Time to get organized! Quick Tip Tuesday!

As part of the Creative Cutter Room design team I would like to share this quick tip with you!
I don't have a lot of time to craft between work, family and household chores, so to make my crafting time more productive I first spent my time getting organized!
I decided it would be easier to sort my supplies by theme and holiday!
Here are some examples of how I sorted:
These three drawers hold:
baby, school and travel

This larger bin holds Halloween and Fall

This 12X12 Sleeve holds Memorial Day and the 4th of July

Now when I craft I can easily pull out the bin I need and have all the supplies right on hand! This has been saving me so much time! Instead of looking for the stickers, and stamps I know I have some where I can get right to creating!

I also decided to tackle my dreaded ribbon! It took about 2 hours but it is done and now the ribbon is usable! and all this ribbon...


Fit into this!


 
Check out my super quick tip video!

I hope you enjoyed my quick tips!

    Did you purchase the bin with the holes or did you make it. If so how? Thanks :)

    Great tips. I especially like the ribbon box. Did you drill holes in a plastic tub? I see you all over the blog world, I love your talents. Hugs, Pam
