Organizational Find #3

Happy Monday Everyone! I wanted to share a great find with all of you who may be looking for a storage solution for your Copic Markers. I wanted to get something that I could display my markers at home to make it easier to work on cards/projects. I was at Target the other day and found the perfect solution. It is a  made by Rubbermaid. It is a cube 12.1 in x 12.1 in x 6.4 in called Bento. It has flex dividers built into the cube which allow you the freedom to decide the size of the cube you want to use. The great thing I loved about this cube was that it is stackable and also they sell a cover that goes over the top which is great because I have a 2.5yr old that I do not want getting into my markers. The height is perfect for Copic Markers as you can see below so that you can still stack them if you wish. Rubbermaid makes 5 different sizes and shapes of these boxes with the flex dividers.
So in this cube I have 258 markers and it doesn't even fill up all the dividers. I thought it would be more difficult to have them out of numeric order as I used to keep my markers in the 72 marker wallets, but I have been coloring several images over the past few days and I have been able to find my colors quickly and easily just like before. So I am really excited to have found this item. I hope this helps some of you.

Happy Scraptastic Monday!

More Organizing

Here is another organizing project that I tackled the other night. If you all are anything like me I can't help but buy the 1.00 stamps out of the bin at Michaels and before I knew it I had a whole tub of these stamps. I have been thinking for several weeks now "how could I store these so that I can see what I have to use them for little sentiments/tags on projects. So after a quite a lot of thinking and a little inspiration from Amy Rysavy on YT, I came up with this storage system for my stamps. It took me forever as I had to cute down most of the images and put double side tape on each stamp to ensure they would fit inside the case. I was able to fit 8 sets   in each CD case. I liked the idea of inserting a scrap of white cardstock into the CD case for easier viewing so thanks for the idea Amy. This was a tedious task but I do like how clean and organized it came out.
     So luckily I only have about 10 more sets that I need to categorize and then I will be finished, but it is getting late here so better save it for tomorrow. I am sure tomorrow I will find more organizing projects to tackle since I have been in de-clutter mode lately. Happy scrapping everyone!

Certified Professional Organizer?

    Lately I have been on this organizing kick and trying different methods for storing my stamps and nestabilities. So after messing around with this Avery wizard program for a few hours I was finally able to figure out how to do labels and spines for my stamp/nestabilities dies binders. Here are a few pictures showing what I came up with. I did take some inspiration from Chris416ward on YT so thank you Christina. I had to make a few tweaks due to my space constraint. I do not know what I would ever do without my Brother Label maker. So I hope this helps some of you with your storage needs as well.


Have a Scraptastic Day!!
