Pattern Box

 If you are anything like me, you have too many patterns.  (Just ask my husband.)  I love digital patterns!!  I have been creating my own (like for my ETSY Shop) and I love Peek-a-Boo Patterns (check out the link on the sidebar), so I keep downloading them.  But I have no where to put them, so they just keep stacking up on tables, chairs, desks, you name it.

So I have finally devised a system that seems to be working for me.  Or until my box fills up!

I got a box. A small enough one that I could put it on my table.  I covered it with some contact paper.

Next, I used file folders to label and stash all my patterns.  Since I don't have a filing cabinet, this was my best choice.  

 

I placed in on my table and now I have some space on my table at home!  Nice huh!

I love getting organized!!!  It makes me feel so productive.

Don't have any patterns?  Check out the sidebar for our Etsy Patterns and Peek-a-boo Patterns!  They have some great patterns to add to your pattern box!

Summer Chevron Tote

 
Summer is coming and do I have the beach tote for you!  Check out our Summer Chevron Tote Pattern in our Etsy Shop!!

Not only is it great for taking your sunscreen to the beach, but it is a great way to organize your home!  Use it to organize your baby's "fancy creams and lotions".

I use mine as the diaper bag for our baby!  The outside pockets are the perfect size for diapers, wipes, toys and even bottles.  The big inner pocket can hold a blanket, toys, clothes, anything you can think of to fill it with.

 

It is also a great way to store and carry cleaning supplies!  All you'd need is a thicker interfacing.  Isn't it the perfect size for all your sprays!!  You can fit your paper towel, rags, and gloves in it as well.

 

OR...use it to organize all your crafting supplies or fabrics!  Use a pocket for your crayons and markers, or for your sewing tools, rulers or paints and dyes.

 

This really is a great organizing tool, but also very cute and fashionable!  Want more information?

Check it out in our Get Your Crap Together Etsy Shop!!
