Sweet Treats 3D Box for Organization

This is a short How-To video on making a 3D box to hold some of my itty bitties from my dry erase board.  I have been working on downsizing my studio from 2 rooms back down to 1 room.  That is a big chore but it will be worth it in the end.
Here is my dry erase board, my Grandkids love to play and draw all over it.  Sadly it has to go to make room for my Ikea Kaylex unit that I have in the other room.

These are the 2 Kaylex units that I will be putting in the other room Ugh!  Lots of rearranging and organizing going on.  Purging is a good thing to do often not just once in awhile.  Lol!  Note to self.

Here are the boxes that I made.  I will probably make more.  The finished size is 5 x 5 x 3  They ended up the perfect size for what I needed.

Here is the video.

Thanks for stopping by!

February is a Great Month to Get Organized

Well looking around my Craft Room I am well aware of what organization can do.  When things have a place to go you will usually put them there.  I wanted to share with you just a few of our products that will easily get you on the right track.
A place for everything and everything in it's place.
First off I wanted to share with you our special Hostess Workshop Wonder Bundle.  For the month of February when you have a qualifying gathering you can get this Workshop Wonder Bundle for 50% off.  That is a huge savings!
This gives you a place for your crafting essentials.

You can set it up in any way that works for you. The best part about this system is that you can expand it if you want.

In My Scrapbook Room

Here are a couple of pictures of my Scrapbook Room and my class.  It's kind of a before and after.
I have really enjoyed having my classes and getting to know new friends.  My classes are starting to grow bigger thanks to my ladies that will bring a friend or two.   I just wanted to share with you some of the fun that we have.  

Here is a before:

Here is the after or I guess I should say the during:  This is just one of my groups.  Thanks Ladies for all the fun and laughs.

Stamp Set Organizing and Storage

One of the things I love the most about Close To My Heart is the My Acrylic Stamp Sets.  They are clear, pliable, and not hard.  They come in a slim plastic carrier that is easy to store and does not take up much room.  We also carry this My Acrylix Organizer for $12.95 #Z1038 that holds 15 stamp sets.

  I use this when I travel too.  I can put all the stamps I need for a class that I am teaching or when I travel.
Since I have so many now here is the way I store mine.  I found these baskets at IKEA for $6.00 each.  They fit the stamps sets perfectly.  Each basket holds a different color.  I arrange them by Color first then by Letter and then by number.  This makes it very easy to find the one I need.  More to come on my Stamp Binder!!!
So here is one of the baskets with the stamp sets in it and did I mention that I can get at least 50 stamp sets in each basket.  Oh yes I can!

As you can see below I offset every other one.  This makes it easy to go through the sets when I am looking for a specific one.  It also makes it easy to see where they go when you put them back. Having all the like colors together is handy too.

Below is how I have them all arranged in my scrap room on the shelves.  Each basket has a color square on the front to let you find that color set, fast.  Well! I guess you already noticed that some have two baskets for a color.  I know! I know!  really do you need that many.  Just remember that I have been using CMTH products for a long time.  Since 1995 and I love them just as much today as I did when I started.  If only I had signed up to be an Independent Consultant then........ If you would like to know more about becoming a consultant too and join my team just let me know.  I will be happy to help you.

I hope this helps with an idea about storing CMTH stamp set.  I don't think you can do this with any other stamp sets, from any other company out there. All my Customers have a great time looking through my binder for just the right stamp they want to use.  I photo copy each set, label it with the name on the stamp set, the number, and the color then place it in my binder.  Check back often to find out more about my binder.  You will love that one too.  Better yet become a follower so you don't miss out.                  How do you store your CMTH stamp sets?  Let me know.

CMTH Products that I love

Exclusive Inks Organizer:

My CMTH Markers and Stamp pads are all kept in one place.  This tower is one of my favorites. It keeps all 60 colors at my fingertips and it is on a swivel base.  You can purchase a tray that fits on top (the handles lay down flat).  I use it to hold my StazOn Ink pads and some Re-inkers.  There is also a  padded Carrying Case that it all fits in.

This is one of my must haves.  It keeps it all in one place and with the swivel base you have access to every side of it. 

You can purchase the Tower in one piece or in separates for the Stamp Pads or the Markers, the tray, and the base.

If you would like one just click on my shop with me button.  If you would like to know more about other products just let me know.  I love CMTH and I know you will too.  Click here to order yours.
