Getting Organized

Today I have a tip for you instead of a card.  Remember the Valentine treat that I made out of a plastic baby food container??  Well, I have another use for those containers that I'd like to share with you.



I love to save containers of all sizes to either upcycle or use in some way.  The plastic baby food containers are so handy for many things.  My favorite use is storage in my craft room.  I keep extra punch outs and die cuts neatly organized in containers and on a shelf for easy access.  I can't tell you how much time I've saved by just reaching for a container and already having a butterfly die cut ready to go.



I will usually die cut extra butterflies or hearts whenever I make a card so I have extras for when I'm in a hurry.  And my 8 year old daughter loves to dig through my extras and make cards of her own.







I hope you enjoyed today's quick organizing tip!  See you tomorrow for this week's Thursday Challenge from Create with Connie and Mary.

Great idea! I tend to save small containers for left overs but now will start using them for small punched pieces instead if plastic bags....thank you!
