I Heart Organizing: Katie's Arts & Crafts Things

This year, I am on a mission to tidy up or toss it out. I want things to be orderly. I want to know where things are. And I don't want an avalanche of stuff to fall out of the cabinet on me while I am looking for something. So I am going to try to document my organizing! My first project was the drawers at the desk area in the kitchen. I hadn't decided to start this series, so this can be the first of hopefully many! Lately, Katie's arts & crafts items have been bugging me. They were just kinda thrown onto a shelf in the cabinet designated for Katie's things - snacks, bowls, cups, Pedialyte, etc. I also didn't like it because everytime I went to get a new cup out, Katie saw all of the fun things in there and always wanted me to get the out to play with. This morning, I made a trip to Office Depot to remedy the situation. It was quite easy to do. And I think it made a world of difference. Take a look at the before & after....

Looks MUCH better, don't you think?? I love the purple design! And I do have a label maker that I plan to use on them to identify what is in each box. :)
