Craft & School Supply Organization Hint #9:  Use Clear Plastic Shoeboxes to Store Supplies

Inside our craft closet, I have quite a few shoeboxes piled up with various craft and school items.  Over the years, I’ve bought a few here and there.  Generally, I was able to find them for right about $1, so it wasn’t too pricey over time.

I love that they are clear, so I can see what is inside of them easily.  If you buy the same kind, they also stack nicely.

We use them for:

• Markers
• Crayons
• Glue
• Stickers
• Ballooning
• Math games
• Flashcards/notecards
• Stamping
• Misc.
• Pipe cleaners/pom-poms
• Fun foam/felt
• Paint
• Modeling clay
• Glitter and glitter glue
• Play dough
• Cookie Cutters
• Books on tape (yes, we still have some cassette tapes!!)
