Scrapbook Organization Made Easy! Treasures and Trinket Thursday!

Howdy my bloggy friends!
I hope you’re having a lovely week!
I have had, what I believe to be, the flu,
so my week has been less than wonderful!(achoo!..bless me! )

Oh well! It’s time for our Treasures and Trinkets Thursday Linky Party
and I’m linking up some wonderful little
Organizational Treasures!
Link up something you love, or something you’ve organized!

(and if it’s not too much trouble, could you link back to this post..thanks, I knew you would..you all are just special like that!)

How many of you have TONS of these tiny little scrapbooking/card-making pieces laying around?

I have LOADS of them, and they were
EVERYWHERE!

I found this little box of containers marked down at Walmart.

(It says $14.00, but I think I got them for $11.00….
not too bad for 30!)
They’re Martha Stewart wedding favor boxes…
but I had other ideas for them!

I picked up several packs of these heavy duty magnets
while I was in there…they have adhesive backs.

Aren’t these the cutest little containers..and they’re metal!
So sweet!

I put two of the magnets on the back of each container….some of my embellishments are heavy, so I wanted extra strength!

Then I started sorting and boxing! 

I put all the items in these that I use the most!

For the items I don’t use quite as often, 
I found this little contraption at
Tuesday Mornings!

Do these little compartments remind you of anything?

Yep, you could do this with the little medicine dispensers sold in the pharmacy department!

I went ahead and got this because it was marked down to $7.00 and it has the little book they go in.  It also has extra storage on the other side.  But hey, if you don’t care about that, you could probably find these little pill storage boxes at the
Dollar Tree or Dollar Store
and have storage galore for your little items! (or it would be great for earrings too for traveling or home!….so many possibilities!)

I also straightened up my craft ribbons, tags, and all my other
scrapbooking goodies in this office storage box…





MUCH NEATER!
(if you’d like to make a wrapping station for your gift wrapping ribbon go here,
the ribbon I use in this box is strictly
for card-making)

Here’s a look at everything all nice and neat!

I just stuck the little metal boxes on the front of my metal
file cabinet in my scrapbooking area and they work like a charm!

AND, I still had tons left for future uses!
( I used some for spices in my kitchen!)
Handy, handy!

Well that’s it for today!
Hope you have a  great week!
Hugs!
