Kids' Papers
February 24, 2011
Not sure about at your place, but here my two munchkins seems to produce rather a LOT of drawings, stories and other assorted paper creations. I've been working on some ways to store them, then to sort and display the ones we want to keep longer term.
I found these 2 cheap tubs at the supermarket and used my Timeless Type sizzlits and Big Shot, along with a box of cardstock scraps to cut letters for their names. I used contact to attach them to the tub.
Plan is to use these to quickly and easily pack up current papers, projects, drawings, stories and what not. Then when the tub is getting full we'll have a bit of a sort and pick out some treasures to put into plastic pockets in a folder.
Here's a couple of folders I decorated on the weekend using Island Oasis DSP, and some alphabet stamps - Lovely Letters for Hannah and Just Perfect alphabet for Jack.
Circle punches came in handy too - 1" and 1 1/4".
So we'll see how this plan goes for keeping our papers in a little more order! Hmmm - should get onto my craft area and set a better example shouldn't I!!
Cheers, Sue
Great ideas Sue, there only so much room on the fridge door for the kids artwork
