at home!
